No Need for 300, Just Give Tom Brady Five

Thursday, February 2nd, 2012
Patriots Giants Super Bowl

THIS... IS... BOSTON!

NEPD Editor: James Christensen

In the battle of Thermopylae, made famous by the movie “300″, the Persian King Xerxes trotted out a seemingly never-ending procession of exotic warriors.

Perry Fewell, defensive coordinator for the Giants, has a similar array of weapons aimed at disrupting the Patriots passing attack.

The Patriots offensive line, just like the Spartan heroes on the silver screen, will need to hold out for as long as they can. Fortunately for New England, their blockers will need to be vigilant for only around three seconds, as opposed to three days.

Patriots vs Colts: Opposites Attract

Patriots vs Colts 2011

No Manning-Face this Sunday... at least on the playing field.

NEPD Staff Writer: Doug Kyed

Are you guys ready for a bold prediction?

I believe the Patriots are going to beat the Colts on Sunday afternoon. I know, I know, I’m really going out on a limb with that one, but I really think the Patriots stand a chance to come away from Gillette with a victory.

This isn’t going to be your typical pregame article, because there’s really not much to be worried about with this year’s team. The biggest thing we have to worry about is which end zone is Dan Orlovsky going to run out of to cause a safety.

Patriots OT Options for 2011

After drafting Nate Solder with their first pick of the 2011 draft, the Patriots have put themselves in an interesting situation regarding the bookends of their offensive line this season. Matt Light being a free agent further complicates that situation.

Had Light been signed an extra year, the decision would have been simple, continue to start Light at LT and groom either Sebastian Vollmer or Solder as the future protector of Tom Brady’s blindside. As it stands, I think the Patriots have six options.

Sebastian Vollmer: Breakout Candiate?

Sebastian Vollmer protecting Tom Brady's blindside.

Earlier this week, Pat Kirwan put out his Top 20 Breakout Candiates list, where a certain Patriots OT was listed at #19.  Sorry to break it you Mr. Kirwan, but to put it in Sebastian Vollmer’s native German, die katze is already out of the bag.

With the 58th Pick…

Sunday, April 26th, 2009

The Patriots have selected Sebastian Vollmer, offensive lineman, from Houston. “Seabass”, as he is known, is a huge guy (6’7″/320) that can develop into a starting tackle for the Patriots a year or two down the road. Perhaps he can be the Dirk Nowitzki of the NFL, as Vollmer is a native German.
