I am gonna bet he will be a non-factor! He is a product of the Belichick system. Others have flourished here, gone elsewhere for the bucks and were never to be heard from again toiling in anonymity for some pitiful excuse for a football team! Plug in another one Bill....NEXT!

Almost time to get our fish on!!!

Altho Asante made some Great plays and was a phenomenal asset, he had a habit of "doing his own thing" late in a close game. Not playing out his assignments. I'm thinking non-factor or lesser factor, too. I was glad to have him here tho..I think that htis is only the beginning of the changes in store for the Pats. Looking for a huge shake-up this season.

He that would make his own liberty secure, must guard even his enemy from oppression; for if he violates this duty, he establishes a precedent that will reach to himself.

I didn't think that the Eagles were on the Pats' schedule this year

And they are far from a pitiful excuse for a football team, Larry. "Plugging in another one" worked when Milloy and Law left, but Bill never had as many defensive needs to fill as he does now. How confident are you in Ellis Hobbs? He looked like a guy trying to hail a taxi when he got burned by Burress for the winning TD.

But hey, you re-signed Bruschi--maybe you can watch him diving at Westbrook's legs after he's through the hole if you do meet the Iggs in the Super Bowl

My point Mike is that I don't think they are a huge media market like NY, Dallas, New England, LA, Chicago. Who cares about the Eagles unless you are from Philly?

You'd be surprised...they have just as strong a following as the other teams you mentioned. Although...LA???

And Actually outside of New England The Pats are probably the most hated football franchise in the country

Hi, my name is Bryan, and I'm an I'm an Eagles fan.

Born/raised in Rhody, but grew up as a fan during Buddy ball. Fun time and it stuck.

Asante will be a great addition to a hard hitting secondary w/ Dawkins, Shepard and. Brown. Jim Johnson is a great D-Coordinator. He will know exactly how to play him, and having a true A1 cover corner will be huge for a defense that loves to blitz! Remember, they had the pats on the ropes for a while, in one of the closest game the pats had all season! Keep drinking that Kool-Aid
