2018 Patriots Season Thread

Big blow talent wise for the Chiefs. They got a lot weaker. Chiefs looked like the team of destiny in the AFC before this happened. Could be a game changer for the conference. I'd be ticked at this scumbag if I was a Chief's fan today.

Patriots look all of a sudden better this year by default now because the league is filled with garbage who can't keep their act together.

The other part of this has me all twisted up. I’m only going to talk from the Chiefs side because F the NFL. They take a players word for something like this and stop the investigation, but they go full on FBI vs the MOB on Tom Brady because of some air pressure.... the Chiefs on the other hand...


Part of me says, they should have found that video themselves and/or done a much better job of investigating the incident to figure out what really happened. I’m not one of these people that gets into “who do you believe?” type discussions. Sorry, but I need real evidence before I’m punishing someone for sexual assault or domestic violence, even if I believe the accuser. I blame the Chiefs for not getting the evidence either because they are inept or intentionally ignorant. Both are bad; I don’t need to speculate as to where they fall. But until they had that or any evidence, they should not have disciplined Hunt.


The other part of this is that some are saying this woman was a racist who dropped racial slurs and attacked him first which is why he was set off. That may or may not be true, but even if it were two things can be true at once. She can be a racist POS and he can be a POS man who can’t control his emotions and beats on a woman. Can you imagine what he would have done to her without all those people holding him back? That was way more than an adrenaline rush rage reaction.

There is absolutely no scenario whatsoever that would assuage what he did. She could have used every single racial slur known to man and it would still be intensely wrong to beat the living sh*t out of her. Good move for the Chiefs for being decisive about this, Kareem Hunt is an asshole and he belongs in jail, not in a NFL roster. I wish the Cowboys had the guts to do the same thing.

Ray Rice knocked out his girlfriend. Literally clean clocked. They were both horrible, but Ray Rice deserved years in jail for that.

I don't know man, Rice's girl was attacking him. Coming at him slapping and hitting him from what I remember. Yea what he did was crazy bad, but it was just more of a reaction type thing. One punch, Hunt litterally attacked a women, then kicked her after attacking her while see was on the ground. All because what she mouthed off? 

Both are very bad, but for me Hunts is waaaaay worse. He wasn't defending himself, he just went off and destroyed a women over words. How the police didn't press charges is beyond me.

Yeah at most you shove her away from yourself. You don't use her as one of those punching machines where you put all your force into one punch and knock that person out.

He literally dragged her afterwards instead for calling for help too. Just cold blooded stuff right there.

I'm with you on this line of thinking. Dont they already have a player on their team who assaulted some lady? Sure, they deserve SOME credit, but even their own statement says they released him because he lied, and not because he assaulted this woman.

You can’t say enough bad things about Josh McDaniels.

You can trust that they’ll be way less likely to cut great players for despicable behavior. Only the Chiefs did the right thing at the right time.

There have been 3-4 horrendous officiating calls made thus far, as if each one were a makeup call for the one before it. Both teams should be upset.

I loved the Minny WR complaining about the challenge. It's like come on Bill your killing us let us have this!

Gronk is a shell; once teams wake up and stop doubling him things will get tougher
