SportsFilter: The Monday Huddle:
A place to discuss the sports stories that aren't making news, share links that aren't quite front-page material, and diagram plays on your hand. Remember to count to five Mississippi before commenting in anger.
Hanging out in the lobby of Rex Ryan's hotel, waiting to ask him if he thinks the Patriots were sandbagging in 2018.

Read this description of the Chargers' game plan vs NE:
"load up on defensive backs, sit back in an insanely soft zone and let Brady pick you apart as if he's playing on a football-toss machine at Dave & Buster's."
Add to that Rivers audible-ing out of every pass play to throw beyond 20 yards and completely ignore the gaping hole the Patriots were intentionally leaving in the middle.
Game was won as much between the ears as it was on the field.

So, how 'bout those ballpuck games this weekend? Our local team sure is on fire/sucking lately. And those refempires sure are incompetent, aren't they? A bunch of clowns I say!
