Can’t blame the Pats for going for it — AB is too good, and the NFL has too many big egos that, to think he wouldn’t get another chance. I hate the Patriots as much as anyone, but I don’t think there’s much risk here (aside from him not having reps/familiarity with the offense). Teams spend guaranteed money on draft picks that don’t pan out every year, so seems like a reasonable chance to take.
I do wish this was not happening the week the Steelers play the Pats. Steelers have been remarkably drama free this preseason. Now, it’s going to be all we hear about for the next few days surrounding the game.
