Patriots are probably trying to tank for Trevor Lawrence. I think the Chargers might sign him at this point.

I just can't see BB tanking for a season, especially with all the 'time to prove himself without Tom' talk. Knowing the Pats they'll draft Jordan Love late in the first and he'll end up being the next Elway

He brought joy to a fanchise that inflicts pain on itself without learning from it. I will always wish we were a better run franchise so that we could have won more. The dude straight carried our offense for years. Back to the dark days where all we can do is hope for another QB that can make us that competitive.

The team screwed this up way more than the Steve Smith thing

Not when they know he's going to be released. Get that Pats jersey ready.

That would suck if he went to the Pats because I’d have to root for him to lose, but it would be hilarious to see all these loser Pats fans react to it. Some of the hot takes from people in my office, local gym, etc. regarding Cam in the Panthers are worse than the comments on ESPN and yahoo articles about Cam.

That's why I don't want to see it. I have had some of the most racist and fuged up comments directed towards me when I was around Pats fans and wearing a Cam jersey. They don't deserve anything good as a fanbase.

Ian Rapoport, Tom Pelissero and Mike Garafolo have all confirmed the story.

Honestly, the reports make it sound like they never had any intention of keeping him.

Unbelievable that we couldn't get anything for him. Poor job by Marty and the front office 

Not much than can happen when he can’t travel to take a physical.  Same thing with Gurley - teams want to check him out thoroughly and cannot right now.

I've had that impression ever since Tepper took over the team.  I always got the impression he never bought into Newton staying healthy and was not going to commit to him beyond his current contract.

They have their flaws but other teams not showing interest for the past 3 months has nothing to do with them.

Please learn to validate your bitching so people can take you seriously.

In the end he wasn't even worth a 7th rounder, wow

Same.

Just doesn't seem like he's Tepper's guy.
