The message was basically the same: Be sure to check out the New England Patriots, they're the front runners with Tom Brady back. And stay clear of Denver! Still, Holliday couldn't cross the Broncos off his list, even if they had a defense in disarray and a new coach who began his tenure by quarreling with his Pro Bowl quarterback a |

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) -Junior Seau already was lifting weights when Tom Brady showed up at 6:45 a.m. A few hours later, Seau walked into the locker room and high-fived Randy Moss. On his first full day back with the New England Patriots on Wednesday, the 40-year-old linebacker with a love of surfing and a loyalty to coach Bill Belichick showed what he can bring: hard work and a passionate style. The vocal leader and 12-time Pro Bowl player knows that this is just another beginning - the third time he's come |

He is best known for making two winning kicks in the Super Bowl as well as the tying kick and winner in the ``Snow Bowl,'' a playoff game that helped the New England Patriots win their first Super Bowl title. Clearly, the Colts expect him back this season because Vinatieri was not placed on injured reserve. In the meantime, they'll rely on Stover, who started his career in 1991 with the Cleveland Browns, then went to |

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) -The length of opponents' touchdown drives doesn't make a difference to New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick. He doesn't want his defense to allow any scores. The Patriots gave up touchdown marches of 90 and 98 yards in Sunday's 20-17 overtime loss to the Broncos in Denver. The Patriots also let the Broncos move 58 yards on 11 plays to set up the winning field goal on the only possession of overtime. The return of linebacker Jerod Mayo couldn't stop Denver on those drives. Last ye |
