The New England Patriots have received a double dose of good news on the injury front, starting with quarterback Tom Brady the Boston Herald reported.

Hobbled in the Super Bowl by a high ankle sprain, Brady checked out fine recently and hasn't had any troubles with the bothersome right ankle, according to a league source. He won't be restricted for the offseason workout program or minicamps.

There was more good news regarding starting right guard Stephen Neal, who recently underwent surgery, but it wasn't on the knee he injured at the end of the Super Bowl. It was instead on his shoulder, which has given him trouble each of the last two offseasons. The surgery went off without a hitch, the source said, and Neal should be ready for the start of training camp. There was no indication that his knee needed to go under the knife.

    Now he can really give it to Gisele without worrying about re-injuring it.... Good news all around. She will keep him from ever winning another Super Bowl. GO BROWNS!

    It's not too soon to think about picking up a talented young O lineman, say, at left tackle, and bring him along until the time is right....

    They had the best offseason just by re-aquiring Moss... I hate them, but they really are gonna be fine next year when they draft Mclevin to replace Samuel, and put Chad Jackson in instead of Stallworth.
    They are actually better off then they were last year
    I am an Eagles fan, but I hope that the cowboys get Pac Man just so they can beat the Patriots when the time comes, if it does. I hate the patriots more than any other team in the league

    I thought it was his butt that got hurt. Didn't the Giants' D line put their (collective) foot in it?

    yes the Dolphins undefeated season where they beat teams with a combined sub .500 record. yup, Mercury Morris can bask in the glory of his overhyped mediocrity until the end of his days...by the way, Patriots R Cheaters do you have a life?? any Patriots related news you are writing commentary even though you are not a Pats fan...is your life so pitiful that it can honestly be consumed by a dislike of the Patriots team?? well that makes sense for you actually.

    keith#11 The Pats got the Cowboys this year in the newly named Dallas State Penitentiary Alumni at Landry Field. That one is just penciled in for the moment.( victory) If Pac-Man goes to Dallas, then we can change the pencil to an uneraseable magic marker.
    #7 - looking forward to the Steelers at Gillette in Dec.---- always a good one!
    #2 - Go Browns - Yeah - I'm rootin for Romeo -oh- Romeo
    Rffl - that was 4 yrs ago! I've shed several layers of epidermus since then!

    Now would be a good time to buy Matt Light a little talent,that or draft somebody to replace him...or they could put an extra tackle on his side to help out,or maybe tape his hands closed in a fist so he can't hold
    that should stop 50% of the holding calls,maybe all the back peddling he does is for a reason...he might be practicing to be a D back...or maybe matts practicing for the movie longest yard but he forgot to tell brady he was suppose to throw the ball and hit the guy in the nuts...who knows what this guy is doing,just let him do it some place else
