THE BELICHICK INTERNATIONAL SPY AGENCY

Who is Anthony Smith? Two weeks ago everyone on the planet would have said that they do not know of anyone by that name, but Anthony Smith of the Steelers decided to guarantee a victory over the undefeated Patriots. Of course, the Patriots walked away with a 34-13 victory where they burned Smith on three occasions for the touchdowns. Smith was also seen headbutting Tom Brady after Mr. Gisele Bundchen threw a first quarter touchdown.

The media entered the Pittsburgh locker room to get some quotes from Anthony Smith. Guess what? He states that the Steelers will see the Patriots again in the playoffs. Smith needs to focus on making plays on the field which will lead the team to victory instead of running his mouth. What would Bill Cowher have done to him if he pulled the same stunt on him? Rip his head off? Head coach Mike Tomlin needs to get his team back on the winning track and focusing on the next game instead of having to deal with a media firestorm after one of his weakest defensive players runs his stupid mouth.

Bill Belichick who usually says nothing in his press conferences that gets people riled up at all made some comments about Smith. When asked about many of the plays which took advantage of Anthony Smith, he stated that, "The safety play at that position was pretty inviting." Rodney Harrison and Randy Moss called out Smith saying that the team used the comments as motivation heading into the game.

The Pats have some motivation this weekend as they take on Eric Mangenius and the New York Jets. The Jets turned in the New England Patriots this season after getting a videotape confiscated from the Pats sideline during the first quarter of their week one match-up. As everyone knows, it was found out that the Patriots were filming the defensive coaches of the Jets so they could look at the signals thus knowing what the Jets were calling during the game. The Patriots were found guilty of the charges and lost their 1st round pick.

As we enter this Week 15 match-up the teams are heading in very different directions with the Patriots having a solid (ok, outstanding) 13-0 record while the Jets are only 3-10 with two of the wins coming against the hapless Dolphins. The Patriots started the week off as 27 point favorites as it is expected that Belichick will run up the score on the Jets for costing them a first round pick. According to some national reports, Mangenius was trying to steal Patriots assistant coaches on the way back from a playoff game which irked Belichick. The two coaches had a great relationship until Mangenius starting to try to cause problems with the Patriots staff. The Pats also filed tampering charges after the Jets were talking to a Patriots wide receiver who was not in camp about moving over to the Jets camp.

We will see what will happen this weekend and how many points Patriots will put up on the Jets, but I would say that the score will be closer then the 27 point spread as a blizzard is expected in the New England area starting on Sunday.

AS I WAS TYPING THIS POST UP, I HEARD ESPN REPORTING THAT THE JETS WERE CAUGHT VIDEOTAPING LAST SEASON AT GILETTE STADIUM. TAKE AWAY THE NUMBER 1 PICK OF THE JETS!
