Belichick says the Patriots will learn from "this terrible experience," and that it's time for New England to "move forward."
Fortunately for Jets head coach Rex Ryan, his future at the helm of the team is not necessary tied to whether or not the Jets make the playoffs in 2013.
Pending a physical, wide receiver Braylon Edwards will be suiting back up for the Jets in time for training camp, sources told the New York Daily News.
A year ago, the New York Giants failed miserably in their bid to get back to the Super Bowl and defend their title. This year, the Giants just want to stay home — and become the first NFL team to play the Super Bowl in their backyard.
Thanks to an influx of inked-up stars, tattoos are becoming commonplace in the NFL. But teams may want to take a closer look at what exactly is branded on their prospects' bodies.
The NFL and players union are talking again about starting to test for human growth hormone as early as the upcoming season.
The New York Jets have signed quarterback Geno Smith, their second-round draft pick, to a four-year contract that is worth about $5 million.
Smith told the Charleston (W. Va.) Gazette that he's "prepared" and "getting better daily" as training camp nears at SUNY Cortland, where the rookie will be competing with incumbent starter Mark Sanchez.

The entire apparatus is so swathed in entitlement that you, the fan, the customer, client, and de facto employer have become lost in the tornadic narcissism. You're just too dumb. You didn't play the game.
Smith seems concerned only with taking Sanchez's job. That will shake out in training camp, certainly. But even if he wins that competition, he must also worry about taking the locker room along with him.
"I look at Tebow, and he gets bashed because of his faith," Strawberry said. "Let 'em laugh. Let 'em talk. He's a greater man than anyone who might be greater than him as an athlete."
