The Patriots announced Monday they have cut linebacker Jeff Tarpinian. Tarpinian, 25, made New England’s 53-man roster last season after joining the team as a rookie free agent out of Iowa. The 6-foot-3, 240-pounder played in seven games with one start in 2011 and finished with four defensive tackles and eight special teams tackles. He was placed on injured reserve with a head injury on Nov. 24, 2011. Tarpinian was released by the Patriots on Aug. 31 and signed to the practice squad on Sept. 1. He was signed to the 53-man roster from the practice squad on Oct. 20 and played in the last three games, mainly on special teams.

    Go get any Colts player who may be available. They cut no less than 7 players with more talent than most of the Patriots starting roster. They are loaded !  The truth is out there if you seek it: The Pats will be hard pressed to even hang with Colts for 1 quarter this Sunday. Indy has too much talent at every position when compared to the Pats. Just go down the roster and try to find one area where the Pats are better. Lets hope for the ‘Miracle At Gillette’ on Sunday!
