Many of you recall the great catch Donte' Stallworth made against the Jaguars last weekend--the one where he was caught from behind because he looked up at the Jumbotron.  Well Stallworth has a bizarre explanation for what happened, citing an alter ego of his that was involved in the play.

There's also a great story about Dick Rehbein, the late Patriots Quarterbacks Coach who was instrumental in persuading the Patriots brain trust to draft Tom Brady after predicting Brady's greatness earlier than anyone else.

ESPN.com's Len Pasquarelli writes on the astounding talent and depth of the Patriots WR group.

Speaking of that depth, Christopher L. Gasper with the Globe writes on Donte' Stallworth's transition to a supporting role.

Gasper also has a notes column up today, pointing out that the Chargers defense led the league in turnovers forced this season, and already have five in the playoffs.  The Patriots offense on the other hand, takes care of the ball very well, and they will have to if they are to win.  The Herald's Karen Guregian has a similar article, and also breaks down turnover statistics by team and player.

Mike Reiss has a mailbag column up focusing on this weekend's game against the Chargers.  He also has several game-related updates to his blog.

With the Herald, John Tomase writes that Rodney Harrison faces a tough task in covering Antonio Gates.  However, Tomase also points out that during this season, Harrison has done a good job of blanketing tight ends.

Tomase also suggests four candidates to replace Chad Jackson as kick returner, in the hope that they would be able to give the Pats better field position than him.

Guregian also has a notes column looking at Tom Brady's leadership, the difference playing a Chargers team with Chris Chambers makes, and the bad blood that is starting to build between the Chargers and Pats.

Guregian also reports that though much of the public believe the Patriots are going to waltz into the Super Bowl, Belichick and Patriots believe they were the best team in the AFC during the second half of the season, and that the game will be no cakewalk.
