ONLINE ONLY: Pats welcome Harrison's return this week

BY JIM DONALDSON

CINCINNATI -- Rodney Harrison returns this week after serving a four-game suspension for using Human Growth Hormone and the Patriots will be happy to see him.

''That's going to be big,'' linebacker Rosevelt Colvin said last night. ''Everybody's missed him.''

Despite the absence of hard-hitting, veteran safety Harrison, as well as five-time Pro Bowl defensive lineman Richard Seymour -- who's on the Physically Unable To Perform List at least through Week Six -- the New England defense hasn't missed a beat.

The Patriots haven't given up more than 14 points in any of their first four games and are yielding an average of just 12 points per game.

I FEEL BAD FOR THE FIRST PERSON TO GET HIT BY HIM NEXT WEEK.

Great news for the Patriots, their fans and Rodney. WELCOME BACK, COME JOIN THE PARTY AND LET'S KEEP IT GOING! I'm sure that Rodney can not wait to get out there and hit somebody.

I feel sorry for any defensive back trying to cover Randy Moss. It looks like it's just about impossible to defend him. It looked impossible for the Bengals to defend Sammy Morris too, or to simply tackle him for that matter. Patriots have weapons of mass destruction all over the place.
