  1. very clear that Clappy and Beane value character
  2. all in for me means the Herschel Walker trade plus the Deandre Hopkins deal and Ditka drafting Ricky Williams
  3. they sound confident with TT leading the team. BTW you can get two tickets with a cheeseburger combo at In n Out burger.
  4. never seen Gordon make any noteworthy plays. I'll pass
  5. they chose Foles because his ego won't get out of joint when they put Trubisky back in once they're eliminated by week 4
  6. good special teamer and part time RB
  7. let's hope TT makes the most of his opportunity. They might get more fan support on the road than LA
  8. maybe we can keep our pants on and try and win the AFCE before throwing ourselves a ticker tape parade
  9. only if there are some unsigned Panthers left
  10. I disagree entirely. Hopkins has been a stellar performer ever since joining the league. Many teams will try and poison relations with a player they know they can't sign so as to frame it as the player being the problem in an effort to appease fans. Bill O'Brien is not only incompetent, he's a complete Ahole with a side order of racist.
  11. Hopkins needs to take this up with the NFLPA.This is flat out wrong
  12. Do ya think I’m Sarsy (Sexy) Nurse sits alone waiting for the patients He’s so nervous keeping social distance His mouth is dry but he’s sweating like a sprinkler Her she comes now with the thermometer If you want to test me and you think I’m Sarsy Come on sugar let me know If you want to needle me just reach out and stick me come on baby poke the hole He’s acting scared waiting for an answer Thinking about 2 months in isolation Now hold on a minute, don’t go off the deep end Here’s a nice voucher for 60 rolls of 3 ply If you want to screen me and you think I’m Sarsy I promise not to blow my nose If you must quarantine me Sign my unemployment come on baby write the note My Corona ♫ Ooh my little viral load, viral load. I made it in a lab it's My Corona! I added some HIV, HIV Start it spreading in Wuhan it's My Corona! Never gonna stop, give it up. Such a dirty mind. Spreading by the touch To the older kind. My my my I yi woo. M M M My Corona...♫

  13. He should be fined or suspended. His comment has racist overtones
  14. I like that Beane is adapting his personnel strategy for the fact that we are drafting low. I am thrilled about Diggs but am still expecting more firepower including a tall red zone target and a smashmouth RB. I don't have much confidence in our incumbent TEs
  15. I hate the Patriots as much as anyone but I am a football fan too. I have watched the Patriots send high performing veterans like Richard Seymour, Vince Wilfork, Chandler Jones, Randy Moss, Nate Solder and Wes Welker away for salary cap reasons and not miss a beat. To date, the only player that they have not successfully replaced was Gronkowski and it showed last year. The year Brady was injured they plugged in Matt Cassel and went 11 - 5. I have watched all of the Patriots Superbowls. As well as Brady has played in them I never came away with the feeling that it was all him or that he was Uber talented in the ways that John Elway or Dan Marino were. He did show incredible poise and presence of mind under pressure. I also found that he finished most of those games untouched and under little or no pressure. I think there is a lot of wishful thinking in this thread that is rather dismissive of the Pats dominance as being all Brady and none of BB. There is also the hint of the allegation of player abuse. Player abuse is a serious matter that is ending careers in other sports, most notably hockey. This generation of players is blowing the whistle on that and rightfully so. Still if players were being subjected to degrading conduct I think we'd have heard something to that effect as we did with the Richie Incognito affair. Belichick has revolutionized the game in his defiance of salary cap economics by creating a culture of team and head coach first, attracting veterans who want to win on one year rental contracts, getting compensatory draft picks for losing veterans to other teams, but most importantly he has developed such great coaching systems that players from other clubs can just walk in and assume roles seemingly instantly with little or no lead time. Somewhere BB has simplified things to the point where that is possible in NE but seemingly no where else. I am sure that he looks for certain coachability and high football IQ in his players to facilitate this. I think he is a world class teacher and leader who knows things about football, human nature and intelligence that others do not. Twenty years into the Patriot era and not one coach from his coaching tree has had any notable success. I can't think of any of his better former players having had success elsewhere that approached what they experienced with NE. I am as sick of these smug bastards as anyone but something special remarkable has gone on here and I think most of it is BB. Yes, I'm sure they cut ethical corners in the area of industrial espionage but maybe they just want it a little more than the mom and pop franchises that describe most of the league.
  16. it's official now as per CBS
  17. if this pandemic keeps up i may lose the other one to inactivity
  18. will she kiss my blarney stone?
  19. praise him
  20. my money's on Brissett with Fromm in the draft
  21. he'd have had a better chance to win in TB. Bolts roster sucks
