  1. 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.
  2. Hopkins needs to take this up with the NFLPA.This is flat out wrong

  4. He should be fined or suspended. His comment has racist overtones
  5. 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
  6. 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.
  7. it's official now as per CBS
  8. if this pandemic keeps up i may lose the other one to inactivity
  9. will she kiss my blarney stone?
  10. praise him
  11. my money's on Brissett with Fromm in the draft
  12. he'd have had a better chance to win in TB. Bolts roster sucks
  13. good run stuffer and process guy who has this thing called playoff experience
  14. maybe we should swap out "Shout" for "Hey we want some *****!"
  15. signings like these are vital now that we are no longer basement dwellers. While we are not one player away I think this signals that we are in win now mode.
  16. I think Diggs is a fiery competitor who knows he is a difference maker. He wants the ball at crunch time. Like all great WRs, there is no small amount of diva in him but he backs it up with his play. He will make Allen's career. He's the sizzle and the steak at a meat loaf price. This is the best time to be a Bills fan since the glory days
  17. he's working on that big colouring book in the sky
  18. After 6 Superbowls, you wonder what is left to play for. This will be fascinating to watch. I get that BB and Kraft want NE to have the most hardware in league history and that one more puts them over the Steelers. As for Brady, he obviously wants to win outside of the Pats umbrella to prove that he wasn't just a cog in a wheel. Still you wonder if he can go into a strange locker room and bring success. I've never thought of Brady as special athletically but I do think he has the qualities of a great leader. What coach will have the nerve to coach him? The tell for me is that no one who has left the Patriots (coach or player) has really succeeded. Maybe Vrabel as coach but the jury is still out. Still, comparing the departures of Vince Woolfork, Richard Seymour, Nate Solder and Chandler Jones to Tom Brady is apples and oranges. I have always felt that the Patriots success was more about BB than TB. I will enjoy watching it unfold.
  19. I'll still give Jacksonville the #1 dumpster fire ranking but this is the closest thing i've seen to the Herschel Walker trade in my lifetime
  20. Love the acquisition. We're paying full pop but getting a proven player in his prime.I think he'll be our best WR since Andre Reed
