  1. I appreciate that he takes care of the ball, but a conservative offense isn't going to advance us to the Superbowl. I kind of wish we could keep him for cheap while bringing in a young guy or two to see if they have "it", but he'll probably demand more money than we want to give someone like that. Thanks for not turning the ball over much, Tyrod. Also, thank you for being a class act even if us fans were !@#$s to you. 

  2. Same as the one month and six month polls.

     

    Do you approve or disapprove Trump's job performance so far?

     

    Feel free to expand on your answer in a post. For example, is how your feeling about him now different or the same as before the election? Are you happy with certain parts, and down on other parts of his performance? Etc.

     

    One Month: 45% Approve/55% Disapprove

    Six Months: 32% Approve/68% Disapprove

    Despite what people think, you still need to build a team behind a QB to be successful, you don't simply shuffle your fingers until you get an Aaron Rodgers then just put your feet up and watch the Superbowls come rolling in every year.

    This. There are maybe 2 or 3 QBs in the league that can carry a mediocre team to the playoffs. The rest need to have a decent team around them to get anywhere. This idea that you can just draft a stud QB and be set for life is so stupid.

    So I guess there's no need to ever complain about anything.  Just accept it because the person who benefits is just better than you. 

    In the case of a football *game*, and the Bills/Pats, yeah I think accepting it is the way to go. The Pats get calls. Just like Lebron James "never" fouls anyone.

    This is a gross oversimplification. When you say "Good teams get calls", it's really only one team coming up over and over again - for the wrong reasons.

    This isn't about the call. It's about the reversal of a call without enough evidence. It happened to Pittsburgh and I think they meet the definition of a "good" team. When the"tuck rule" was enforced against the Raiders they were a "good" team. Again, this is about suits in NY giving the pats too many gift calls.

    Oversimplification or not, the Patriots are a good team, are a very popular team (because they're good and live in a big market) so it benefits the NFL to give them favorable calls. Whining about it every time we play them does no one any good. You'd think Bills fans would get it by now.

    So whenever people encounter injustice in the real world they should just shrug and say, “that’s the way it is.”?

     

    That sounds like a great philosophy that would definitely serve mankind well through the ages.

    If you consider the Patriots getting favorable calls to be an injustice in the real world, then you haven't lived in the real world. There are people dying and living without basic rights out there, those are injustices. The Patriots getting favorable calls is a predictable annoyance due to capitalism.
