What a Tuel

Yeah, I was a Gore naysayer for the first 4 games, but he is showing he still has it. This recent one against Jacksonville that I got to watch Sun morning, pushed me over to his side. He still runs with a bit of power. You make good points about Benjamin and Cam Newton. That might be a good idea if Cam is out. Marshall didn't get the extra targets last week, but maybe he could this week. I'm not sure. It is certainly tough to sit him. I think of division games as wildcards. Nothing ever makes sense in those games. Cam Newton should've torn up a poor Falcons defense, and Matt Ryan should have struggled or done average against the Panthers D. I think a non-division game against a tough defense will make him come back to earth. With that said, I am stuck playing him because Bortles is on bye, so I am hoping for the best. Just my 2 cents though. I am about 9-7 in all of my leagues combined, so what do I know.

David Johnson Frank Gore Kelvin Benjamin LeSean McCoy Marvin Jones You have an excellent team. All of those players perform consistently each week except Marshall. I'd play those 5 over him until he proves he will score 10+ each week. Then again, if Pittsburgh runs up the score, you may get a lot of garbage time. Who knows. Joe Flacco. Statistically speaking, Matt Ryan has to come down from his high, and it is only logical for it to be against a dominating denver d. I wouldn't bother blocking him but if you really want to then drop Smallwood. Mathews is supposed to play Sunday.

What trump policies do you like? And try not to speculate outside of what he has outlined himself.

Can't believe they are even fighting this. http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-game-highlights/0ap3000000713893/Patriots-90-yard-first-play-called-back

Oh, I had to scroll. The link just takes you to the first article discussing starting Hoyer or Cutler, one you scroll past that you see the trade speculation. Thanks! Edit: This is the blog that just keeps giving. Drunk fans throwing a helmet at Jerry Jones to autograph and presumably accidentally hitting him in the head.

where does Miami come into this? I must be missing something.

You guys had a similar one in "this loss is going to help us" on your forum. http://www.patsfans.com/new-england-patriots/messageboard/threads/we-needed-this-loss.1133916/ Shouted down the same way as ours haha.

Trying to find the clip but google is failing me, and the NFL doesn't usually release injury videos by themselves. I think it was against the Houston Texans in December

I'm not upset at all. I'm laughing at your fans calling our guys thugs because your players were breaking the NFL rules (again), and yet again your fans blame everyone else for not accommodating said rule breaking.

I'm not criticizing Gilmore's play at all outside of this tackle attempt. He needed to wrap the guys legs up to trip him up or something. He definitely whiffed on the tackle though. Edit: If you slow it down to .25 speed on youtube, it looks much worse too. Not a huge deal. We still won, and hopefully he will be coached up on what to do in that scenario.

Not sure what you mean?

GO BILLS!

Ok yeah, that was a bit of an ole' haha.

Yep Patriots fans, that is an excellent excuse, and it has worked for you before. "We broke the rules because it is what we always do, what is the problem? Tom Brady always does it." Its priceless. http://www.patsfans.com/new-england-patriots/messageboard/threads/league-reviewing-%E2%80%9Call-aspects%E2%80%9D-of-pregame-scuffle-in-foxboro.1133917/

I wouldn't call what you or the NNN's have done is ever "waiting and seeing". Consistent fire this guy, fire that guy, we will be 2-14 predictions, tank, etc On the other hand, there is optimism in beating a divisional opponent in their house. Our players played very well, and if they keep it up, we will be competitive. I don't think anyone has made quite the same claims as above though. (ex we will be 14-2, superbowl or even playoffs). Admittedly, most agree the wildcards are going to be very difficult to secure this year. This thread is as close to it gets in praising Whaley.

any video on this yet? Someones gotta have the NFL pass to make a clip?

True, you are cocky into the 4th, and we are always looking over our shoulder when Brady is in. He has stolen too many wins from us. That 2009 Monday Night game still pains me. Up 24 to 13 with 6 minutes left. Brady drives down and scores 2 tds to win it. Of course I am bias but I look at our circling the wagons as a never give up til the end thing, whereas I find Affleck's reaction to it as "meh, we will win"

It certainly is. And Ted Cruz's unfounded, and baseless reaction to this for some type of political points against Obama or something makes me question everything else he is "for". He plays far more political games than average politicians including extrapolating unfounded points about NASA funding that I posted earlier. I know this will be unpopular, and I am no democrat, but Ted Cruz is a less obvious version of Trump, in that they have no substance behind them. The statements and issues that they bring to the table are simply there to trigger people into voting for them. They are not based in facts or even reality, a good portion of the time.

There's a thread for it, but it is funny! It must be nice to be all nonchalant about losing when you are a Patriots fan. "in the third?" (eh we will come back, we always do) "in the fourth?" (wtf)

mmmm brisket.

Not touchy, we just don't care that you were missing Brady, which you mentioned several times in 3 pages. It isn't a valid excuse. You were also critiquing our 16 points, well missing our best offensive player may have had something to do with that. But I'll go with we had the game in hand. Although we got a ton of pressure on Brissett, missing Dareus may have interrupted the timing of those "wide open" throws that he missed. My post had everything to do with your posts throughout the thread, and not that I am being "touchy". We both fielded the teams on the field that we could, and ours beat yours. Our excuses are only responses to your excuses.

Rob Ryan probably had something to do with this.

Wide open receivers? Let's talk about the potential best player on our team going to IR. Or that the best player on our defense being suspended just like Brady. We don't care that you had to deal with a rookie QB. We deal with that constantly, and we get no slack when you dominate.

Won't someone think of the lost keystrokes from these prepared statements? I mean come on One Bills Drive, they had their complaints typed out and prepared for release! I guess someone forgot to put it on the Patriots bulletin board.

I certainly do. It will be interesting to see Myles Jack in action though. That said, poor Jaguars. Not only are they stuck on the "London every year" circuit, but they have to play their home division game against the Colts there. I'd be pissed if they did that to us for the Patriots.
