I reject all of these arguments! The only way to make this team better is for me to burn all my gear, throw beer cans at my TV, and have everyone over the rank of ballboy lined up and shot. If the team doesn't win the SB, then the whole organization needs to be blown up. In between committing organizational suicide every year, we must also worship NE and possibly Miami. I demand wild overreactions to provide some kind of instant gratification! Rabble!

Whoever is the RBs coach can go too. Our RBs run the ball into our linemen so much it's got to be coached into them to dive back inside. Either that or they can't read their blocks.

I've made my peace with this year being whatever it turns out to be. It's up to McBeane to make choices that determine whether this is the end of something or the start of something. The faults in this team are obvious. We got so wrapped up in this new era of football that we can't run the ball, and we can't stop the run. On its own, that's just a cliche. But we're soooooo bad at it that teams can drop 7 or 8 into coverage AND get home with 3 or 4 rushers AND defend the run at the same time. And that's how you waste all this skill position talent and Josh's rookie deal years. At minimum, the OL personnel and coaching need an overhaul, and Daboll needs to go out behind the woodshed.

These threads are insane.

Wouldn't be surprised if the answer is nobody. With this wind, the balls gonna go where it goes. Don't risk a fumble.

As long as Cody Ford never sees the field. I don't care who they put in his place, or what they have to do to keep him on the bench.

Thought I'd check and see if anything had changed narrative-wise. Nope, the national media still thinks we're supposed to play the Washington Generals for Mac Jones.

Poor Trent. If anybody needed a safety blanket for a TE, it was him. Instead he had the hybrid TE/FB stylings of Derek Fine and Derek Schouman.

Ahhh, thanks, my ignore list was missing Gene. Attention to detail strikes again.

I was at that game, and my god it was bad. I went with two pats fans from college (good guys!) and we had seats in the Mark Kuelsow club. I was drunk and chanting "You don't know what you're doing" to Skeletor like a British soccer fan. And that team roster...Derek Fine? Xavier Omon? Holy hell. What a mess. That was a Drought team if there ever was one.

Hopefully the team spent as much time on this game plan as I did adding people to my ignore list this week.

It's like we suddenly took a time machine back to 2007.

Well it's a list of pro bowlers, rookies of the year, guys with playoff wins and Superbowls, MVPs...and Mac Jones is on it too for some reason.

Well, at least we know Filthy isn't a hot girl, otherwise they wouldn't have to work this hard for attention.

Why? It's a fact isn't it? And it's not like anyone is going to let them forget that Mac Jones may as buy his Gold Jacket now.

This. And I've said it a million times, but they've got to figure how they want to run the ball most of the time. You don't have to be all zone or all power or all pass protection, but you've got to have some kind of identity.

The media messaging here is a PR clinic. If the Pats win, the evil empire is back. If they lose, bust out your fraud narratives for the NFLs most hated team. It's a win-win for the talking heads and click chasers.

Humility isn't exactly a trademark of the BB Patriots.

No love for Pat Boone?

So Bill Vinovich runs the "3.6 Roentgen" crew? Moscow always sends us the crap equipment.

You'd think the NFL would have learned it's lesson after tough guy coaches helped ruin Chad Pennington and RG3.

This post didn't age well.

The NE Doomposting around here is ***** unbearable.

Only thing keeping from going is the heat. Winter is off-season right?

Poor Tre. I hope it's not as bad as it looks. Great win otherwise.
