    Absolutely. Fix this QUICK and the defense has infinitely less chance of growing jaded.

     

    They shouldn't have been in this position to begin with anyway

    it was a tough offseason, losing Wood and Incognito was a bad deal.  then we needed a QB so letting Glenn go made sense too.   It can be a quick turnaround if Beane and McD acknowledge the line and the WRs are terrible and make that the focus of the offseason.   We can't just draft 5th and 6th round guys and hope for the best.  They have to be prioritized.

    Cautiously optimistic man. What he's trying to do and will do I'm not going to bet is sure fire chance

    it all depends on whether or not they invest in the oline.   you can't have rag tags and cast offs and expect to be competitive.   It doesn't work.   We need to completely remake the Oline.   And we need at least 3 new WRs that are capable of getting it done.   The only WR i want to keep around is Zay, and the only OL I want to keep is Dawkins and even then I don't want him at LT anymore.

    I'm hoping on it man. That's all I can speak for cause I don't know what's going through their heads, but impressionable players getting paid on losing in blowouts ain't good. It's all about the coaching and intangibles these guys carried with them from college.

    That's the culture McDermott is trying to build.   Mental toughness to get through the times when we couldn't beat an egg.

    I'm usually in the left lane because I am doing 15-20 over but if the right lane is open I'll move over. There's not much that pisses me off more than someone doing the speed limit or under driving next to another car doing the same speed and blocking traffic from passing. That and people that are driving slow and you go to pass them and then it turns into a race.  

    i hate people with weak minds that will drive like you said slow, then when you pass em they speed up.    Figure out how fast you want to drive and go that speed. If I'm on I95 and i'm going 70, i'll stay in the right lane and let people get past me.   NO need to try and be a pace car or speed up when someone goes by, they're not going to beat me where I'm going.....But I think some people believe that.

    I've always thought it funny that with all the attempts to institute parity, there are still the have's and have-nots.  You give teams like Cleveland and Buffalo perennial top picks, as much salary cap space as the big market teams and they've largely wasted those resources. 

     

    No matter how much equality the league wants to establish, there will always be the teams which win consistently. And you'll always have the teams which don't.  To me, that comes down to bad management.

    Equality is not equal.  If you have bad front offices and bad general managers  it doesn't matter how many 1st round picks you have.   They will be consistently making bad decisions.   

     

    It really comes down to the QB and nothing more.  If you have one, you are a have.  If you don't have one you're a have not.  Everything else is filler.

    I really don't blame the defense if they look like they give up sometimes. It's tough as a competitor knowing you don't have control over the other side of the ball scoring at least 10 no matter how well you play.

     

    I just hope that doesn't stick to these young players as "that's just professional football, get paid and work just hard enough to get paid again.. losing doesn't hurt as much as it used to be" going forward and they can put these experiences in perspective knowing their whole career is defined by their effort in winning whenever given the opportunity. And of course, they must learn to hate the Pats. Because I want Tre White to carry that Gronk hit into pure hatred to destroy the Bradyless Pats with no mercy.. when he's age 35 still harboring hate against a terrible Pats team from an experience 13 years ago.

    I think once they see a competent offense moving the ball downfield, the urgency to get the ball back and give it to them so they can score takes over.   I don't see any carryover of negativity once we start making moves in free agency and in the draft to improve the talent on the offense.   The defense will be fine. 

  7. Olinemen, good ones are not easy to find.   That's why the Texans oline is pure garbage, so is the Jets, and it's why Dallas invested all those 1st round picks.   It's why the Patriots just tell their linemen to hold every play because "they can't call em all".  

     

    we need to invest some draft picks in the oline.  Dawkins is having a bad year at LT. He's getting over powered by bull rushers and left in the dust by speed rushers, so we're back at square 1 needing a LT.  And a C, and a pair of guards, and a RT.   Basically we need a whole new oline.   

  8. I was in Wisconsin 3 years ago on business in February, and i did not understand why every single car on the road was in the left lane on a 4 lane highway.  I got over into the right lane and just going the speed limit passed 15 cars.    I don't drive up north in winter is there some unwritten rule about driving in the right lane when there is snow on the ground???

     

    and I live in Florida in a suburb of Orlando, and i can tell you that all you northerners come down here and drive like hell when you're on vacation.   right turns from the left lane, no signal, merging at 35 MPH onto a 70mph highway.    I know Fl gets a bad wrap for having crap drivers but if i see a Michigan plate, good lord I give those morons a wide berth.

    She also plays in a co ed charity softball tournament every year. She basically runs the team. She told my fiance that one of the girls wasn't gonna make it, and wanted her to play. Fiance went out and bought a bat and a glove. She'd never played softball before, but was super excited about it. We went to the batting cages probably four times that week. She finally drives out ot the park, which is about an hour's drive away. "Oh yeah, she showed up. Never mind." 

    Not surprising.   And that's a pretty decent summary of your girls relationship with this person, it's all about her and only her.   If I were you, i would have zero contact with her and encourage your girl to come to that realization as well but not in a negative way.   anything you say to her will be twisted around to try and ruin your relationship so have zero contact with her only communicate through your wife.
