Thailog80 Posted September 3, 2004 Author Share Posted September 3, 2004 America's Favorite Midget in Foxboro... again? 17115[/snapback] It would be a nice full circle twist to wind up his career wouldn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Like A Mofo Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 Just what we need to see....Brady is out 2 weeks for example, Flutie beats the Bills, and the Flutie lovers come out of the woodworks again, oh boy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foxboro Mike Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 Well, the Patsies do need a back-up QB (Davey started and STUNK last night) and it's not like AFM could lay claim to being a starter, right? RIGHT? Although AFM is a diminutive man, his delusions (like his ego) are legendary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hollywood Donahoe Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 America's Favorite Midget in Foxboro... again? 17115[/snapback] At this point, I'd prefer almost anyone as an alternative to Davey as the #2 QB. Playing against SCRUBS, Davey has been brutal. As it stands now, if Brady goes down, we're screwed. So much for Weis' great "system", huh CH? Bledsoe played like crap in it, Davey plays like crap in it...hell, the only person who's played well in Weis' New England system is Brady!

jad1 Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 "America's Favorite Midget," copyright Jim McMahon, 1988. 17159[/snapback] What the general feeling about Flutie in NE? Is he still an icon there? Does he still garner irrational support? If the they sign Flutie, and Brady has a game like he did in the opener in Buffalo, would there be a faction in the area calling for Flutie to get some snaps?

Flutie is a snot, but he's a crafty snot. Davey is pretty much baffled. But I wouldn't cut him. BTW, Watson is beginning to remind me a bit of former Jet TE Richard Caster.

The pro-Flutie crusade was more powerful than the anti-Drew one ever was. All's it takes is 10-20 delusional Flutie flakes to drop you into the bizarro world. You guys better hope that Belichick saw something that he liked in Davey's performance this pre-season, and avoids this thing like the plague. It would suck for you guys if you had to defend your two time SB MVP QB from some CFL fanatic nutjob, who thinks that it's only fair that Flutie gets the opportunity to lead a team to the SB. We would enjoy it though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffOrange Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 Bellicek is going to sign the midget after he already showed the rest of the league how to shut him down beginning in 1998? I don't buy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't buy it. 17232[/snapback] Well, opening day is a week away. Davey is not ready, it seems. They cut Jim Miller recently (still injured? - dunno). NE is going to need someone soon to back up Brady. I'm waiting for someone to start a "trade Shane Matthews for Ty Law thread"... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They did the same thing with Larry Centers last year, so that's my thinking there. The Pats should also be in the market for a backup RB (maybe Antowain II if TEN cuts him?).

If the B'gal's cut him (very doubtful), Kenny Watson could be a nice back-up. http://www.nfl.com/players/playerpage/235389 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
