NoSaint Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 Because the Pats have a reputation for making moves like this get them to the top. We don't. A team of thugs? I probably missed this one, but how is Harvin a thug? I'll agree about Incognito - he always was an A-hole. So that's one player, where is the team full of thugs? I mean, had in was banned from hs sports for initiating large fights (plural), allegedly physically fought coaches, etc..... Whether thugs the word I suppose is debatable but it seems self centered hot head would be the kindest interpretation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tenhigh Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 oh gosh really? i had no idea of the record. Thanks for that fact. And that was not the point. I enjoy any games we win and even some we lose, I dont need playoffs nor superbowls to be a fan, but i do need a group of guys i like, which is why i dont watch a game of nba anymore since they are mostly primadonnas. But again, very insightful, I thought we were a top tier team until you mentioned we were terrible. You can't have a team full of Chris Kelsays and Coy Wires and compete at a professional level, which is why I pointed it out. If you're ok with 6-10 for the rest of your life so be it, many around here are not. And ironically, I don't want Ray Rice on the team either, but not for the same reasons you don't.

eball Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 Haven't read this thread because I dismissed this "rumor" as soon as it came out. We basically have an "NFL exec" of some sort posturing to an SI reporter that if anyone might want Rice it could be Rex because he loved him in Baltimore. That's it. This is about as much of a non-story as Janeane Garafalo taking reps at Pats** OTAs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

enlightener Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 "Thinking" you are a top tier team and actually being one after off season paper crowns are subjectively won. Are two very different things. Stay enlightened! Glad to hear the NFL has mostly no primadonnas i dont really get what your responding to here, but I am ok with an nfl team with a couple jerks, skilled or not, id still like to have had marshawn all these years. But when the jerk to hard worker ratio gets too high, I am less and less of a fan. I root for guys like FJ, Wood, Woods, and williams, and am glad to have em on the team even if they are 2nd tier players, I would hate to have a team full of T.O./Ray rice/incognito type players, just to have their talent. Id rather hope and wish for good chemistry and no distractions to help push us over the edge and win as a solid group of good men. Not add one loser, ie TO or Ray Rice, to try and gain an edge. The nfl is about 2/3rds primadonnas btw, i root for the 1/3rd, and i like hockey now over basketball, which has an almost 9/10 real man to primaddona ratio. Go my son, You have been enlightened.

Buffaloed in Pa Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 Or, it doesn't take intelligent football fans much to realize he is 34 years old and on the decline? The team already wanted to let him loose, but Pegula went all Jerry Jones because of the fans undying love for a 34 year old RB, that probably wouldn't be a starter on any other NFL team. I love the guy. Went out of my way to get his autograph. But I am done wanting guys on the team because of what they do in the community, or what kind of leader they are. He's behind McCoy on the depth chart, and Brown/Williams both have a higher ceiling of what they could become. Whaley gave up a draft pick for Brown, drafted Williams, traded for McCoy...cutting Jackson saves needed money. I am fine with keeping him this year, and would love to see him win here, but not at the expense of cutting a younger, more promising RB. I'd rather have the potential of what Brown/Williams could become, than Jackson's 500 yards rushing this season. But, I definitely do not take Ray Rice over Jackson, Brown, Williams or even Dixon, to be honest. Nailed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 Fred didn't need to be released. The team didn't miss out on any player because they kept him. But he'll have to justify his spot on the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Beebe Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 I can't imagine any team signing him after that video His woman forgave him, so I don't have a problem over the video, but I think he is old and used up so we don't need him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, I definitely do not take Ray Rice over Jackson, Brown, Williams or even Dixon, to be honest. Led the team in first downs last year. That's enough for me. If you watch his film last year, offensively he is a large part of why we went 9-7. (1 game we know for sure) Brown? Can be narrowed down to the very reason we didn't make the playoffs. Maybe it's because we gave something up for him, but geez, he hasn't done enough to warrant such a high ceiling. He had a good game against Chicago, and Oakland in 2013 to make him just barely get over the yards per carry of Dixon this year.

enlightener Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 (edited) wow moulds and reed were better, arguably, Evans was still in his prime that year but lost targets due to TO even though Evans was better a year or so before statistically. Also, he played awfully when here, not trying for balls that landed near his ankles or a foot away from him, some turning into picks that dbs took the other way, he would basically give up on the ball when it wasnt perfect. something reed used to do to todd collins but thats beside the point. He was a baby and caught the balls fitz put right into his basket, thats it. Why whould you be on his bandwagon this hard? Are you related? as for the self beating i was referring to this...http://deadspin.com/5921555/an-interview-with-the-woman-selling-photos-of-a-supposedly-masturbating-terrell-owens Also his "self" ruining of his own persona on his own tv show is pretty "self" beating. Good luck defending him now. He did really well after the bills dumped him (this greatest receiver we ever had) Edited June 4, 2015 by enlightener Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
