Oh well, at least we have the Red Sox and Celtics.

Bandwagon/Fairweather fan! Go home, no one needs you.

Except he's going to stick around and do this crap every single week like he did last year when we were winning every game.

folks wake up. we're are very lucky we have the reigning MLB and NBA champs to fall back on. how many other cities could ever say that? per my count ZERO. it's great to be a boston fan, even with pats in a rebuilding mode.

Sorry if I am redundant because I didn't even bother reading through this thread, but I am getting tired of these threads. Yes, the Pats' chances of winning the Super Bowl are greatly reduced now that Brady is gone. But the Pats had no chance of winning the Super Bowl in 2001 (people thought they may be the worst team in football going into season that year) and Brady was in dink and dunk mode that year. People also thought the Giants would be lucky to even make the playoffs last as late as early December.

I am not hopeful that the Pats will get to or win the Super Bowl. But I wouldn't be surprised if the Pats win the division and if they are hitting their stride right they do some damage in the Super Bowl. I sat and watched the entire 2000 season and I watched the beginning of 2001 season think we had no hope of winning. This is the great thing of the NFL any team can come out of nowhere and win the Super Bowl.

OK arsehole, time for you to go back under the rock from which you crawled. Really, I've not seen one single post from you -- ever -- that contributed anything remotely intelligent to this board. Do us a favor and pack it in. :banned:

With or without Brady, the team needed a lot of work to get back to the elite level. In some ways, if it had to happen, better now than later in the season.

Seems to me another team way back in the 70's went undefeated with their backup QB.

Why not this New England team?

Besides, our two supposed AFC super rivals, the Bolts and the Dolts lost at home to NFC foes.

There is lotsa football to be played.

- I don't like our RBs Of course you don't. You've been spewing idiocy against Maroney for the past year.
- We have a good TE (Watson) Too bad he didn't play.
- Our QB is unproven and his only memorable appearance was getting a quick hook after nearly blowing a big lead against Miami last year when spelling Brady Sorry, I remember Cassel playing against Miami in 2005 and nearly upsetting the plan to play Jacksonville by actually putting the Pats in a position to win the game.
- We have an Oline that seems to be getting weaker (wasted in Super Bowl, allowed season ending hit on Brady) The O-line didn't allow the hit on Brady. That was MORRIS. Who is a RB.. But you've never been one to let the facts stand in your way of your pathetic rants.
- We have an aging defense that let them down big time in the Super Bowl and AFC Championship 2 years ago *ROFLMAO* The Patriots added Mayo, Wilhite, Guyton, Slater and Crabel, yet they are "an aging defense" Damn you are an idiot.
- Our kicking games are adequate, but nothing special And you can tell all that based on ONE game? The only issue I had was with the punt return unit. The others played excellently.

- We have excellent coaches however they are targets for the league and media So they are targets for the league and the media. SO WHAT?

Oh well, at least we have the Red Sox and Celtics.

Please say you won't post anymore since you are clearly jumping off the bandwagon.

VJCPatriot · 09-08-2008, 12:43 PM

Please jump off the bandwagon and NEVER come back. It's fairweather fans like you that make me sick. No really, I feel nauseated after reading this self-pity tirade. Losing Brady HURTS, but there's no way I'm giving up on MY TEAM because of it! If that's all it takes for you to write off the Pats, news flash, you weren't that big of a Pats fan!
