If you watch a game at a sports bar and one out of 10 fans screams "You A-Hole" after a bad play,do you call the entire pub bad fans? Of course not. Either way,I'm not one of them.

I apologize if you or anyone else took it as calling all Patriot fans as being that way. I was talking about the people who were getting way out of line in their venting.

it was more than 1 or 2 comments, btw

Thats why OC's need a lot of NFL experience, to see changes, to make the counter moves, and to understand what is in your opposing coaches heads..and how they trend...

McDaniels is far too much out of his league, and he did nothing to sustain the offense in the second half, to give the defense some breathing time... the longest drive the Pats had in the second half consisted of 6 plays...all the rest were 3, 4 or 5 plays and then nothing........

Extremely silly post. Does McDaniels play safety or Linebacker while the defense is on the field?

Its a clear distinction, it should be a no-brainer, and a lot of that attitude was on display the other night and I, as a grateful fan, felt it should be called out.

However, if anyone feels its ok to call Tedy Bruschi a turd, Mike Vrabel a turd, or say Tom Brady choked, after what they have meant to this city, and knowing that they dont owe us a thing, than thats a "fan" who should go root for the Jets or something.

There are "fans" who pull that stuff when we don't win impressively enough.

I think it's too much exposure to Mercury.

We compete every year and we have the picks and money to fix our problems.

I think we need to draft WRs with our first 4 picks.

You've got a point regarding those fans who refer to our players as "turds". I was thinking the same thing. However, these fans do not represent the entire fan, at least those on this board.
