Anyone can break the game down to the X's & O's especially those of us who have played & coached the game. But let us not confuse them with guys who have never played the game and have learned much of what they know by playing madden & fantasy games.
Let's get this straight, the word FAN is derived from the word FANATIC OR FANATICAL. Which means a real fan is based more upon EMOTION than upon geek statistics. We are dedicated and loyal to our team regardless of statistics and we are EMOTIONAL about our team.
Anything less are just PRETENDERS!
Sorry, but you aren't a fan. Your an arsehole. And, in all honesty, I don't believe for a second that you have played or even coached.
YOU are the pretender. And your insistence on insulting people because your a fool who doesn't understand the game shows that you are the pretender.
As long as we distinguish the difference between the fake fans who are ONLY interested in stats, Madden & Fantasy football & the real fans.
Fan sites are mainly for fans excited about their team. It' not a place for fantasy geeks to meet for tea & crumpets. Madden and fantasy football are ruining what being a fan is truly supposed to be.
Who are you to say that people who play Madden and Fantasy football aren't real fans? Your a friggin NOBODY. YOU aren't a real fan. Real fans don't ***** on other people just for asking a simple LEGITIMATE question.
I don't play Madden. Yes, I play fantasty football. I've also played football. Fantasy football is something I do for fun because its a strategy game.
As for learning about the game, I've learned a tremendous amount about the game from FAN SITES. More than I did from playing the game because I chose to play hockey through High School instead of football.
I've been rooting for the Pats since 1982. I remember Grogan, Tippett, Lippett, Morgan, Hannah, etc... I've been a fan through the lean years of the late 80's early 90s. And I continue to be a fan now.
I guess you misread my comment regarding that moss' job is 90% catching the ball. I said NOTHING about how often we ran it.
I did find the question iteresting to comment upon as the number of my comments will attest. But the source of my interest lay in the negativity of it's nature.
Too bad that the negativity was put there by YOU and not the original poster.
I was also interested in Moss' run blocking, but not from an x's and o's perspective.
There has been alot of speculation here and in the media about Moss and how he would perform. It looks like we got the old Moss at least for yesterday, however, is it the old Moss with the baggage or is there anything else we might see that would indicate that Moss has truly drunk from the Patriot Kool-Aid? Aggressively commiting to run blocking assignments might indicate the latter.
Given that Moss's ability to remain healthy is in question, I wouldn't mind if he didn't block -- in fact I wouldnt mind if they sat him until the first week of the playoffs (seeing as how apparantly he doesnt need practice games to be in top shape)

Oh really? Let's see, I think the original post said something like, "what I'm interested in is did Randy maintain his blocks and especially if he did when the play was away from him"
Read between the lines...."I don't care that he shocked the world with his catches and gave Brady a much needed target he can be confident in....something he lacked all last season...what I care about is did he give his all even when he wasn't making the best plays of the game"
Jeesh! What I care about is does Tom Brady execute his follow through perfectly even when he completes a 50 yard touchdown bomb...forget the fact that he threw a 50 yard touchdown bomb...You are unbelieveable! Focus on all the great plays we saw. None of us is pretending to be a coach and can do nothing about what a player is NOT doing, so why even worry about it?
