Default Stop this madness over one preseason game

What is wrong with you people?

One preseason game, played on a wet field, lost by one point and many are jumping ship.

PLease stop, my head hurts from all the posts critical of the teams:

Offensive line

QB depth

Defensve backfield

Special teams

Chad Jackson, Matt Cassell, Bryant, Maroney, CJ Jones.

You may begn to worry if they play like this in game 3 of preseason or the home opener, until then - hush and act like knowlegible fans of New England please.

I would think a serviceman could at least say please and respect people.

Who are you to make that judgement...have you not read these ridiculous posts since last night?

Why don;t you please not read what I post.

You're right, lets talk about brett favre.

seriously, this is not going to be another 18-0 season so the sooner you get used to weekly knee jerk reactions the better

Sigh, you may be right....how soon they forget about what it was like to dream of winning a home playoff game. In case anyone is keeping score, it "only" took 36 years for that to happen (fog bowl).


I don't care how many games we win this year...as long as we win the LAST one we play (after making playoffs of course)

Hey, if we can't be hand-wringing homers, then live isn't worth living! (and I don't care what you say, Cassell stinks, but there doesn't seem to be anything we can do about it - except complain).

I wouldn't want to be one of those Patriot players that played. They are going to have a long 9-10 days before the next game.

those practices can't be fun

I watched the game again today and it wasn't as bad as most think upfront. As Lamont Jordan said after the game yesterday, things are never as good or as bad as they seem. Baltimore has a good front seven, both 1's and 2's and they attack which is difficult for an O-line with multiple people playing out of position and some newcomers. The O-line wasn't as bad as it seemed and neither were the QB's, the timing was definitely off but that's something you would expect, with this group and in the 1st pre-season game. In addition, a lot of these guys playing won't be here in the reg season.

I too wish Tedy Bruschi could have handed BB a game ball Thursday night.
