Oh yeah, a fan of whom?

Did YOUR team have a parade 5 weeks ago?

You are basing your judgement on
Day 2 of free agency.

We, on the other hand, root for a team that wins DURING the season.

Yes and I made the parade. Dude I never said this team is falling out of grace!! They are gonna win games but they just lost a huge playmaker on defense! !! You dont replace a guy like that with the jaabal sheards or another rookie corner. They will make their moves but most likely scraps.

You dont. All you can do is try and beef up your dline. Make your dline
stronger.

I was not aware that Sheards, a LB, was going to take over at starting cornerback...

Enter Jabaal Sheard. My God.

I do not see people saying the Patriots are gonna suck...I just see people mourning the loss of a great player and a good defense.

Brady and the rest will still do what they do.....sorry if some people love defense.

Today is the 2nd day of free agency. And this is real life, not madden.

I havent played madden in probably 15 years so that attempt at an insult really struck a chord.

And you say I live in video game land? You just implied that the pats can make up for the loss of Revis through free agency. GOLD.

Their insults belie their deep seated denial. They are unable to reason, so instead attack with names and slogans.

Meh, been there done that.

It's all good. Everyone's a bit out of sorts because Darrelle left. Last year's defense might be the best we see in a LONG time, unfortunately. 'Twas fun while it lasted.

Only chicken littles find the word offensive, so I guess the glove fits.

I guess I was offended, not entertained. Thanks for informing me how I reacted to that, I was unaware.

The goal is to have a competitive team every year, i am confident that we can built a respectable unit even without Revis and Browner.Also we just won the Superbowl that itself entitle Bill to make any move he wants.We can get away with lack of talent through good coaching, so yes we can repeat even without them as long as we play efficient football.

Have you seen what the pats have done for the last 15 years?

You mean this,

Since 2000

Regular season record: 137-53
AFC East titles: 12
Afc Championships: 9 won 6
Super bowls: 6 won 4

Maybe we we should strap on a bungee cord to these doom and gloomers belt loop to stop them from hitting the pavement when they jump off the bridge.

No. What are the 'pats'?

Some of us don't deserve this team and FO.

The chicken littles are the people who, if they ever had had the money to invest, would have sold their Apple shares the first time the stock dipped five percent. They would have missed out on millions.

Impressive, most impressive.

Maybe it's just me, but I wish we'd retire the phrase "chicken little" on this board.
