He's or she's making the identical point that I was making in this thread.
Is he or she a troll too?
I get it, I get it. I remember you, I do. I spent way too much time trying to get you to think rationally all those years ago, and I'm not going to do that again.
No, you're not here to talk football.
You're here to make fun of the Patriots and piss off Patriots fans, as you've always been.
So this is it, and then I'm done with your silly games, because I remember from the past that it's fruitless:
You can bash Brady all you want, you can say it's his fault even with 80% turnover at the WR position etc etc.
But comparing the Patriots struggling offense with a ton of problems beyond QB play (such as OL play, hard to be an accurate QB when you're getting pressure in 1.5 to 2 seconds every other drop back) to the (this season) hottest offense in the NFL is pretty sad.
To squish your idea that our WRs are so much better than SDs: Our #1 WR this season is a WR that SD dropped last season as scrap! Think about that when you're spewing your tripe.
Here's their stats:
Antonio Gates 64 798 12.5 57 8
Eric Parker 42 581 13.8 38 0
LaDainian Tomlinson 52 479 9.2 51 3
Keenan McCardell 32 394 12.3 28 0
Vincent Jackson 16 262 16.4 55 3
Malcom Floyd 15 210 14.0 46 3
Brandon Manumaleuna 14 91 6.5 19 3
Lorenzo Neal 12 67 5.6 21 0
Michael Turner 2 17 8.5 12 0
Ours:
Benjamin Watson 49 643 13.1 40 3
Reche Caldwell 47 586 12.5 54 3
Troy Brown 35 323 9.2 23 3
Kevin Faulk 39 298 7.6 20 1
Laurence Maroney 18 188 10.4 31 1
Daniel Graham 17 185 10.9 29 2
Chad Jackson 10 131 13.1 35 3
Jabar Gaffney 6 101 16.8 33 0
Corey Dillon 8 68 8.5 27 0
David Thomas 3 52 17.3 29 0
Patrick Pass 2 24 12.0 16 0
Heath Evans 3 15 5.0 10 1

Doug Gabriel 25 344 13.8 45 3 (RELEASED)
So.. Ben Watson is better than Gates?
So.. Caldwell, who SD dropped last season, is better than Parker?
So.. Faulk is better than Tomlinson (RB as a reciever comparison)?
So.. Brown is better than McCardell?
So.. Gaffney and Chad Jackson are better than Vincent Jackson and Malcom Floyd?
Maybe in time this will all be true after these new players meld into the offense, but as you can see the stats don't support your idea. That's because the experience level isn't there yet for our WRs in this system. We don't have a Tomlinson to take pressure off of our passing game. We've got old, slow Corey Dillon and a rookie RB who looked really good for four or five weeks before coming back down to earth for the next 9 or 10.
My advice to you: Get a hobby.
Your obsession with a rival team is weird and unhealthy. It's persisted for years now and I think you're on the verge of needing clinical help. If you do keep up your Patriots-obsession, then at least stop posting things that are purely inflamitory. Try to put aside your hatred for this team and actually talk reality when it comes to football.
Seek help, good luck.
