I am a pretty avid sportsbettor, and I was afraid to lay -17 also, OTG.

That didn't stop me from taking the 'over' though

As long as there are no significant injuries, and the team continues to move in the right direction, all will be good. I don't personally fault you for being a bit more concerned than many others though.
 
Just to recapitulate, as a precaution to anyone else making the same mistake that Brother Rob ~ who prints exceptionally excellent posts 99.9999% of the time, mind you!! ~ did:

My first point was a GENERAL one, NOT specific to the Patriots.

DC's ~ even exceptional DC's ~ having issues with young QB's who've had time to master their own Systems, but who haven't played in games much at all...goes back to my earliest experience...And as most of you clearly perceive, based on our own history and the league's ~ again: no offense, Rob, we all miss a point now and then ~ these situations tend to produce trouble FAR more often than one would generally expect out of a young, inexperienced Quater Back.

Having said all that...

May we DEMOLISH them, tonight!! :rocker:

Well said, sir.

And good luck with the Over, tonight...what is it?
 


Whenever I get a bit concerned about this game, I just remember Todd Haley is coaching the opposition, and I instantly relax.
 
1 ~ When you first posted on the previous page, you WERE the only one here drawing ~ or, rather: JUMPING to ~ the Flynn comparison. Sorry. You LOSE.

2 ~ You seem to be having serious issues processing this simple fact, but I'll try once more: MY POINT WAS NOT SPECIFIC TO THE PATS.

3 ~ Just because you were lazy and made a false assumption and I called you on it is no reason to whine about it and lash out at me. You COULD just admit that you made a mistake, jumped to a false conclusion, and that I busted you on it...But I won't be holding my breath.

Not to go back and forth on this, I just figured you were talking about the endless myth that has been going on that the Pats struggle against back up QBs. For that I apologize. I guess you know what they say, when you make assumptions you make an arse out of you and umptions.

Class act, Brother Rob. Thanks, man.

I, too, apologize, as I think I may've leaned on the "wise @$$" button a bit.

It's no secret that I have immense respect for your Work, here.
 
Ahhh...The Eternal Wisdom of Off The Grid!!

Never doubted the outcome for a SECOND!! :lol2:

See, if I could've just somehow seen that first, I wouldn't have wasted my money on that stupid over pick...

It was actually 46 1/2, but I bought it down to 45 instead to be safe.

Really thought I'd have gotten a 28-17 game, or something to that effect.

Stupid...stupid...stupid...
