Lord, it's a miracle... I'm enjoying a Borges column...

Extremely complimentary of Brady... good things to say about almost every aspect of the team, even (gulp) the coaching?!?? Some funny lines too. A little snark, to be sure, but if that wasn't there, I'd wonder if Borges actually WROTE this. LOL

I wouldn't read that troll if you paid me.

 

[realtime]

His weekly report cards are always good reads. The fact that he is an opinionated assbag and a worse evaluator of college talent than Bobby Grier does not IMO make his articles any less enjoyable.

 

[OhExaulted1]

Yeah, he can be insufferable but his grades were fair and wasn't tainted with his usual disdain for all things Belichick.

 

[jimache]

... i'm not clicking that link if my life depended on it; don't give crap what he says, good or bad

 

[karguy85]

He gave Brady a grade of B+ and Garoppolo an A...

 

[BobDigital]

I almost would want to give 2 different Grades for each quarter. Here are my grades (first 4 weeks, next 5 weeks & half season total. A = elite, B = good, C = meh, D = bad, F = kill me now

QB - B/A+ - total of A-
RB - B-/C - total of C+
TE - B/A+ - total of A-
WR - C/B+ - total of B-
OL - F/B - total of C-
DL - B/B- - total of B
LB - A-/B+ - total B+
DB - B+/A - total A-

I wish they eased up the rules on copy/pasting here to let people post Borges articles so he doesn't get any extra clicks.

So, now that makes the Patriots a career 1-472 in his win/loss column. Hey, it's a start...

 

[Gumby]

Didn't and won't click!

If he actually had a quote or two worth reading ok someone (who was going any way) should post that, but just posting B-, A+ ...... Whatever, please don't bother.

I have little interest in Borgazz' opinion expressed in single letters

 

[PatsFanSince74]

Thanks for the info, but I haven't clicked on the Horrald site or spent a dime on its paper version since the days of Tomass and I'm not going to start now.

He's always complimentary of Brady. Ever since he got over his hard on for Drew.

It's only happened because Drew got soft...oops...

Your 1 Q for the O-line overlooks that sacks were down vs 2013, and the Team ended up 2-2. So they were NOT an F. Producing a 0-4 gets a F, generating a non-losing .500 record merits an average grade or slightly below; or C-.

 

[Patriot Missile]

Thought the Few Good Men code red comment was funny. Other than that, the article sucked as usual.

Why grade every individual player?
Jimmy G gets a A for holding the clipboard.
Casillas gets an A for 1 game worth of work while Hightower gets the B+ For being the breakout catalyst of the LB corps. Check please!

Beware. It's a trap.

 

[patriot lifer]

OT, but I wonder if someday he will present BB for Canton. I can't find his age online.

 

[Brady_to_Moss]

still not reading it. If he wrote it..i would rather ask a jets fan for football advice...and that's just plain wrong
