Official Free Agency 2018

[long distance]

I dont care if Tom Brady set any regular season records and won the MVP, he chocked on the grandest stage of them all and was a contributor to a Super Bowl loss. He can be the greatest quarterback known to mankind, yet he whiffed in embarrasing fashion on of the most important downs of the most important game.

You can insert any name into this sentence and it will be true. There was not a single player on this team that did not screw up at some point during this game.

Where was Malcom Brown and his first round pedigree in this most important game ? Where was Trey Flowers apart from being always a step late on his "rushes" ? KVN ? Lawrence Guy ? Dietrich Wise ? Eric Lee ? Where they all with that fat **** of a DL at the food court ?

But instead lets just bash special teamers who got into the game for a few snaps and dare to miss one tackle.

And please either shut up or respond in a reasonable manner instead of making this about the clearly overdramatic use of Brady in the initial example. Point being is that you cant judge players by single mistake. Clearly Brady played a great game and still the strip sack was even more impactful than the missed tackle. Similarly, Brown didnt make any as obvious errors as Bademosi or Brady and, yet, with his ineffectiveness on almost every snap contributed more to a loss than any of the two.

You can take this a step further and say the same things about SB winning PHI D . rated by everybody and especially vast majority of Pats fans as much more talented. Both D's were losing the game of inches and milliseconds in uncanny rate..

At the end . as per usual . BB gave the ball in TB hands for a final 2-minute drill and it didn't work out. History. On to 2018 FGS..

luuked never claimed that Brady choked if you read the post again.

I read his post. Perhaps you should read it again. He was trying to argue via equation.

He was simply plugging in Brady's name for Bademosi to highlight in an extreme example that nobody was perfect that game. So his logic used to call out Bademosi could be applied to anybody on the field that day.

Yes, and he did so by going down the choke road, as if there's only perfect and choke, and nothing in between, because all failures can be looked at as chokes. It was a very stupid argument. I tried to be polite enough not to say that. Congrats on you, I guess for bringing it out of me, by not seeing his argument for what it was.

He wasn't the one who inserted the word "choke" in there.

No, he was the one who tried to equate to it by using a terrible comparison as his example.

Yawn.

Joshson Bademosi is a JAG special teamer who chokes in big moments and should’ve never played those snaps over Butler in the first place, if not for an all time horrendous coaching decision.

Tom Brady is the greatest QB of all time who’s won five Super Bowls, appeared in three other close ones, and has never been a detriment to his team in the big game.

Try harder.

 

[long distance]

Unfortunately Bademosi seems to be gone. By some miracle another team seems to be very interested in him..

Liked the player, liked the name.

Such subtleties are beyond the grasp of many posters.

People love a good redemption story. Think about the whole John Elway narrative in 1997.

Earnest Byner - Wikipedia

In the 1987 AFC Championship game he was instrumental in a Browns comeback from a 21–3 deficit to place the Browns in position to win the game. With the score tied at 31 midway through the 4th quarter, the Broncos scored a go-ahead touchdown to make the score 38–31 with six minutes to play. In the ensuing Cleveland drive the Browns worked the ball down the field to reach the Denver 8 yard line with a little over a minute left in the game. On the next play Byner took the Kosar handoff to run off left tackle. Byner powered past the Bronco line and looked sure to score a game-tying touchdown when Bronco defensive back Jeremiah Castille managed to strip him of the ball. The play, now known simply as The Fumble, became the play for which Byner is best remembered. The fumble marred an otherwise impressive performance, as he finished the game with 67 rushing yards, seven receptions for 120 yards, and two touchdowns.

Byner played another season with Cleveland before being traded to the Washington Redskins for running back Mike Oliphant before the start of the 1989 season. In Super Bowl XXVI, in 1992, he caught a touchdown pass in the second quarter, and the Redskins won, giving him the NFL Championship he could not win with the Browns.

Some people never get over those things; let's hope Hill is one that can, like Byner.

For whatever reason the Solder thread is locked. I thought this was interesting, from his press conference:



I guess it depends on what "somewhat equal" means to him. But our local media guys had been under the impression that if the money was in the ballpark he'd stick around here. They were wrong. I'm also surprised that the Patriots went that high. Unless Solder is just being generous to the Patriots....

On the brighter side:

Watch: Controversial fumble call goes against Lewis, Pats

The difference? We have Brady ...

 

[maineman209]

Davis: 5'9"/223 ... turns 26 on May 11.

In SEA last season (his 3rd year in the league) ...
68/240 (3.5 ypa) ... 15 of 18 receiving (83%), 131 yds (8.7 ypc)

Doesn't seem like much, although the Seahawks' run-blocking unit was 2nd-worst in the NFL (the Lions just barely edged them out).

Like Zenner, more or less a 6th-round cost, but with 3 years NFL experience.

The draft profile on nfl.com seems to indicate that he was arrested more than once and suspended by the coaches. Surely, there has to be better options out there ?

 

[FreeTedWilliams]

I would like to see Waddle and/or Fleming locked up today. Not having any experience at LT is very troubling.

 

[dtbrks]

i have whoever you are yelling at on ignore, so it looks like you are just raging at the empty air.

its pretty fun.

ditto for me.. kind of funny

 

[FoxboroFlyer]

Mike Davis, and Thomas Rawls are both pretty interesting options. As @maineman209 pointed out, they ran behind a horrendous oline. Rawls looked damn good his rookie year when he filled in for Lynch.

Can anyone post his rap sheet?

Corey Dillon was a problem child on the Bengals before he came to us and that one worked out pretty well.
