JE11 on Garoppolo

[SHOWTIME15]

JG is not coming here. Mac is our QB.

No, Brady is your QB...

 

[Biffins]

And yet a lot of fans on this site wanted to trade Brady and keep Jimmy

So did BB. BB showed poor judgment and glad Kraft veto’ed him.

 

[Ochmed Jones]

I guess it depends on what bb would have gotten for trading Brady and if bb could have gotten toughened jimmy up a bit.

If that would've happened, Brady would already have 8 rings.

Idiotic comment of the month.

 

[Lavictoire]

“I still wonder how BB knew that he could hold pat and still get Mac…..”

Me too! Another legendary Bellichick move. Kinda like not calling time out at the end of the Seattle Super Bowl.

 

[1960Pats]

I agree that JG might not want to play depending on the severity of the injury. But that was not the players complaint. They called JG a ***** because he practiced all week and then backed out on the weekend. They clearly state that JG did not aggravate the injury but backed out because his agent told him. You are making things up that the players clearly state is not the situation.

I was actually agreeing with Deus that we don't know what happened. All we know for sure is that he didn't play and that's his choice, not Edelman's or Bennett's.

 

[1960Pats]

I know it's no problem to dump on any players we want here, but the HC is off limits.

JG is not coming here. Mac is our QB.

This season will speak volumes.

Its about winning and execution. Ask Drew Bledsoe.

Nah, Mac's seat isn't warm this season. If he shows no improvement or regresses next season then maybe.

Depends.

BB has been trying to get Jimmy back ever since he left.

 

[Rob0729]

Yet none of those 3 have medical degrees or viewed his mri. We all know how office rumors spread like wildfire, a lot of times w/o foundation or based on misinformation. Regardless, I find it odd that JE11 would come out and slam Jimmy, who in fact contributed that year to a SB winning season.

This will have zero effect on his trade value. Teams will look at his last 3 seasons, which are very good when he wasn't injured. It'd be funny if he gets traded to CAR to see Brady vs Garappolo twice a year.

His numbers is misleading because he will throw a dump of to Deebo Samuel who will pick up 20 yards on the ground. Samuel led the league last year in yards after the catch with 10.2 yards after the catch average.

Get Real.

I was actually agreeing with Deus that we don't know what happened. All we know for sure is that he didn't play and that's his choice, not Edelman's or Bennett's.

Agreed. And it is Bennett's and Edelman's choice to call JG a ***** if they think he led the team on and then back out at the last minute.

 

[1960Pats]

Agreed. And it is Bennett's and Edelman's choice to call JG a ***** if they think he led the team on and then back out at the last minute.

Yes, Edelman and Bennett are within their right. And I'm within my right to criticize their opinion of JG's action. His football future was in a precarious position, not Edelman's or Bennett's.

Agreed. But Bennett and Edelman were there in the locker room, and eye witnesses to the whole affair. You base your whole opinion on hearsay. Therefore, people listen to what Edelman and Bennett have to say, nobody listens to you.

 

[Biffins]

I know it's no problem to dump on any players we want here, but the HC is off limits.

Why is he off limits lol? And why would it be ok to criticise all players but not HC.

 

[bresna]

Agreed. But Bennett and Edelman were there in the locker room, and eye witnesses to the whole affair. You base your whole opinion on hearsay. Therefore, people listen to what Edelman and Bennett have to say, nobody listens to you.

But if Garoppolo had caved in to guys like Edelman and Bennett back then and seriously injured his shoulder, he might have missed out on $137 Million. That's $137 Million. I don't know why this is even a discussion... Garoppolo made the right decision here. We might not like it. Edelman might not like it. Bennett certainly didn't like it. But in the end, the Patriots won the Super Bowl that year so his decision did not adversely affect the team's success.

 

[Kasmir]

Me too! Another legendary Bellichick move. Kinda like not calling time out at the end of the Seattle Super Bowl.

My guess is that BB had nearly the same grade on Mills as on Mac, so he was willing to take Mills later if Mac didn't fall.

 

[Kasmir]

His numbers is misleading because he will throw a dump of to Deebo Samuel who will pick up 20 yards on the ground. Samuel led the league last year in yards after the catch with 10.2 yards after the catch average.

To be fair, an accurate QB helps receivers maximize YAC.
