Aaaargh! Maybe he means 1 play




He's a grade A moron. Teams across the NFL are sitting their starters in week 18 if they have nothing to play for at all. No reason to risk injury for the next season.

Mayo - Play everyone. What an *******.

He's not just inept, he is an *******.

It will cost him his job if he loses against Bills backup with our starters.
 
This is going to be like a third preseason game. All kinds of sloppy football and Mayo calling unpracticed plays in desperation. He's going to get someone(s) injured trying to secure a win that helps no one but himself.

I really want Maye to start and play a couple of drives and then insert Milton on a 2nd down at some point to simulate a QB injury and he enters as the backup QB. To simulate a real situation.
 
Eagles are resting starters, not going to get Saquon the record but means Giants got a chance to win.
Texans are playing everybody but probably for 1 half. So, some hope for a TN win.
Browns looks like a loss still.
Pats win could still keep us in 2-3 maybe.
 
Funny how it took Week 18 for Mayo to look really focused for a win. Watch them have Zero back breaking penalties on Sunday. The timing I tell you.
I tell you this team isn't serious about losing Sunday.
 
It was dead -- not much to cheer for, as you know. I was kind of surprised there wasn't much booing but near the end you could hear "Fire Mayo" chants break out here and there. Mayo letting the clock run out to end the game when they were in scoring territory pissed me off. Hell, why not try to score? He just gave up and THAT earned some well-deserved boos.

I'll be there again Sunday because a buddy arranged to go with me months ago. But, I can't recall a more worthless game in my 31 years as season ticket holder.
I agree, a lot of the game was people talking to people around them about Christmas and plans for New Years. I’m sure the chatter at this Sundays game will be should they win or lose.

They can't actually say "we plan to lose this game as badly as possible." Of course, given Mayo's pronouncements right now, there's probably about, oh, a 40% chance that Milton starts this week.
 
I was thinking about scooping up some cheap great seats… and then I saw a low of 18F. I’m not freezing my ass off for THIS version of this team. If it changes by Saturday I’ll reconsider.
 
What if this was a test too lol. Kraft says “do what you think is best”, Mayo said “I’m playing Drake, I wanna win!!!!!!” Kraft says “wrong answer, you’re fired” after the game.

If only…
