You just described two mistakes. Allen being better than both of them doesn't instantly make it a smart move. As has been pointed out, Allen helps us next year, but this team needs to be looking far beyond that. Bringing in a player like him now, regardless of how much he would instantly improve...
So Ridley at any price is what you were wanting? If the Pats offered $25 million a year and the Titans countered with $30 million, are you still going?
Also, I had the discussion with 5 people at work today, none of which are Bears fans. (And no Patriots fans for that matter) Not one person...
Agreed, it would be a story if it came out that the Rams had a deal in place to trade us Cooper Kupp in 2019 but Belichick decided he'd rather have Justin Bethel. I'm just not seeing any examples of difference making talent on offense or defense we've lost or refused to sign because we kept a...
It's a lot like bringing Bill O'Brien back. I live in Texas, and when the reports first started that the Pats were looking to bring him back, every Texans fan I talked to made this face and complained about how he ran Houston into the ground.
Once I said I don't need him to make personnel...
15 years from now:
*Gonzalez is widely considered the greatest CB in league history, and arguably the greatest defender of all time.
*White's career rivaled that of Richard Seymour.
*Mapu routinely lead the league in tackles and was top 5 in forced fumbles most years.
*Sow moved to OT, and...
Agreed. It's real easy to name multiple players we should have drafted, and that list always dwindles down to 1 or 2 guys years later and it's always magically the most successful.
It's just like taking Harry in 2019. (I'm obviously not denying it was a bad pick) How often do we see "I can't...
So now you want to give "T-Rex arms" Thuney a lot of money after dogging the drafting of him back in 2016? I guess this you admitting you were very much wrong?
I was with my cousin when I saw the news of this extension, told him, and he responds with: "I don't know if he's the answer, but they're not going to get anyone better."
That's my problem. I don't care what the market is, $46 million per year should buy you a hell of a lot more than "not going...
Packers tickets seem to be crazy cheap for some reason. My cousin went there with a co-worker for the divisional round playoff game against Seattle in 2019.
Playoff game. 50 yard line. Row 7. $400 each.
Agreed. There are some circumstances in which cutting/trading a player is instantly addition by subtraction. Albert Haynesworth is an example. But the Pats aren't better without Agholor just because he's overpaid.
If we make it through training camp and Thornton and Parker both look fantastic...
