Hey you, Chicken Littles

Yeah you, the guys that said "trade mankins? well there goes the season, this team can't win anything with Connolly and Wendell as offensive linemen, stupidest move BB ever made"

And you, fella who was all "Kraft is Cheap, he never spends any money"

Lets not forget the guys who said "Another year where they don't give brady any weapons, why does BB hate brady?"

or those folks who said "This team can't be a good defense without a down field threat, we HAVE to trade for larry fitzgerald.

All of you, I have just one question.

How's that humble pie tasting?

ia and the "I can't stand it......" thread from pastrdumbazz should go down in history.

Personally, I think Ian should make that thread required reading for all new posters.

SPO was awful all year too. A real idiot.

On a sadder note, it's a real shame MoLewisRocks isn't here to enjoy this win.

Where is FredfromDartmouth? He has conveniently disappeared.

Trading Mankins didn't concern me as much as losing Dante Scarnecchia. Losing Blount and Talib left some uncertainty. I didn't like the Browner and Revis pickups: big flashy expensive contracts and I thought they would give opponents free penalty yards up and down the field. In Bill Belichick I trusted begrudgingly and I am more than happy to have my doubts proven wrong

This team was well built. Best offense? probably not, most effective and balanced offense? YES. Ditto for the D. This team beat many teams in different ways, Colts struggled with the run so we ran it down there throats. Seattle struggles with short shifty guys, we have Edelman, Shane and amendola all of who had huge games. On D we have different guys for different scenarios. A deep threat is no longer a desire as it seems Brady just cant zing it like he used to neither does he have to. Dink and Dunk till you get enough.
#4 feels good

If someone doesn't agree with something that Belichick does, would he be considered a "chicken Little?"

I was upset at first with the Mankins trade, and I'm still not convinced that they would have lost if they had him. But as the season went on and the OL started to gel, it wasn't that big of a deal. Now that the season is over and the Pats have won, I'm willing to forgive him for his mistake.

The fans who bothered me the most were those who doubted our team over Mediagate.

you are out of your mind if you think trading mankins was a mistake.

We just won the championship guys so channeling the late Rodney King.."Cant we all just get along"

Is Tim Wright a project or....why was he a non factor the whole playoffs? Fans boys think it was an amazing trade and littles think it was awful. I think it was an ok trade. Very risky IMO. Tim Wright might be ok in the future but this year he didn't show a whole lot

What does it matter what Tim Wright, did, does, will do, or dosent do? The Offensive Line is better than it was last year and absolutely better than it was with Mankins in those "oh so important" Superbowl games.

Wright, the pick, and the extra cap room are gravy.

Give him this off season training camp to work in our offense and let's see what he can do next year.

Don't forget we also got a draft pick AND cap space.
