Yeah exactly. The way I think of it, we just had the thing that every other fanbase thinks is unrealistic fantasy talk for their teams. We are playing with house money forever.I have talked about it many times. This team owes me zip. 6 rings. Six. Stop it. Suffering with the HughMillenated years, the 1-15's, the Rod Rust Era, the Yay! **** McPherson Era, walking up and buying a ticket to opening day at the box office the day of... I never thought they'd win one, much less six. I am in.
It all starts with the draft and Bill has been bad since 2013 (can't wait to hear resistance from a Team Bill's representative on this). He needs to get better at that. And this board is really overrating this years draft. He needs to do one of two things: 1. Find a future QB (preferred) or 2. Have a solid draft and try for a QB the following year.
They also gagged HARD, let a QB who is one or two notches above Tebow beat them and proved that they were never a serious contender. I don't consider being playoff cannon fodder for real contenders the standard. It's going to take a little while to become a true contender. But sure, if we can find a QB and a couple of weapons we could sneak into the wild card spot next year. Unlikely, but certainly possible.****, the Browns made the playoffs this year. Of course there's a chance.
You really feel that threatened by one thread? WowAre we allow to talk Pats here still?
Thought it was a Bucs fan forum.
Right now the four highest threads are Bucs threads - and that doesn't include other threads that get started, and then merged into one of the Bucs threads.You really feel that threatened by one thread? Wow
I think the Patriots can be a playoff contender as early as next year if they can find a competent QB but think they are likely at least another year away from serious contention. I do not expect them to ever get back to dynasty status but if they can become like the last decade Saints, Steelers or Ravens where they are almost always in contention for the division and occasionally a real Super Bowl threat I would consider that a major success for the 2020's.

There is also an ongoing situation of certain forum members that only joined within the last three weeks - after the Patriots were eliminated - attempting to hijack every other thread on a daily basis, and turn it into a BB vs TB conversation.
Back when my wife and I were first married, she asked me "why do you watch these iceholes if they make you so mad?" I replied that someday they were gong to be good and I was going to be loyal. That was 1990.Yeah exactly. The way I think of it, we just had the thing that every other fanbase thinks is unrealistic fantasy talk for their teams. We are playing with house money forever.
I believe Belichick has said he can win with an average QB.we make the playoff this year if we had even average QB play. Cam was terrible. Bring in an average QB, some WR help and then draft
I'm not saying we'll be exactly as good as the 2020 Browns, I'm just saying the Browns are a cursed franchise that never should have made the playoffs, but they did.They also gagged HARD, let a QB who is one or two notches above Tebow beat them and proved that they were never a serious contender.
