Another loser pink hat. Let me explain this slowly.
Brady looked like junk week one. Inaccurate passes and generally poor play overall.
Lots of us said Brady played a bad game week 1, and none of us had anyone jump down our throats. The reason why is because we called it what it was: a bad game. Where you went off the rails, and got called out extensively, is in that you went
way beyond just calling it a bad game. You were ready to bury the team in general and Brady specifically and declare them irrelevant based on that one performance.
That is what every reasonable poster here objected to. It was way, way too hysterical of an overreaction based on
one game. As many of us pointed out at the time, all you had to do was wait a week for the doomsday prognostications to look utterly foolish.
These aren’t even my words. These are NFL writers.
I laugh at all who are so deluded that they cannot see reality. Again, this what happens to all forums time. The instant cracks appear, those who refuse to see them go running for the hills if someone dares to call as it is. I said nothing different than (paid) media members across the board were saying.
NFL writers are some of the dumbest mother****ers on the planet earth. No case is made stronger by citing the fact that the Sal Paolantonios and John Claytons and Chris Mortensens agree with you.
An 8-8 team is what we saw week one. Period. An 8-8 team has its QB, a tackle who never says anything, and others calling out the team for its lack of effort. Teams can go one way or the other. The ‘09 team went in one direction, this one seems to be heading the other way which is great. Time still will tell.
And therein lies the complete pointlessness of making broad, sweeping declarations based on one game. Every year, the patriots play at least 2 games where, if you took them in a vacuum, you'd conclude that the team sucks and is going nowhere. That's the nature of the game, and it's why everyone who's been around the block a couple times knows not to do it. Again, nobody criticized you for acknowledging that the Pats played a ****ty game. The problem was when you started making sweeping declarations about the trajectory of the team and the GOAT QB's career arc based on that one game.
Contracraption and his gang will be the first to leave when the current dysnasty is over. That will be good because those who cannot accept facts as they currently are aren’t needed.
To be blunt, I'll take his understanding of football and of the team--strengths, weaknesses, broad perspective, all of it--over damn near anyone else here's, and certainly over yours. If your argument requires you to conclude that 98% of this forum is pink hats, it's likely that you're the one who isn't coming from a place of reason.
It's really kind of a bummer, I was genuinely hoping you'd take the week 2 performance as an opportunity to reconsider whether you'd overreacted and try to approach the forum and the game itself in a more measured and reasonable way. Based on this post, it sure looks like you decided to double down on a load of bs instead.
