Do you want the Patriots to win or lose versus Giants?

[Real fan 02]

This is a tough question as a fan, but…the truth of the matter is this. Winning this game does zero to advance the future of this team. Losing this game has a chance to advance the future of this team.
your answer lies there.

BB will tell you he wants to win every game. However if you get a chance check out the Rob ninkovich peice. He was reporting that how pissed off ownership is about the season and the direction of the team. As we all know BB has had so much say and power. Last season is what ruined this QB and the direction of the organization. This season is just a culmination of all those things.

Fcuk it losing is for losers. Go Pats

They'll win this weekend. The recent trend has been win one, lose three, win one, lose three, so I like our chances Sunday.

They won last weekend when they had a bye.

I'm with you my friend.. unfortunately we've been loosers this season.

I want to see whatever leads to maximum meltdown on this board. It’s now more amusing than watching football. So I guess that means a win.

I'd like to see a win. It's the Giants and we have a bit of a history with that team.

I can't believe that half of the posters who answered that poll are losers. Didn't they learn anything from Herm?

 

[1960Pats]

Picking: "I can't bring myself to say anything beyond I hope the Patriots win, but I wouldn't be mad if they lost."

And that's totally acceptable to be able to justify it if they lose. But hoping for the team to lose to get a better roll of the dice in the draft is certainly a loser's mentality. Plenty of teams have good to great seasons year after year even though they pick later in the draft. And we call those teams winners, because they are.

They haven't been losing on purpose. At least I hope not.

You think that losing will "advance the future of this team?" That's preposterous. What advances the future of any team in any sport is winning. Not to mention the dishonor of cheating to become a loser. That's a double edged sword right there.

Every time I see that horseshoe logo all I can think of is the multiple times they tanked and how little respect I have for them because of that. Haven't we had enough of the cheating label with the Pats?

 

[Uptown]

Lose.

Your right. Just have not executed and poor play at the QB position.

 

[Patriot Missile]

In 1993 the Patriots started 1-12 and then won their last 4 games. Fortunately for us Drew Bledsoe isn’t at qb.

 

[captain stone]

Lose, spectacularly.

 

[cmasspatsfan]

I'll be rooting for a win but won't be terribly disappointed if they lose. Not much more we can do this year, hate losing but in the end it may help us for the future.

I think this is a fan poll. Nobody is saying the team should try to lose because they won't. Anything anyone says on this forum one way or the other has zero effect on the outcome of the game. Almost everyone here has wanted the team to win all season and the opposite happened.

Now having said that, I find a lot of Bill's decisions both in the FO and on the field very suspect. It honestly looks like he's trying to tank, ngl. Only other option is he's completely lost it. Either way, He.Has.Got.To.Go!

 

[SEA_Pat]

I'm all for winning out. That would mean either Mac fixed himself or Zappe is better than we thought, and we could draft and target FAs at other positions of need. [I'm passing the bong now...]

Dang, I'll take a hit of whatever you're smoking, because that's some crazy stuff.

 

[FCB02062]

just win because whether it's #3 or #10 I have no faith that this franchise won't **** up the pick

 

[Water Boy]

I'm all for a win so BB can limp towards Shula's record in an excruciating fashion while Patriots Nation is held hostage to ****ty football for the next several years.

 

[Triumph]

LOL.. I'm trying to figure out how did we beat the bills? Or did the bills just not take us seriously and didn't think we could even pass our own 50 yard line? I'm not dumping on them. Just being a reality driven fan as you are.

The Bills were decimated with injuries on defense and could not apply pressure on Corky Mac.

Josh Allen has really regressed since Daboll left.

 

[Triumph]

Either outcome is a win.

A loss is that much closer to picking # 2.

A win buys Corky Mac a few more starts and bolsters his trade value.

Unless someone else starts and wins.
