Patriots Player Departure Joe Cardona released

[Dec54]

Never seen so many people broken up about a long snapper.

I was thinking that too

I've seen games LOST because of a bad snap brother, I don't subscribe to this.

The point is: NO OTHER TEAM but our own dear sweet Patsies drafts Long Snapper-heads. There were real football players still available who might've helped us.

A couple of thoughts:

I just don't get the talk about Cardonna being cut as a culture thing to get away from anything related to the BB era. That's ridiculous. Mike and Josh THEMSELVES are products of the BB era and long term succuss of the dynasty. They'd have to fire themselves if they really want to cut ties with anything BB.

No my guess it was a calculated move to add a younger and possibly more athletic LS at a cheaper price. Maybe they saw a decline last season.

2. I was surprised to see him sign with the Dophins. I thought he'd ride into the sunset of a continued career in the Navy. Makes me wonder how he will carry on that career now that he's in South Florida. IIRC, didn't he work at a school in RI?

BTW- The fact Miami signed him, doesn't mean he'll be their LS. I image he'll be in a competition with last season's incumbent for the job. I don't recall there being any complaints about the Phins LS last season.

Kind of an interesting twist on the Cardona cut. God knows we need some new fodder for discussion here to get us through to TC

Haven’t the Phins cut their long snapper from last year already?
