Nantz & Romo Suck.

 

[Steve102]

So what if he does? I say let 'em; because I'll be adding this line after Every post from now on:

#FireTheGroceryShopperNOW

He's talking about Zappe, not Bill.

 

[captain stone]

Zappe is not the answer. Did you see his throws? He had more opportunity to throw to open deep routes than Mac did (3), and he sailed every one horribly wide. I'd honestly rather have Malik at QB. Or test out Grier over Zappe - who was supposed to only be on the PS.
Also, if they can kick T. Brown in the pants and get him to try, and stop playing OL musical chairs, and scheme better runs, then Mac could have a chance to do what we saw at stretches in the first 2 games.

Which was...?

Billy thought Wrong... Again.

 

[captain stone]

Of course it is; nothing earth-shattering there, Danny. What you should've said is that this is the Worst NEP roster in THIRTY years.

 

[captain stone]

Not that shocking, Zack, when you have a Garbage GM, a Garbage QB, a Garbage OL & Garbage WRs.

Miami was one of the worst games I ever saw a QB play. Eons of time in the pocket, the guy was afraid of his own shadow.

I guess that Bill is giving Mac one more week as a starter. Does it matter?

 

[captain stone]

Teams now know that Corky's a spoiled, gutless, chicken-**** punk-ass ***** and that even the appearance of pressure is enough for her to soil herself.

I would be shocked if Bill said anything other than he supports his starter. He never has done otherwise to my knowledge.

This isn't aimed at you, but in reading references on this board to local media's take on Bill's utterances, I'm always surprised the way people take things. I'm not in Boston so I can't listen to local media much, but when I dial in 98.5 on Spotify for Toucher and Rich, I turn it off in under a minute.

It just seems to me there's a lot of anger (even when they were winning) at Belichick's press conferences which is now a point of contention for the fanbase as well. Yet, a Patriot fan from further away, I seem totally outside of what is going on with this aspect. It just doesn't matter to me at all.

Just had a thought.
The way BB has treated Mac since '21 - I wonder if RKK forced him to pick Mac in the 1st round?
RKK wanted to start over, pick a Bama kid, with Saban roots, to re-energize the fan base... but BB didn't want to, and so he's been setting him up to fail? I know it sounds crazy, but BB is a VERY stubborn man with strong grudges. Otherwise, the answer is that BB is inept and has forgotten how to field an NFL team.

Sabotage his own self because he's mad at RKK? Isn't that cutting off your nose to spite your face?

 

[JarOfMayo51]

Anyone who has half a brain understands that there will be growing pains with a rookie kicker vs a veteran pro like Folk

That was understood when the decision was made, because Ryland can be our kicker for the next 15 years and Folk might have been our kicker for maybe the next 2-3 years

 

[mike_usagisan]

Here's a recommendation, which I'm not sure why I need to explain. Everyone who hates Mac and Bill, stop yelling and screaming for him to put Zappe in or for Kraft to fire Bill now. You want the team to lose out the rest of the season to get the top pick at the best QB in the draft and most likely to get Bill fired. You want a new GM and coach with tons of cap and the highest pick in the draft to put together the best team for next year. Stop getting mad that it's not getting better and hope that we don't get better. This is the way to get elite talent. This is how you get what you've wanted for many many seasons.

[Toofy]

Like I said yesterday, start a different QB next game... or BB needs to be fired.

I thought this program was built upon accountability and not making excuses?

The problem?

When wozzy the most optimistic patsfan asks for change and possibly firing Bill , we are in deep **** as a fandom...
