hes ELITE

it actually makes the trade back from 14 to 17 look like a reckless gamble in hindsight.. we're very, very luck that Washington drafted Forbes instead of Gonzalez

Dude it's not a sin the question some Patriots moves was the Team Doctor given a Day off when they signed Juju?? He looks like damaged goods if you haven't noticed where's the due diligence??

???

We all knew he was injured.

He played the same way last year.

BEFORE the Patriots signed him we said, who would you rather have, JuJu with his injuries or Meyers?

This was part of the discussion BEFORE we signed him. We knew it.

Heck, it was pointed out many times he signed for $3m the previous year. The reason why? The injury. He did not get hurt between the Super Bowl and the preseason. This is always who JuJu was. The difference is that he had a season with the best QB in football.

I'm just noting here that the evaluation is one the vast majority of fans agreed with. Not all.

 

[JarOfMayo51]

Yeah, that should be a penalty. Hands to the face.

Romo was likely just giggling at that... they were snickering like highschool girls every time the Jets did something egregious/obvious and got away with it. Its pinging my conspiracy theorist radar a bunch this year.. they shouldnt be trying to create a narrative or path for the game, they should be announcing and commenting on how the game unfolds

along time ago, outside of maybe Dan Foutz, i dont recall seeing announcers so often actively and blatantly root against our team on the air. Since they are the commentators that the vast majority of people listen to, everyone takes what they say as gospel and runs with it in terms of the narrative

they tried to excuse away so many bad calls or non calls in that game yesterday, it was disturbing

What!! You're telling me BellaDahmus knew it and still signed him?? BB should be stripped of his GM duties if that's the case.

You knew it too and you wanted him signed, and you even said that it didn't seem like a Belichick signing, but a B'Ob signing.

JuJu is the SAME guy who played last year in KC. Same guy. Same knee. No difference.

 

[Chevy]

Throwback:

I just watched these highlights the other day. Love BB in the locker room after the game ... "Guess I can't complain about no big plays any more."

Seriously I didn't know dude had knee issues he looks like toast.

Yet there's long discussions about his knee in the very thread, before we signed him, and everyone acknowledged it. This guy had 100 catches and 1000 yards and he's signing for $3m? Why? Because of his knee. So he goes out there and has a fine season catching balls from Mahomes. He doesn't injure the knee again. Nothing has changed with him between signing with the Chiefs and the guy we saw yesterday. It's the same guy.

 

[Chevy]

Man, I have to say it brought tears to my eyes to see Slater lead the "aww yeah" in the locker room.
It's been way too few of those celebrations the last few years. And Slate won't be leading them much longer.
I wonder who's going to take over after he's gone - next year?

Love a guy who is a receiver, gets the nod as a teams ace, and just owns it. All effort, no ego. He's alongside Troy when it comes to the definition of The Patriot Way.

Juju Smith Schuster talking about his Illegal blindside penalty:

“I was just trying to make a play to help my boys,” Smith-Schuster told Perry. “I wasn’t thinking. I keep forgetting there’s a new rule. … It’s funny, I was watching Hines Ward, his blocking videos, before the game today. I saw that, and I saw an opportunity, and I took advantage of it. Yeah, it wasn’t smart by me to do that. Different era.”

I really want to like JJSS but he's making it dammed difficult.

Andy Reid is 65 years old, so like 5-6 years younger than Belichick but his health is a big question mark

if he can coach as long as BB, he could potentially challenge his win record because he's going to have Mahomes the rest of his career

Explain that again, but with those nuggies...
