They aren’t going to the playoffs, so WTF is the point? Would you rather them have more players that are on their draft board available to them or less?
By age, players acquired as rookies in blue...
They haven't drafted a kicker of note since Gostowski in 2006, yet had good WR play and kicking since forever.
You call 4 Super Bowl appearances, 3 super bowl wins over the last five years "ineptitude." Laughable, I'd take that kind of ineptitude on the regular, so would the majority of fans of any other team.
You are wasting your time with these miserable folks.
You’re really not grasping this concept. No one is criticizing Bill’s coaching over this stretch. He put together good teams and still had an elite to close to elite QB for those Super Bowls. When Brady started to need more help after Gronk retired, he had a turnstile at LT for half the season, and the running game struggled Bill hadn’t restocked the cupboard.
So you basically posted the Patriots draft picks that are on the team. By this logic every team in the league has a talented core of young players.
I posted the entire roster with the players acquired as rookies in blue to highlight how young this roster is.
Yep, and last night's "victory" did us absolutely no feckin good whatsoever, regardless of what the cheerleaders might tell us...
Your misery with this team is duly noted.
Yes I know I should be a cheerleader and be happy with a team that seemingly has no direction. Shoved an icon out the door with no plan QB, routinely have high draft picks as healthy scratches, a bunch of dead cap space, the few good players on the team are aging, and practice squad players playing over guys we really should be getting a look at. This is a rebuilding year, I am aware, so then why won't Bill let young picks play? Who cares if we lose to the Jets if we get to see Uche make a play or two? Who cares if he get torched by some crappy QB's if we find out that Duggar can fill that safety/LB hybrid Bill has been looking for? The outcome of the games doesn't really matter at this point. What matters is seeing what we have for the future. Seeing if Winovich can be an every down player and a legitimate pass rusher, seeing if Harris can be the lead back, see if either of the tight ends can play. This is what we should be doing. Bill needs to decide if we want to scrap out a win or two more and not make the playoffs or lose a couple games because Duggar let a guy run by him, or Uche got swallowed up in the running game, or one of the tight ends misses a block and still not make the playoffs.
So it all comes back to Brady. Ok. Now I get it.
Moving on from a good QB with no plan? Yeah now you should.
I just see no pleasure from you as it pertains to this team. Zero. Only anger and frustration.
When I’m talking about this team on here yes I’m annoyed and frustrated with the state of things but I don’t let the outcome of any of these games affect me in real life. I have a wife, a beautiful baby boy, a job, a house, and an all around happy life. I’d love for this team to still be chugging along but honestly I wasn’t expecting much out of them this year aside from preparing for the future. Why I’m frustrated is because we don’t really seem to be seeing what we have in place already to go forward with. So yes I’ll probably continue *****ing on here until we start to at least find a direction but there isn’t anyone I know in real life who as into the Patriots as I am so I get my fix here.
