Isn't it kind of unfriendly to call people "Christian nuts"? I mean, if you don't have any specific personal faith, would you like someone calling people with your worldview: "agnostic nuts" or whatever the case might be? Let's keep the comments on football - most of us agree that Tebow doesn't have the skill set to be a starting NFL QB, so having him as a backup is a luxury that takes a roster spot on the 53 that is probably needed elsewhere - WR, TE, etc.
Fo real, why is it socially acceptable now to call Christians nuts? Hate the double standard.
I'm pretty sure most Christians would consider non-Christians who genuinely believed in Santa Claus, the Tooth Fairy or the Easter Bunny to be nuts.
If I told you that I honestly believe the sun is pulled across the sky by some god's chariot and lightning bolts are thrown from the sky when another god gets angry, you would consider me nuts and rightfully so. Whether or not you would admit it on a public forum, I don't know.
Every believer out there is atheistic towards literally hundreds of gods - as there have been thousands over the course of humanity. And I'm sure the vast majority of them seem bizarre, crazy or ridiculous. Yet when non-believers go just one god further, it's some sort of double standard?
While I agree with everything that you said re:Edelman and I agree that he probably makes the team, we only kept 4 WRs last year, so keeping 6 this year may be a difficult thing to do (but necessary).
I defended him all last summer, but I haven't been able to do that as much this summer for obvious reasons. I didn't notice him stick out as much as you did last night.
They started the season with 4 + Slater (Welker, Edelman, Salas, Lloyd).
Right now, I'd project 5 + Slater (Amendola, Edelman, Dobson, Boyce, Thompkins).

You are correct. However, Salas was signed the day after the cutdown date and then waived 2 weeks later. By Sept 18, we were down to 3 + Slater.
A valid point has been made by many posters. Why do we need 5 wide receivers? Is it our norm to carry so many, especially given that we will carry 3 TE's, perhaps 4? We could start the season with 10 WR/TE on the 53 plus one or two on PUP (Gronk and Harrison). That is a lot!
