Welp, Dion took it personal.

[Bourne Again Christian]

Maybe if he averaged even 3 yards per carry or had more than 11 receiving yards he could talk like they won because of him

If he didnt become invisible against the eagles he might of been here

 

[Zarozzor]

**** him. Where was he in the Falcons super bowl? Oh that’s right

 

[Silver Blue&Red]

That’s a shame.

Here we go with the cheap crap....Um, who's record is better.?

See ya Dion. Moroney would have had a great game against us today.

There's only so much dough to go around.

Screw him and his bitter chip on his shoulders

 

[fnordcircle]

To be fair, they did **** up by not re-signing him for what he got. He really isn't making that much for an actual offensive weapon (unlike Burkhead who we decided was worth 3M/year).

If Hill doesn't get Develin-ed we aren't in this situation. White, Hill, Burkhead, Michel had made our RB stable a strength, we just got hit with a lot of injuries. And we were playing without a top 10 player in the league (at one point anyways) in Gronk, dealing with tons of problems on the OL, etc.

Making this game all because we didn't match Dions offer is the sort of specious reasoning I'd expect from the GDT not a player who was bagging groceries before the Pats signed him and gave him an extension.

 

[BradyFTW!]

'Going cheap' is what got Dion his shot here in the first place. He has 'going cheap' to thank for his career, basically.

 

[anditsgood]

Thanks Dion for your service when you were here, I appreciate it and still love ya, even if Pats did go cheap, and have your blue light replacement on the roster with White , even if you were here, it would have not made a difference , it takes 53 to win a game, That pats played pathetically and you won your Early November superbowl, Enjoy it , This aint baseball and there is a salary cap, and In Belichick we trust, its been a successful run, Enjoy your money, while enjoy the once in millennial run. I know history will remember those with the rings and not the players bank accounts Act like you been there before, because you had .

Dion's attitude has been surprisingly poor throughout his tenure with the Titans, I'll admit that.

 

[Kontradiction]

For what they got, I would have much rather had him than Burkhead.

 

[holyredeemer]

Meh. Sour grapes and all that. The guy is an undersized player in a game that favors freakishly gigantic men. All his life I’m sure he has been told he’s too small, too brittle etc. Putting that “it’s me against the world” chip on his shoulder and carrying it around for years is probably the reason why he has persevered for so long. Gotta expect this type of attitude from a guy like that.

I don’t like it, but I understand it.

 

[pats_premi]

What an idiot, wasn’t he out of football when Patriots signed him? No respect for the people who got him a big contract.

 

[ZoisKing]

His comment is particularly stupid because frugal cap management is what has separated the Patriots, Steelers and Packers from the rest and allowed them to remain competitive consistently over the last 2 decades.

Its sad really. None of those Titans players are missed, except in spirit. Dions being a baby. Michel and White are putting up everything and more than he ever did. Those dudes arent cheap talent.

 

[stcjones]

That’s a shame.

Can’t blame him in the least....He was a HUGE part of our offense for several seasons and is obviously a devestating player to stop....and BB kicked him to the curb....always liked Dion and can’t argue that he’s chafed that BB let him go

 

[Gronkowski123]

Dink

 

[primetime]

They paid Burkhead, Develin, and spent a 1st round pick (probably the most valuable asset in football) on a running back, and Lewis is better than all three, at least to this point. He's not wrong to feel slighted, and the contract he received is hardly an unreasonable one for a player of his caliber who averaged 5 yards per carry last season.

Sometimes they don't pay guys and they probably should have. Usually they don't pay guys and it turns out to be the right decision. I think Lewis is the former. That's fine. He got the better of us today, so he earned his right to gloat.

 

[Brewskies]

Sorry, no comment, not necessary.

 

[Wheelman]

The tweet responding to that tweet is spot on. If it wasn't for the Patriots, he wouldn't even have a career.

I should say I still love Dion though. But he needs to think that one thru. But I get it, you want to get paid.

 

[PatsFan2]

Dion Lewis > Rex Brittlehead nuff said.

 

[IcyPatriot]

Dion only got me 8.8 on Draft Kings ... that kind of sucks Dion.

 

[PatsFan2]

To be fair, they did **** up by not re-signing him for what he got. He really isn't making that much for an actual offensive weapon (unlike Burkhead who we decided was worth 3M/year).

That I hope they move on from Rex.

 

[PATSYLICIOUS]

Wow, thats pretty crappy, especially towards the coach/team who resurrected his career. Screw you Dion, hope you never see the playoffs again.
