Regarding the drafting, why is everyone so certain that all the big names we "could have had" wouldn't suck if put into a dysfunctional organization and/or not developed properly? How many Pro Bowlers each year are rookies? Not many. How do Pro Bowlers get to be Pro Bowlers? By being developed, put into schemes that maximize their talents, and shown the way by LEADERS. It's easy to see the players perform (or not) week in and week out, and pass judgment on their ability. It's not so easy to see the coaches and front office perform their jobs day in and day out. It would be interesting to be a fly on the wall in a coaches meetings, wouldn't it? I'm as disappointed with the team's performance as the next guy. But I also came into the season with very low expectations given all the changes involved with this rebuilding.

They make me wanna SHOUT! Kick your heels up and SHOUT! : (

Where's my clipboard?

Try reading through some other threads before posting.

Agreed. We stayed with a pretty good team all the way, and actually put some points on the board. Run D has a lot of work to do.

Someone strip the damn ball please.

Why didn't Nelson even make a play on the ball?

Anyone else surprised they didn't call Williams for diving at Brady's legs? That would have been about right.

Wow is that a bad 'do that Johnson is sporting!

I'll say it again, at least Fitz has some balls.

Swiss f'ing cheese.

As much as I don't respect Maybin, that was a crap call. Welker didn't move until Maybin was on his way back. It's not like he was trying to protect himself from Maybin.

Predict the final score....

Boy was that a bad pass.

Defense can't make a big play to save their lives. Has anyone even laid a hand on Brady yet? We're dropping seven guys in coverage and he still has time to find the open man.

That was too easy.

Win or lose, Fitz has balls. He's running for his life and is going to get killed. But he has balls.

Diehard, "Don't let the bastards grind you down."

Yeah, let's just keep trying Stanford quarterbacks until we get one right.

I noticed the same thing. He looked like someone had just run over his dog.

Put away the broad brush. You're painting sh1t stripes that are a little too wide.

Is it true about, well... how the women....uh, ya know...groom themselves....?

Best of luck to you and yours. This too shall pass.

A slower, mentally stable Young/Vick would be a decent QB.

I thought the exact same thing! Can you imagine the old man with grills on his teeth ripping it up in a video?
