Real McClappy Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 Flip the teams around 180*. If the Pats were run like the Bills since Terry took over would you be laughing?
CEN-CAL17 Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 Dont they understand it could be bad news for them. Whaley was nothing special, more than likely our franchise just got better. Oh and if Brady is gonna "play for 6-7 more years"... why wouldn't they trade Garopolo??? Unless he just wants to be Tom Brady's backup for 10 years and pass his prime... cause they know Brady is done soon. It could. It could be his final year this year.
12Kachy Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 They won't be good forever. Even if Brady stays another 5 years, that 6th year will be a dozy. The Pats got lucky with Brady and Bill. Now they can pretty much sign anyone because of who they are. But someday they will return to the Pats of the 80s and 90s. Hopefully they hire Bill Buckner as a coach.
Buffaloed in Pa Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 Let them laugh . Their day is coming. Nothing lasts forever.
JerseyBills Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 I want to beat me up with Brady and Bill on the team. I got a gut feeling McD can be the guy to right the ship. For example, Micah Hyde and our # 1 pick are both versatile, heady players, built to stop the quick passing attack of NE. No more 5-10 free yards. I feel those 2 specifically were hand picked with beating NE in mind. And can't wait to see Zay and Sammy light up Gilmore as he's looking around with his hands in the air as they enter the end zone. F the Cheats and their weak fan base
teef Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 I've just punched a hole in some drywall. I feel that is the appropriate response.
John Gianelli Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 "ineptitude at its finest" Arrogant Patriots fans! If it were a Bills fan writing that, you can be sure it would have said "ineptitude at it's finest".
timtebow15 Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 If I were a Pats fan I would not be laughing...one of these days the Bills will stumble on a real GM. We may have already stumbled on a real coach. They should have been hoping Whaley would stay in place forever.
Iron Maiden Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 Reverse the positions, we'd be laughing at the Bills too....hell, we love making fun of the Jets.......all that will stop when we start beating them....3-26 in the last 29 games vs Brady.....it's surprising they don't make more fun of our franchise......
Strethor Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 (edited) I would be laughing too, but sadly I root for this team so I have to re-route and pretend that this level of unproffesionalism and dysfunction is actually a good thing and that the Pegulas know what they are doing (they dont). However I do have faith in McDermott to get the job done so all is not lost Edited May 1, 2017 by Strethor
Success Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 Pats fans bug me, but that's part of being king of the hill. Personally, it's not my thing. When the Bills were on top, I didn't give a thought to teams on the bottom. Though if the Pats get there again, I'll probably find some joy in it.
MarkyMannn Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 "ineptitude at its finest" How would you define it? With the Bills and Sabres combined
dubs Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 "Bills fans laugh at other Bills fans about those other Bills fans going on Pats fans websites to see if Pats fans are laughing at Bills fans."

I've never seen such loathsome group of people. You've already cheated to win the superbowls. At least try and have some class. But no, their true nature shows despite all the ill-gotten wealth. Perhaps it's their guilty sub-conscious. They are trying to put others down so that they can feel better about themselves. But they kinda do have a point, right? When's the last time an all but announced lame duck GM and entire scouting staff was left in place to actually conduct the draft? Only in Billsland. And would I gloat over Patriots misfortunes (if and when they have them?) Umm, in a second ...
Dorkington Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 Every team (and their fanbases) in the league should be laughing at us for literally everything we do, until we make the playoffs. Not sure why anyone would be offended.

You can't cut staff before the draft when they have knowledge of your draft board and could sell/use that knowledge with other teams! You have to keep them on the payroll. Then, if they betray the organization they'll never find work again. That's why they are left in place to see the draft through.
dgrochester55 Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 (edited) It easy to be a fan of the team that the NFL has every rule and script set to favor. How many of these pats fans liked the team in 2000? I guarantee that most of the current "fans" of the Patriots are either Millennials with no loyalty, or if they are old enough to know better liked the Cowboys in the 90's and the 49ers in the 80's.

Hey, I'll admit I could be wrong here, but I can't recall this year's Bills chronology happening before: - Coach Fired; GM retained - Draft/Free Agency period complete - GM fired

In fact, there's actually some informed and intelligent commentary along with the usual fan nonsense you see everywhere. The AFCE is a hard place for GMs and coaches. New England helps make them all look bad.
