Man, am I looking forward to seeing them lose the division. Very decent chance it finally finally happens this year. Next year. And right now next year looks like a terrific year to have options, damn it. They'll need to use most of that money. And to get a QB.
Matt_In_NH Posted September 3, 2020 Posted September 3, 2020 You make a mistake, you move on. No sense holding onto dead weight cause you gave up a second. His willingness to ignore the cost incurred to obtain a player in determining what he will do now/in the future is part of what makes him successful. Most coaches/GM's will hold onto those players for too long

Do the names Scott Chandler and Donald Jones ring a bell? Also the Pats didn't improve either player. Gilmore was already an elite CB with the Bills and Hogan was a decent receiver who benefited from having Tom Brady throwing to him. Edited September 3, 2020 by PromoTheRobot 3

They gave us a 6th for Russ Bodine last year too. And then cut him before the season even started. Edited September 3, 2020 by DrDawkinstein 1

Mr. K Posted September 3, 2020 Posted September 3, 2020 Obligatory comment of having heard of aforementioned player. No reason to kick any tires.

Chandler does..jones doesn't And I do not remember Gilmore getting the accolades he is getting now. Hogan was pretty solid wide out needed a QB to throw to him.

Again, more media eyes on New England than Buffalo. 1

Not really. Tre White is constantly overlooked. Same with Poyer and Hyde. Remember the list of top safety pairs that left them off completely?

So if they don't win the division this year after 20 years, is suppose to be a problem... I wouldn't be surprised if their .500 this year...but as I said before.. The head of the snake is still attached so the patriots are going to be just fine either way. 2 minutes ago, PromoTheRobot said: Not really. Tre White is constantly overlooked.

I do not get what you are trying to say? and sorry my prediction isn't BOLD enough for you. But I tend to be little more logical than some on message boards. And honestly I don't care what their record is going to be against the bills or any team this year for the same reasons I have said before (20 years...) They have posted a great record against every team...so Ehh either way. Sorry its not the "fire" you were looking for. Edit: Actually the jets. I can not stand their fans..so even splitting w them would bug me....i really hope you guys beat them each time. Edited September 3, 2020 by Ghost_002!
