    Talk about gutting a team - nearly as bad as Gruden in Oakland.

    Russell Wilson must be wondering what is happening to his career.

    Broncos play the Seahawks this week - couldn't have come at a better time.

    No I can but I choose not to because its fun when you flip flop with your obsession with the Patriots. The fact you are even debating this shows your obsession remains strong. You talk more about the Pats this time of year than Pats fans do. Its hilarious.

    Like I said - no restraint.

    If I have no restraint then this is the Pot calling the Kettle Black really. You could ignore me but guess what you wont because you can't help yourself.

    Besides you ignored the facts and glossed over the part where you were wrong. Nothing new there.
    You Said - And I would agree - having Brady and having a winning team is an enticement for FAs (again this contracdicts mmagic who argued that it is harder to put together a team when you keep winning championships.

    He said Draft not FA
    What Munster actually said - It's also a lot more difficult to draft and put a team together when you make it to 12 AFC Championship games

    Which is true when you constantly sit in the last picks in the draft harder to find that quality that you may need.

    You made an argument out of something someone never said. But hey well done.

    We might need a franchise QB in Dallas next year... could maybe make a deal with Seattle again... ;)

    There's no doubt he's great, and Dallas would be a great landing spot for him. Cowboys O-Line, Zeke in the backfield & a mobile QB swinging it. All you'll need is a standout WR in the draft & oofff now there's a standout offense.

    As you quoted yourself - he said 'draft AND put a team together' - now are you suggesting that you can put a team together just through the draft or is the AND relevant here.

    That may not have been what mmagic intended - but that is what he said.

    This, this, a hundred times this.

    Every time, the same old game, JRG pops up to comment on something or other and a few Pats fans go for him. I have no idea of he deserves it or not, the origins of the feud are buried in time, but it's very tedious.

    Ah, I see you are doing this again.
    You actually asked this before, and you were informed that someone was banned from the Pats thread for a reason. This one stared when someone stated that others were living in cloud-cuckoo land, for something they didn't even say.
    But you want to include all Pats fans when it's a two person debate? Maybe focus on that for a bit.

    For starters, you've ignored the fact that it's not just me who perceives a Pats fans v JRG issue. I was responding to another poster who referred to it.

    But it is amusing to see Pats fans who've had a go at JRG denying its (largely, there may be exceptions) Pats fans v JRG issue.

    Either way, it's tedious.

    Guys lets have a stop to the back and forth bickering. It's getting tiresome for everyone. If you can't ignore one another then please take it to PM.

    Oh and for what its wroth the Bronocs jokes that some have complained about look at the amount of like on some of them. To blame a "Few Pats Fans" is just nonsense at best also. Banter when people make bold or weird claims has been around a long time. Are we now going to go all PC and push the banter out also.

    I love Broncos jokes - I have plenty about McDisaster (but won't post them for obvious reasons) - but I am looking to replenish my stash about goofy if you have any.

    Think starting Peterman is the best option by the Bills.

    I actually rate him higher than others, but he'll never be able to put that disaster behind him. Unfortunately for him that O-Line this year is butter so I don't expect him to light it up.

    Fortunately for Bills fans Josh Allen wont be getting smashed apart beginning the season.

    Best way I saw it described was someone said they should just go ahead and award the Purple Heart to whichever QB won that battle to start!

    I see the usual sites have their power rankings up before the season begins.
    Here's what they predicted at the start of last season for the eventual NFC playoff teams:

    Falcons: 3
    Saints: 18
    Eagles: 19
    Vikings: 20
    Panthers: 23
    Rams: 29

    Just proves the utter pointlessness of these rankings. Why bother.

    I mean isn't that part of the fun of football that it can be so unpredictable
