you guys obviously don't have a clue that this year is new, compared to the way preseasons have went before.

there's only 1 cut, rather than 2 cuts which is why the only people playing in these 4th preseason games are bottom feeders/guys who wont even make the roster.. which is what I said from the very start.. but I see simple logic and reading comprehension is lacked in these here Patriots threads.


I knew that. 90 or whatever it is to 53 in one cut... Man you really like to put words in people's mouths.

If you could do simple math you would know that several people on the field tonight will make the team... god you're clueless

You do. If we had less preseason games (and keep the practices the same), there would be less injuries, it's not rocket science. Sure we have a lot of scrubs in right now but there's quite a few guys who are either locks for the team/p-squad/on the bubble.

Not sure why you are even here to be honest as you're not a pats' (or giants) fan... do you see me going into the jags thread and talking about how shitty they are? No.


They have already dumb'd down practices to nothing, yet injuries still happen.

You want to take away more preseason games, but want to keep these pee wee level practices the same? How is anybody exactly going to evaluate anybody?

They're already limiting practices...

They're already limiting the amount you can practice tackling, in a sport that relies heavily on tackling..

Now you want even less, real time game action?.. Even though its preseason and doesn't mean anything on the record books. These games mean a lot in the big picture of things.

There's going to be 37 players cut from every team, come cut down time. How can you honestly say they should shorten the preseason even more, when actual games are really the only real way you can evaluate players..

and you lack the most simple of reading comprehension... I've clearly said bottom feeders/guys who wont make the roster..

you only highlight the part where I said "wont make the roster", and then you tried to make some dumb statement off of that alone.

Negative. Also, bandwagoners is def not the right word -- and I'm sure you know that :rolleyes:
I discuss my Celtics without a problem in the NBA forum
Patriots talk, however :bonk:




Could be. I saw he won the community service award, so it would be wrong to cut him right after that
But his play on the field says cut all over him
His IQ is probably what is keeping him around


yea you're right bandwagons isn't the word... it's "blind homers" which is what I was actually thinking of ;)

Um, i'm pretty sure i'm far from the only person calling for less preseason games. So what? Weeks 1-2 may be slightly sloppier football. Teams will still figure it out.

Pretty sure the pats' roster is already in the high 80s... teams can still cut players before the final cut to 53 (correct me if i'm wrong but don't think so)...

See why I only post in the Patriots thread?
Even then we have to deal with this :wallbash:

So by your logic, you just called stephen gostkowski a "bottom feeder/guy who won't make the roster", either that, or you're going to tell me kickers can't get injured because there's no contact?

Just stop dude... find a hobby.

No big deal dude! He's just a bottom dweller who was likely going to be returning a lot of punts / kick offs
But that's not important!
