I wonder what the mindset of the FO and coaches are?

Would that he the same Belicheck whose team has not won a playoff game since 2007 and has been highly criticized for decimating the defense and trading guys like for picks and not replacing them.

So you don't think Wharton is a competent guard?? And what about drafting 2 third round DTs this year. Do you really expect they are going to just dominate out of the blocks.

We are a rebuilding team and that means we have to bring along young guys and make them better with good coaching and game experience. In the meantime we bring in some vets who are reasonable and see what happens. No matter who we brought in at DT or OG, it isn't going to get us to the playoffs. This is going to take time, everyone unwilling to wait needs to root for a different team for a year or two until we become a contender.

I am not a Belicheck homer but look at their record compared to ours.Trouble is you need 2 gaurds and reserves that can come into play.My point is we hold guys like Wharton who we drafted to differant standards versus free agents.We dont have a guy that would be on anyones roster at rguard.You are defending the philosphy of a FO that brought one win last year and we will be lucky to have 4 this year.My observations has nothing to do with me being a fan.I am also a retired combat veteran and critisize actions of our goverment.Does that make me a commie?

Wharton is a good guard in my opinion. Is he probowl caliber? No.. But how many guys that are available right now are probowl caliber. Do you think that guys are just lined up wanting to play for us right now?? We had 2 wins last year not 1. That is my point. I don't have any problem with people taking shots at the front office, I have done so quite often recently. I just disagree with the logic you are using to make your points and backup your opinions.

I can only hope their mindset is to go 19-0.

I hope their mindset is to stop playing pre-season games. We've had 23 in a row now.

they're intentionally sucking so they can trick everyone

jedi mind tricks is where its at

You are correct. I too have Jedi powers, but lack the training I need to perfect them. So far, my powers are limited to doors at the grocery store and some hand dryers in restrooms.

I'm sure they are all stoked.

Its going to take a while drafting to correct the poo that John Fox did. He traded away our future more then once on players that did not live up to there billing. Also look at Hogan and why we drafted him, we knew he was not going to be ready this year but were looking at the bigger picture next year.
