Plus, I can't see Robert Kraft signing off on such a deal.

If you're gonna trade one of them, I'd think bill would rather trade the older one.

But, it could be that they're just making Jimmy look better than he is.

I agree. It seems that once Andy gets a lead, he starts going very vanilla because he's afraid to "show" something that they've been practicing and holding back for the right time.

Sometimes, it's frustrating but it's also completely understandable.

This. Up by two scores at the end of the third, I knew that was going to be about it for the offense.

It's not like's competing against a modern day Steve Young, as Joe Montana was in 1993, nor has he been severely injured and dealing with back problems, shoulder problems, etc.

Additionally, unlike Montana or Peyton Manning, Brady's shown no signs of slowing down, even at age 39.

Personally, there's no way I'm trading a 4 time Super Bowl winning QB that's still playing lights out for a guy that looked really good for 6 quarters.

Can you imagine what this thread would look like if they were trying to air it out up by 14 in the 4th quarter & gave up a pick 6 or a sack/fumble for a TD.

Among coaches with 50 wins Andy Reid has the 24th best winning percentage all time. If that's mediocre then I'll take mediocre all day.

Really?

How does one open the Secret Playbook? Rub two short ends together while reciting an incantation?

Reid has had TWO losing seasons in an 18 year career.

You people act like a head coach's job is the same as an OC. It isn't; it's nothing close, in fact. The head coach is a chief administrator. He's the guy that lays out camp, sets clubhouse rules, establishes a culture and an atmosphere.

And you want to fire him for a guy that had a hard on for Matt ****ing Cassel because you don't like the number of screens he runs.

Look, the playcalling bugs the shit out of me as well but a head coach is a package deal; you take the good with the bad and ask if the whole package makes for an effective head coach.

By every single available objective metric, Andy Reid is no worse than a good head football coach. His players love playing for him and they want to be here. He wins games, despite your assurances that you'd have done it differently.

**** me, we're not even 5 years removed from the last Patriots Tree abortion and you people are just clamoring for another round of it as though you wouldn't turn on that visor wearing ass clown as well.

Idiots, the whole ****ing lot of you.

I don't know who the answer is, but I am almost certain we ain't winning a SB with Reid, so what is the ****ing point?
