8000 Butterfingers Given to Boston

On Tuesday, 900 pounds of Butterfingers (8,000 bars) were delivered to Copley Square in Boston -- no doubt mocking Wes Welker's critical drop late in the fourth quarter of Super Bowl XLVI.

He'd be a good Panther. Haters got to blame somebody.

I like that people are defining "the fall" as making the playoffs 3 years in a row and getting to the super bowl in one of them. Once they start actually missing the playoffs, we can talk about them really falling. Yeah sure, they were one and done the last two years before that, but it wasn't as if they were a mediocre team those years that barely managed to make it anywhere at all (like the Broncos this year :P)

let's be real here... the patriots past SB wins were all mostly close games, too. winning in the playoffs is tough. they are far from done, and a super bowl loss doesn't tell us much about the immediate future of that team.

as KG pointed out, the Patriots have a number of high picks. They've got a few more years left in them...

    • I do think the rating is fair given how this unit hasn’t proven it with production. I understand you have to rank off production, not potential. However, our unit is also in a position to make this rating look foolish a year from now. We have 4 guys in the WR/TE room who all could legitimately take the next step this year, and catapult our rank. A guy under a lot of people’s radar after we took Tet, Jalen Coker. Mark my words, he will become the star of this room, and be the heir to Thielen.
    • Exactly. You’d think 2-7 wins a year (in a 17 game season no less) since 2017 is going to keep us bottom tier. Every year we say the same poo like we haven’t been a bad team the past 7 years. Until we prove we aren’t a bottom dweller, that’s where we’ll stay ranked. God forbid we have OL injuries like 2016.
    • What I love and hate about this team is it’s more filled with potential breakout players than ever before. JT, XL, Coker, Smith-Wade, Ikem, Trevin… and even Bryce are all guys I could legitimately see taking the next step. But the problem with having so many of those guys is that team success somewhat relies on them taking that step, and some are bound not to. That being said, I’m cautiously optimistic given our softer schedule, the way the offense clicked late last year, and the direction we finally have at GM, coach, and QB. Could see us as a sneaky playoff team.
