Let's go get REVIS!!!!!!

Our DTs are rotational players now and actually only saw more time on the field cause CW was out most of the year.

I dont bitch about taking olineman early....i bitch about FINALLY taking them and then chosing not to play them all year. Get your facts straight.

Neither LKP or yourself have provable factual evidence as you claim. My argument is the one providing the factual evidence....that our draft picks over the last 3 years have produced very little and we suck. Both arguments are very easy to proove. 0-6, worst in the division on offense, worst in the division on defense, 4 wins all year. None of it is opinion. Its all backed by numbers. LKPs idea of provable factual data is "broyles will be good someday." or a personal favorite is still when he said we SHOULD HAVE been 9-3 to start 2012'. provable BWAHAhahahaha, factual LMAO....my ass.

You bitch about EVERYTHING, bro. It's real fn tiresome.
 
More hyperbole that's already been debunked by posters (mainly LKP) who have provided actual, provable conclusions rather than just being a results oriented sandy vag. Also I will once again post this for you. This is scientific data (something provable) over a relatively large sample (meaning it holds actual water) and not just a random opinion (something unprovable which holds zero water). Please note that it shows anything past the 4th round is basically just throwing darts and anytime you can move a 4th or later for a person who you know can make an impact, you immediately pull the trigger based on provable data (like Mayhew has done with Houston, Williams, LoJack, Sims, Scheffler, Thomas, Hill, etc.)

Slow down, read the argument that's before you, form an actual rebuttal with actual points that need to be argued against rather than a bunch of talking and hand waving. Your words have next to zero content. The signal to noise ratio with you is fucking ridiculous.

And there she is!!!!!!!!!!
 
lol. Wtf are you yammering about? You think he acted like that at the combine and during his team interviews? Get your fn head out of your ass, man.

What I am saying is any compenent organization should have been able to figure out how fucking stupid this guy was during the interview process.

I agree 100% with this...someone sure fucked up when they did the digging around on this mental case.

and you go to every thread and bitch about me bitching....every single one. atleast im talking about an opinion on football....youre just swinging from my nuts. Get the fuck off.

Swinging from your nuts? Buddy, you're a fn joke. All i see is your negativity and its mentally draining. I barely respond to your incessive ramblings about how shit the whole organization is from top to bottom because in reality, its not as bad as you represent it. You complain about EVERY move they make no matter what. Why is that?

They bring in this Xanders guy to HELP Mayhew (a guy you dedpise) but you still whine like a fn chick. Thats not talking football, you retard. Saying you're right and they're wrong is not talking football. Get your fn facts straight, you fn clown.

It seems they need new GM's, all around. Team after team because over the years its seems there are players that go mental, all the time, each season. Varying degrees of course. And this is of course the ones who pretend to be choir boys at the interview, yet once drafted get DUI's, drunken brawls, charged with a crime etc. This is much deeper then Mayhew..

Once they make dumb decisions they make dumber decisions that make the situation even worse. Ever since hes punched delmas during practice hes cared for nothing but himself and the rest of the team hasnt cared much for him. We keep giving him more chances but at this point nobody really wants him there. Its a no win situation....
 
I'm not sure we gave him more chances. Lots of NFL'ers punch teammates in practice. One he did his metal fuck up "lining up wrong in purpose" he didn't play any more and I suspect in a few days he will be release.

I know you hate the management and all but did you expect him to get let go after the punch? So what chances are they actually giving him?

no....but if you thought he would need to be traded at some point cause hes a mental midget ....he would have had more value back then. Now we get nothing.

What would we have got back then that we can't get now? Absolutely nothing.

mmm not to sure about that. Alot of people on here seemed to think he had a lot of value. Im sure some dumb team like the jags or something would. I bet the Jags would have taken a thomas for titus swap saving us a 4th round pick. Anything is more than we'll get now.

Why? Easy....cause none of them work.

If they brought in Xanders to eventually replace Mayhew....hey...im all for it.

If Mayhew brought in Xanders to sit around and collaborate with shack who everyone already knows sucks....and mayhew....who alot of people think sucks. Well to me that just means things are going to get more cloudy. When the results of the conversation arent going in the right direction....and you just add more to the crap that is already there....then it typically just adds more crap. Like this thread for instance! lol.

Get rid of mayhew and shack and bring in Xanders and my tune is completely different. I dont know if that would be the right or wrong move....but atleast theyre trying to do something! The way they did what they did....im not sure what the hell they are trying to accomplish. Shack has failed miserably, but you keep him on staff. Mayhew has been a dissappointment in FA and the draft....keep him. Then bring in this other guy who does basically the same job as shack and mayhew and keep everyone else. I dont really get it....

You dont get it? So what? They're trying out some new things. Be fn happy about it. Instead, you bash them as usual. Im tired of arguing about it to tell you the truth...lol.

As for Mayhew not hitting on every draft and no FAs being any good? Bullshit on that. Hes missed on some and hit on a few others. You expect HOF type results from everything Mayhew does. Newsflash - it doesnt work like that. Hes done 500x the job Millen has done and thats a fact. Argue it though like i know you'll do.....

So could the Boggle playing chicken I saw last night on channel 87. Not exactly the greatest measuring stick.

Measuring stick? Buddy, it's all we got.

Like it or not, he's done a better job by a landslide. Who cares how much of a fn buffoon Millen was?

If someone told me mayhew took the last 2 years off I wouldn't be completely shocked. I gave him credit when he found gems like Houston and Sims via trade....but that was forever ago! When your FA claims to fame are KVB, Nate Burleson and Tulloch over your entire tenure....welp....call me whatever the fuck you want but I just think that's downright sad. Compile that with poor draft after poor draft when most years youre picking in the top half of the draft....its really not acceptable in my eyes. You guys can defend him all you want...and I give you a world of credit to carry the argument on this long when the FACTS are so clear....he doesn't draft well....he doesn't really do very well in FA....and our team is a 4 win team with 0 wins in the division. People have been fired for much much less.

Be happy about it you say? Things change every year...ill be happy when they turn into positive results. In order to do that you have to be competitive within your own division. I cant imagine how many changes need to happen to make me feel positive about facing gb min and chi twice each next year. We'll see how the offseason goes but there needs to be soooo many signings on the defense its slightly ridiculous. If Xander/mayhew/shack can get it done....more power to them.

Who does well in FA? Not too many teams do by the way. When a player is great, they usually tend to stay with the team that drafted him. Seriously, name me some teams that hit on FA's. there's maybe a couple but noine that truly stick out besides Moss a few years back with NE.

I'm not here saying Mayhew is a genius because he isn't, but you rip on the guy too much. He has turned this team around (somewhat) when the keys were handed to him. He inherited a fn trainwreck that Millen destroyed. He has hit on some FAs and draft picks, but has also failed. NOBODY is perfect in the NFL. Getting players like Tulloch, KVB, Houston and Burleson were big time assets and NEEDS on this football team. Not world beaters but solid football players who can make your team better and at the time they did make us better. Bottomline, superstars don't usually jump ship and go to another team.

Injuries fn destroyed this team. Players need to stay healthy to succeed. The blame is not all on Mayhew.

And i'm sorry about the namecalling. You get me so fn fired up at times. ;)

Who should we draft this year Boggle playing chicken?

Chicken(pecking Boggle letters): D-E

Mayhew: Dee Milner? Of Course!

Mayhew: Any free agent signings?

Chicken: A-J

Mayhew: AJ Hawk? He'd be a great addition! Wow this guy knows his stuff, maybe she can branch out and help with the offense.

Mayhew: we had some redzone troubles last year, who should we throw the ball to?

Well you get the point.

not a whole lot you can do in FA when you are in salary cap hell.....biggest mistake Mayhew made was not finding a taker for Cliff Avril then beoing handcuffed into using the tag on him and losing 10+ million in $$$$ that could have and should have been spent elsewhere.

cap isn't moving anywhere for another year or 2 and both Stafford and Suh have to be dealt with as well as 6 or 7 others on defense....Martys fucked.
