December 27, 201015 yr I'm with you. Happy New Year! Anyone who wants to say he's inconsistent and has had a bad year I'd be happy to agree with. To say he's terrible and have him play like he did this week and like he did against the Saints makes me believe he isn't terrible. Does he need to play better? Absoultely. Is he their biggest concern? Not even close. It's hard to argue that anyone other than FC has said anything any different than that yet you and CCC blast away. So when he does play as well as he has some times this year it's not ok for people to point that out? Interesting. I'd also point out to CCC that hyperventilating is a bit of a harsh word since all I said was interesting stat line against a team fighting for their life and FC said he played well and he thinks it may be because his receviers were in the right spot and gave full effort. I think those things might be correct?
December 27, 201015 yr I guess you are talking about his high school days. Sorry I couldn't resist. :lol: Hah! Thats funny.
December 27, 201015 yr I bet if they do, Ocho shows at all of the Patriots off season workouts instead of the crap he has been pulling here. Now, that would be interesting indeed. Why is Mike Brown's money any different than Bob Kraft's? I hope to goodness that they Bengals let him take his circus to another venue. This guy could care less about playing football and is a clown.
December 27, 201015 yr What no one has mentioned is that Palmer had all the time he wanted to throw the ball. He mentioned this in his interview and praised the line for giving him time to go through his reads. Two games in a row with no sacks allowed. That has some bearing on the wins also. Which raises an even bigger question about coaching - why was Dennis Roland allowed to play so long while Anthony Collins sat on the sideline? Roland was horrible and yet the coaches kept putting him out there. Paul Alexander is the worst coach on the Bengals staff - far worse than Brat IMO - and yet he has been here for 10 years now?

This guy could care less about playing football and is a clown. It's simple. Hoodie commands the respect of his players. It's a winning atmosphere. When you've been on annual losers, you do what you're told because it's obviously worked there before. You'd also see Chad running the right routes, keeping a muzzle on on his twitter, etc. The reasoning is simple. In New England, the players have no choice but to respect what Kraft, Hoodie, and Brady have accomplished and the way they do things.

There's no doubt in my mind that Chad could go to New England & succeed. They'd be foolish to take him though, IMO.

December 27, 201015 yr Why did Hoodie's magic formula fail miserably in Cleveland? It starts at the top. Kraft has a way of doing things that demand attention to detail, and precise execution and a longing for excellence. Hoodie has that same mentality, which is why neither he nor New England would be nearly as successful without the other. When you add a QB with the desire to be perfect and the arrogance of Tom Brady, not to mention his leadership skills, you have the absolute perfect formula to win in this league. It all trickles down. Hoodie, didn't have those things in Cleveland. Players, whether big names or scrubs, come into New England and it's an instant culture shock, because of the attention to detail and the pefection they show in execution of even the most basic things. They have no choice, but to adapt, and do so at a very accelerated rate. That's why you see guys like Faulk, Woodhead, Green-Ellis, Welker, Guyton, (and even Brady to an extent), etc. excel in New England. They're the guys who have always had to put in the extra effort to get noticed, and to just have a spot. You know they aren't going to get outworked or outprepared. In a system centered on precision and detail, they're ideal.

December 27, 201015 yr Guess that means Brady will be terrible next season. Chad could really make him look bad by shortarming balls and running bad routes.

December 27, 201015 yr Plus they cheat. Actually Mangini and McDaniels are the cheaters....Now that they're gone, they run a clean operation... Plus, we all know, if you ain't cheatin', you ain't tryin'.
December 27, 201015 yr Actually Mangini and McDaniels are the cheaters....Now that they're gone, they run a clean operation... Plus, we all know, if you ain't cheatin', you ain't tryin'. Belichik was the ring leader of that operation and was fined $500,000. He also admitted illegally taping other teams all the way back to 2000.

In New England, the players have no choice but to respect what Kraft, Hoodie, and Brady have accomplished and the way they do things. Talent wise Chad is still one of the best. So your right if he ends up being a Pat he probably will do great, because he would do all the little things again. I remember the days when we heard about Chad basically staying the night at the stadium all the time, and being at most of the camps. Then when he stopped doing this, we seen his and Palmers play go down because of all the miscommunication between the two.
