The Patriots have lost their minds

[Wally The Barber]

This has got to be some kind of a joke!
I really thought the Pats would let this guy go but they seem to believe they are smarter then the rest of the NFL.
Come on guys, there has to be better options!

To be fair to the pessimists, I have to say.... Wally I don't think we have the right to be questioning moves made by a team that has owned us for half a decade and has 3 times the no. of sb rings we have in recent memory.

If you want to question the fins moves , that's different.

To be fair.....That is a dumb move not matter how you want to cut it!

I really don't see the problem. Could Vinny be a smart tactician who is able to see what the other team is doing and where his own team is faultering...sort of a coach in uniform...if the Pats win the SB again they will get the last laugh and if they don't I don't suspect it will be because VT is the 3rd QB.

Tonight has got to be Troll night!
The Patriots are the laughing stock of the league today...get real!

The skid row hoody could sign Otto Graham ( dead ) and many would label it " brilliant ! "

you are nuts man. First of all, VT was on the team last year and most people who realized this also realized they had kept him on their roster and expected him to be signed. He's not there to compete with Brady for the job he's there to be supportive and if it came down to any team playing their third string qb I wonder who would be better some first year project or VT. Get real man the guy has 20 years experience in the league and I bet he can still sling it for a few weeks if need be and will be a great addition to the effort on the sidelines.

You are a blind homer reaching for something to criticize the patriots for. They are going to kick our asses up and down the field as usual and you can't show them any respect.

[justasportsfan]

Vinny is probably still better than our backups

I wouldn't say that just yet.

THe homer in me just kicked in.

[Novacane]

Heres hoping Vinny gets on the field this year after pretty boy tears an ACL

I'm betting he can still hand the ball off to LM and throw a screen now or then for a couple of weeks.

oh I'm guessing he can throw the darn thing downfield. VT always had a great arm! Had he not landed in TB his career would have been totally different and he would be getting a lot more respect IMO.
