I haven't picked a team yet ..feels kinda weird but i got into the NFL 4/5 years ago and didn't want to pick a team that was already good or just poop ...but now I just want to let it happen

I think tannehil is not even close to the Answer in Miami ..he's like one step above Brock Osweiler ...he's more accurate but can't throw a deep ball ...maybe he's like a poor mans Alex smith

I like jay tho ...drafted him in one of my football pools hoping but couldn't wait thus long

You need to get on that.

Actually, one day it will just come to you.

Maybe Tanny isn't, but his deep ball is much improved. He still misses now and then but he's also had some brutal drops.

I tried to trade for Jay but i'm in an auction league with keepers and because of his low cost......no dice.

Yeah I know

I find every year I like different teams ... or I tend to cheer against my buddies teams ...I hate the patriots but I was one of about 5 in a pub cheering when the Seahawks lost ....my buddy is a hige Hawks fan

Maybe I'm wrong on tannenhil ...I just hate to see teams build around something that's not there .... guess it could be worse ...he could be Blake bortals

Many ways to build a football team. I'm a firm believer that you should control the line of scrimmage, so O-line and D-line. Aside from that, a few good playmakers on both sides of the ball and you're set. You don't have to have a "franchise QB".

Brady, Rothlisberger, Wilson all won before they became more than game managers.

Reminds me a lot of the Leafs last year. Really poor team, not much talent, tries really hard, keeps the scores close (not many blowouts), no one can score.

So basically your flipping a coin on how the game will turnout and with a non offensive team it's not 50/50

Canucks fan are going to love an experienced bo and guys like Brock ....a few game breakers with demko could be a good recipe

Not much help in Utica. They're God awful including the tenders.

Need OJ and BB to amount to something

You can always spot other bad teams without watching a game.

Teams that are bad , the fans come in here to , brag , troll and taunt. Good teams the fans couldn't give a rats ass about us

We are a few years away from an experienced Bo and Brock and Demko but this should be when the team makes a leap. Right now we have seen basically what many have talked about here all summer. When healthy (like the first 5 games) we can compete and keep games close but when injuries strike we are in serious trouble. We only have Burrows Dorsett and Tanev out so far and look how that has affected the outcomes…and they aren't even high impact players.

On the other hand though having Stetcher in is outstanding. Refreshing look at the future.

I do think Eriksson and Baertchi will get going eventually…but by then injuries may have just killed us.

But I'm ok with another top 5 pick if that's the case.

I think the bottom pairing is bad. Stecher belongs.

When you have two or three in your top 6 if you include JV that haven't scored in 8 games , that needs to be fixed.

I would sit Sven and let him know it is unacceptable . You can't sit Louie or the media and Taj would be screaming for JBs head.

I hope this years leash is very short.

Always nice going to a Canucks game and having 10 gang squad cops in your section. This poop is getting out of control.

I hear you. I'm not a Miller fan but it sucks watching this market turn every starter into a scapegoat. You can only get a break in Van as the back up. Been this way since Cloutier...

Shut up and stop blaming the fans and the media. Such a weak argument. We are the reason this sad sack franchise still exists.

Goalies get grief because they deserve it. If you are going to be a QB, pitcher, or goalie you are going to get more praise than deserved when you win and more criticism than you deserve when you lose.

It should be interesting to see how they rebound tonight. It's not getting easier with the road trip next week. Gud seems to be stepping into a leadership role.

The problem was the 4-0 start. Our fan base is so dumb many actually believed we'd make the playoffs. If we started 0-4 we wouldn't be in this position.

I know.

Sick of people bleating-out that statement about goalie graveyards because they can't rationalize the situation. What goalie has been chased out of Vancouver?

Not Lu, clouts, Schneider, and miller for that matter.

It's just a horse poop comment.

Yes Stetcher needs to stay and for sure our bottom pairing D is just god awful.

As you know I'm not a fan of it but it's looking more and more like Hansen needs to go back with the Sedins and Eriksson with Bo or Sutter. But would Eriksson look at the time with Bo as a demotion to the third line? Tough to say.

It's too bad JB was unable to solidify another impact winger before seasons start.

JV just needs to spend a few months in Utica to cure his self-entitlement a bit.

It's too bad we don't have the assets to make a run at Trouba.
