Patriots Waive Gilbert Sign Matt Flynn

You do realize you can work that?????
"He seems like a nice little boy"

Yeah, I tried that a bit, but I don't think I fooled her. She knows Dad well.

I have 2 daughters that look better than the chick above. You should have seen their mother. I lost her to cancer years ago but I'm still very protective about my daughters. I once fired an employee on his first day for ogling my oldest......

Sorry to hear that Southie. I don't know what kind of cancer it was, but I ran the local Komen 5K Saturday and it was a great time and was glad I was able to participate in such a worthwhile event and cause. As for your daughters, I've got two, so I definitely understand. My youngest daughter is a second degree blackbelt so I never hesitated to make sure any guy she dated knew that.

Thank you Tex.

Thank you Tex.

that all puts a lot of shit on here in perspective, like does it really matter in the grand scheme of things.

The truth is, that us dads can't stand the thought of our little girls finding a man that she likes better than us. It's a blow to our egos and we just can't understand how such a sweet, intelligent girl could fall for such a twerp.

We forget that we were that twerp once.

Well at least if he gets cut he can still go home a very happy man. Not to brag or anything but she does look a little like my wife!

are you really Matt Flynn?

 

[redseat]

I think the Pats offense system is about a good a fit for Flynn, with his limitations, that he could wish for. Pure deep insurance.

I don't see why this isn't a good move for the Patriots. At worst he can also give Grappolo insight to the game and push him to become even better. Plus as people have mentioned they need MILFS in the stands!

I wish...Not sure any player in the league has made more by doing as little as he has done. He took one really good game against the Lions and turned it into 10's of millions of dollars.

I thought it was his game against the Pats that got him all his money.

Well if Tgann was on this thread he would probably say something along those lines. I guess he did have a decent game against the Pats in 2010 so maybe that is a little part of it but still just a few games of success and this kid landed a huge contract to then not start again. Not a bad way to make a living.

But Matt Flynn's arm, which was never great, is now shot. Think Pennington, great head, noodle arm. Only no where near as good.

 

[BigKen]

I've really come to believe that there are several things that make for a great QB.

The most important may be coaching. I paid $40 for my grandson to go to a three hour camp this past Saturday to get a session with the Jacksonville Jaguars QB Coach. I would have paid $400 an hour after what I saw and how well my grandson took to that three hours. It was all technique. Foot movement and position, turns, hitches and passing technique. He took him aside for about 3 minutes to help him put air under his passes for the downfield throws and I was amazed at the results and the accuracy. Had a couple of Jags to help with wide receivers and secondary. It's incredible what kids between 9 and 14 can absorb in such a short time.

Flynn was pressed to excel early and made the effort to do well. He may have gotten overpaid, but he just might not have had the right coach or circumstance. Once he got the money, he didn't have push himself. That's the difference between the Mannings, Bradys, Rodgers of the NFL and the guys who have to fight for a back-up spot.

Doesn't Flynn have something wrong with his arm/elbow? Tendinitis or something.
