Now I've gotta root for them to go 0-16. If that doesn't get him out of here, nothing will. I’d much rather go 0-16 than 11-5 this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dissident2 Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 I have to hand it to the media today; they were not the spineless pansies I expected them to be. Some good, straightforward questions that needed to be asked. Yes, we knew Bruce would skirt them and not answer them, but the questions still needed to be there on record. Bruce's 38 percent winning percentage. The total destruction of the fan base. Every game's an away game. Why he needs to apologize to the fan base (which he didn't do). Etc., etc. Good job, media. Bruce as stupefyingly uninspiring as always with his continuous spewing of BS and non-answers. And yeah, the fact that he treated the takeover yesterday as an anomaly "because Patriots" says it all. Totally and willfully blind to what's happening and why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riggo#44 Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 At this point, I don't know what it will take. The league would have to step in. But they won't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandyHolt Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 Bruce escaped the elephant in the room, every game is an away game. It has NOTHING to do with the Patriots, as he made it out to be. Likely a half ass attempt to blame Jay for it WRT the video. Our stadium always overrun is our most pressing and glaring sign of MAJOR problems. I think its a unique dynamic that no US sport has ever seen before. Too bad no reporter asked about the Rossini report that the team had the video for 3 years.

mudpig Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 Bears haven't had huge success over the years, those fans took over the stadium. Ridiculous answer from Allen. His eyes looked glazed too, I wonder what Bruce was on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Presser Summary Plan at QB - Callahan decides who is the QB. Ask him later. Yeah. Okay. Quote Jay not fired for Cause. I'm not up to date on my corporate terms, what is "cause"? Does this mean not because of the videos? Quote Success in Oak and Tampa. What is the plan for DC. Bill implementing a plan. Bill who? Belichick? That would be dope. I know he doesn't mean Callahan. Quote Drafting Haskins - all on same page. Coaches in draft meetings and sign off on everything. Jay was excited about Haskins. There is likely some truth here. But not all of the truth. I still think Jay liked Haskins... just not for him and not for the current direction of the franchise. Quote Stadium overrun. Can you apologize to fans? And what will you do to make things better. Spins it to being Patriots just being a strong team. Our fans made $ on selling tickets to people in the NE. Yes. People are routinely doing it. Quote Trent - yeah he is not here - no dialogue. No consideration to trading him. Quote No on field success - culture is DAMN good. Young guys came from winning culture. We got Landon. How does culture translate to wins - winning![/quote] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BatteredFanSyndrome Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 The sad part about all this is, and I brought it up last week, before Jay was fired... This team isn't as bad as their record suggests. There has always been a likelihood that they end up winning some games down the stretch. I know it's fun to dream about 0-16 and getting the top pick in the draft. But the reality has always been that they would win some games this year, just none that mean anything and would only deter from selecting at the top of the draft. Now, when they win these games, Bruce will get to hang his hat on 'Told Ya So' to Dan and make it appear as if this was all about the head coach. Even though Jay was only here because of Bruce, I'm sure Dan has forgotten all about that now after so many benders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idaho fan Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 Bruce and Dan has taken this fan base from being angry to having apathy. NOW they are taking it to a new level. They pushing the fan base into a position of actually rooting against the team. This press conference actually made me like Bruce less than before and that is an astonishing achievement.

He says it in a way where it's obvious he's not trying to paint them as good workers and minds, but for when if something goes awry he blames them. It's comical how predictable all of this is.

Yeah the way Bruce responded to dude you've been here 10 years how can you explain the futility in all that time -- he starts bringing up Doug and other people implying are you saying they are doing a bad job, let me tell you how hard they work... It's comical. He doesn't take the blame for squat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandyHolt Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 Bruce weaseled out of there - he and Dan are toasting right now. We did it, as they dump everything into Callahan's lap. If our run game and endless penalties are any indicator, Bill will be over his head. Apparently Bill is in charge of any additional coaching changes. Callahan is now the lightning rod for Manusky, etc. @KDawg Fired for cause: Termination for cause generally occurs when an employee makes a severe error in actions or judgment; occurs when an employee's actions in the workplace, interactions with their coworkers, interaction with their manager, or ways in which they treat a customer or vendor are so egregious that they require employment termination Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
