Six years? How many holdouts is he going to fit in during that time?
__________________
I’m guessing zero, since he finally got what he wanted all along – a long term contract that pays him among the league’s best at OT.

Mankins is a G not an OT, but thanks once again for showing how little you bandwagon Pats fans actually know about your own team.
_______

Don’t know if you’ve ever looked at a keyboard, but the T and the G are right next to each other…

wanna go toe to toe on who knows more about each otehr’s team??

I guarantee I SMOKE YOU.

How juvenile of you to make up nicknames for two other posters. Clearly you’re a seventeen year old, in a world full of adults.

We don’t have to make up a silly nicknames for you, you’ve done that for us yourself.

Juvenile? Like all those childish feet jokes that you Pats crybabies are making on the Jets’ threads? Clearly you an irrational Pats idiot, in a world of rational NFL fans of other teams.

As for my nickname, it’s meant to be silly. After all, we are on an Internet website, designed to follow a kid’s game played by grown men. To pretend that this is ADULT behavior is ridiculous, not to mention ignorant.

I never wish for an injury, but I would definitely chuckle a little if this guy blew an assignment in the 1st game and the Pats lose Brady in the opener.

What’s the difference between wishing for an injury and delighting in one? Either way you’re waving your flag of classlessness.

You must have missed all of those Pats fans wishing injury on Mark Sanchez over the past couple of years. Your “classlessness” comment is hilarious, considering that you are a part of the most classless fan base in the NFL. Not to mention the most hypocritical.

All I know is that there were reams of Pats fans just last year talking trash about him due to his holdout. I guess now all is forgotten?

The guy played hard ball, certainly pissed me off last year, but if it works it works. I think he and Light are a little overrated (TB’s best quality is a sixth sense about the location, vector, and speed of pass rushers) but nonetheless good O linemen. Gives the young guys time to grow up into the job. Gives me a break from hearing about it.
Now some NYJ fans can question my loyalty as they romp around in Cotchery’s guts.

Even Mankins, who openly conflicted with the administration. Many other franchises would have spitefully shipped that player out in a trade or worse. Instead, they make him a sweetheart deal, remove the acrimony, and have a top-flight performer locked up for the long haul. If only more owners and front offices were able to emulate the Patriots. I know I wish my team was a lot more akin to the team Robert Kraft has assembled. Haters will always try to denegrate them, but that’s mainly jealousy at work.

————————————

In this decade that we’re only 1 year into? Is that the decade you’re talking about?

Well, they’ve won the most games with the fewest losses. They won their division easily. They scored the most points and the most net points… All in a rebuilding year. So… that’s what they’ve done this decade. Unless your team is Green Bay, then you really can’t say they’ve come close to what the Patriots have done.

Wilfork last year. Mankins this year.

Nothing like locking in stability on the OL. I’m stoked (again) for the Pats. And, yes, still stung by the Jets loss (and Ravens loss)… but those games don’t stop them from being the SB favorite again. Yeah!

I can see how the haters out there would have it in for a hard working guy who does a great job. Maybe during his hold out he should have done some sit ups in his driveway.

Stay classy.

I hear he’s pretty good at that!

I hadn’t heard a word about this, and I am borderline fanatical about Bulldog football. Not a word mentioned.

Its nice to see stuff like this in a world of lock outs and hold outs.

Six years? How many holdouts is he going to fit in during that time?

This won’t save them. The Jets OWN you! We will knock you out of the playoffs (assuming you get there) AGAIN!! LOLOLOL J-E-T-S JETS JETS JETS

So, the apex of your pride comes from knocking out the Pats and not (as usual) winning anything. Guess now we know why the Jet’s haven’t won anything in DECADES. Winless longer than ANY other team in the NFL except…..damn, NONE of them. Couldn’t win the division during the last two years of the Patriots re-building, had to hope someone would roll over and let them into the playoffs after Fat Rex said the playoffs were out of the picture!,couldn’t win the AFC title, the NFL title- NOTHING!!! And NE was 14-2 DURING the last two years of re-building.

But, let’s take a poll. For Superbowl purposes and you’re down to your last $ 1000.00 dollars, which of the two teams would you HONESTLY put your money on to win it all THIS YEAR?
Thumbs up for the NE Patriots, thumbs down for the Jes’t.

It means exactly what everyone with any knowledge of the NFL will tell you: he’s the best or at least in the top 3 of interior linemen on any list by anyone…

Deal with it…

It’s so sad to hear from Jets fans, your only chance to win a Super Bowl was the past two years and you blew it!!

Start accepting it now folks…
