    Unfortunately, his inconsistent play picked up right where it left off last year. Mangini has done the right thing.

    It's the curse of Sesame Street! So far, out of the 3 players who appeared together on the show, 2 are gone (Pennington, Graham) and 1 (Coles) is a hit away from not remembering where he put his car keys a minute earlier.

    Great?where the hell are we going to find a guy who can deliver us consistent seven yard punts at this point in the season?

    Just when our defense was getting the hang of starting every series on the 50?

    He waited to long. He sucked last year and should have been replaced in the off season. He's obviously great in practice and that' it

    Mesaage??? The message is very simple " If you suck and continue to suck, you will get replaced" This guy sucked in the pre-season and should have gone then. I am dissapointed that it took so long

    Mangini may share some of the blame for the Pats loss, but that doesn't mean Graham should have stayed. His punting has been atrocious.

    This was a great move. Graham just sucks, plain and simple. He was a very big reason we lost on Sunday.

    Sorry, Ben. I liked your story back when you first got here, but you gotta produce.

    Ah conspiracy theorists, gotta love them. The cutting of Ben Graham must definitely be because Mangini is trying to cover his own ass. It has absolutely nothing to do with the fact that Graham has been awful as of late.

    If we miss the POs then we can look back & directly point the finger at Mangini since he allowed incompetance to reign on his team which assisted us in losing the NE game. Personally if I was Woody I would make Mangini run 5 laps around the field at top speed wearing a sign saying I was real stupid for giving BG a roster spot in the 1st place

    Shotty should have to do zero. Instead he should be axed immediately & replaced with BF because BF has more FB in his pinky then Shotty has in his entire brain

    IS Reggie Hodges the new punter or someone who they are trying out?

    Dunno I got a text that said he was signed. I am assuming he is our new punter.

    The CS has decided to forgo punting for the rest of the season. BF will be in shotgun every play and throwing 80 yard bombs most of the time. Mangini is done being conservative.
