I don't see the name "Culpepper" there. And, that is a must because this team, in this league, can NOT allow one more game to be played in the manner that the first three were, by Cassel. And, I am afraid that we have seen the "best" that he is capable of.

Did you even watch Culpepper play in Miami?
Do you think you're a better talent evaluator than Scott Pioli and Bill Belichick?
I'm really sick of ignorant "fans" thinking "cement-boot" Culpepper is the answer to one bad game.

Everybody relax. They're 2 and 1. He's a young quarterback making his first few starts. They're a good team. Stop going crazy.

Culpepper isn't the answer, did you watch him in Miami? At all? Suck it up, getting to the playoffs would be a miracle, forget about it after that, aint gonna happen. We better get used to be good sports when it comes to football around here, the whining about this is unbeleivable.

I'd hate to see our team lose salary cap space throwing good money after bad or mediocre interim quarterback solutions.
wost case scenario is that the patriots go 500 for the season which makes them exceptionally well positioned for next years draft and Brady's return, the second year of Moss's contract, and a legitimate shot to go deep in the playoffs.
I'm not ruling this years season out, but I just don't see options out there for QB that would be worth what they would cost the team.
