Signing(s): Antonio Brown signs with the Patriots

[Voight]

AB is a piece of ****, that's pretty clear. However, it does not warrant suspension. Well, the Taylor thing might.

The Pats might be wise to cut him and avoid the incoming meltdown. The guy is clearly unhinged.

For one this happened before he was a Pat.

Another thing is I think by now Kraft has made it clear he doesn't give a shit until it negatively affects his franchise. He knew Hernandez had tons of red flags / there were rumours of gang involvement but drafted him, gave him 40 million and then kept him until he got caught committing murder.

 

[John Price]

He is really a piece of shit

just suspend him already ffs

Has the NFL ever conducted a credible investigation tho?

Nope.

But Brown's file is starting to be REALLY thick.

Nope.

But Brown's file is starting to be REALLY thick.

I think it’s gonna be more of an issue if he continues to play, all of his nonsense he’s pulled in Pittsburgh was swept under the rug and ignored. Now that he’s with New England, all of his dirty laundry is being exposed.

Patriots have to wait and see with him but it’s getting like you said, thick.

no criminal charges for 2017 incidents due to statute of limitations

AB posted conversations with the fart doctor (his name from now on) from a year ago where the two are joking about it. Seems like they were close

Not that anybody really cares about the fart stuff lol. I for one am a little more concerned about the possible sexual misconduct

 

[John Price]

Rog needs to suspend his ass

Rog needs to suspend his ass

Do you realize the precedent this could set though? My team is playing against Kansas City in the playoffs next week? All right, I'm going to hire an escort to make up a phony allegation against Pat Mahomes to have him pulled from the game. These are the kind of things the league has to consider in this case.

Why is the NFL even involved in any investigations? Police exists for a reason.

The police arent involved because its a civil case

Ouch, that’s a huge endorsement deal gone.

Exclusive: Accuser Says Antonio Brown Sent ‘Intimidating’ Text Messages

 

[DaBadGuy316]

The never ending saga. Hes mentally spiraling out of control and needs help.

[Scotty Pucks]

If I’m a Patriots fan, I don’t care.

AB is NOT getting suspended bro. They’re grasping for straws by calling those texts “threatening”. Ridiculous mob mentality has forsaken due process.

And even if he does, they can win the SB without him.

 

[Jersey Fresh]

Lol the Pats fan spin zone in here is hilarious.

 

[John Price]

I didn't care at first but after he joined the Pats all this news started leaking about what a terrible guy he was. He has a long history of stiffing employees and clearly has problems. Any time he faces adversity or a situation he doesn't like he throws a temper tantrum to get rid of it. I thought the Raiders situation was a sly con to get out of a situation he didn't like at first, but clearly he has done this time and time again (see interpreting the fish head as a mafia threat)

I would not object if he was banned from the league. But as someone who quoted me said, it would def set a bad precedent. But Brown is a real jackass.

 

[JetsWillFly4Ever]

Get this guy out of the league, he is an embarrassment to the NFL.

Ill say this. Texting a pic of her kids is not cool and out of line regardless. Everything else though he said is a bunch of nothing.

 

[Blitzkrug]

That intimidation tactic should probably indicate his ass obviously did something wrong if he resorts to that.

League needs to do something this time. I can understand letting the first accusation slide since as somebody said it sets a potentially bad precedent. This time though? This needs to be answered for.

They did nothing with Hill, so to be honest, the precedent was already set.

 

[John Price]

Belichick was asked repeatedly about Brown until he offered a warning to stick to football questions as his New England juggernaut prepares for the Jets this week.

He was then asked if any player could become too much of a distraction, and he stormed off.

 

[Blitzkrug]

If the Patriots knew this ****storm was coming they don't touch him. Belichick isn't an idiot.

At the time of the signing, Brown looked like another Randy Moss or Corey Dillion. Misfit teammate because he wasn't happy with his situation and was labelled as a cancer. Though Moss and Dillion actually like, at least tried to not be a cancer when their situations went south. Neither guy committed a crime during their time in the league.

I can get why they signed him. The Patriot Way seems to be the cure to a lot of players issues. Brown at this point though is more a problem in just the room though.
