    I don't believe Ben would have done any better against Detroit. While it was an ugly game, Mason turned in a typical BigBen2021 performance. These comebacks Ben has engineered look great, but they are against a prevent defense that is allowing him to sling the ball underneath freely and giving his receivers room to run. I'm not saying Mason would turn this team into a playoff caliber team, but you may as well let him play for next year. Ben is not leading us to the playoffs. Even if we make the cut, it will be another embarrassing loss.

    I don't either. I can't remember the last time I drank a cola. I have had ginger ale in a mix drink, but that's the extent of it

    Sounds good. Almost as good as they had our offense figured out last year , but allowed 20 more tds thrown after they did. LoL.
    I guess they felt bad for us.
    Ben is 11th in Tds, 12 in passing yards, and 24th in turnovers.
    Come on you know dang well this sounds silly even if You want Ben gone.

    I'd take Ben another year in a heartbeat if he was willing rather than roll with what we currently have. Don't think it will happen though.

    You dont drink coke? Do you not eat pizza either? Because there is nothing that goes better with pizza then coke. If its not a law that they should be enjoyed together, it should be!

    I'll continue down this hijacked thread alley way. I like one type of soda and that is all. It has to be Canada Dry Ginger Ale. Scwepps or Vernons is horrible. Those two types are probably what Matt Canada actually drinks.:eek:

    Diet Canada Dry Ginger Ale is good. The regular is too sweet.

    This seems impossible but I drink around 3 liters of Mountain Dew every day and have for around 20 years. My daughter can't believe that I'm still alive but I told her I probably died several years ago but the sugar and caffeine keeps me still walking around.

    My Brother is that way with Dr. Pepper.
    I just never acquired the taste of Soda Pop.
    I drink 2 cups of coffee , or tea (I switch everyday) in the morning, and drink 100% juice (no additives),and water till about 4Pm,and then only water till the next day. I've pretty much been that way since I can remember.
    I remember running out of water catfishing at about 3am one time, and My buddy with Me had a Coke in His cooler.
    I was so thirsty I opened, and drank a glup.
    It took my breath away, and made me belch so hard.....I was like how can this quench your thirst, and pored it out. LoL

    I agree with that, it’s not a thirst quencher, I just like it with certain foods. I never grab a soda just to drink one.

    The only things I drink are water (bottled and tap), Diet Dr Pepper, Diet Coke, Decaf Coffee, Low Sodium V8 and BEER. Occasionally 2% milk and Powerade Zero.

    Can't stand super sweet drinks like regular Coke, Pepsi and Mt. Dew. Sweetened Tea makes me vomit.

    If you ever have the chance to have a regular coke made in Mexico, try it. They use cane sugar and the are infinitely better than US coke.

    I guess if I mixed it with Seagrams 7 it would be good. Maybe I should since Seagrams is just about 10 miles away from where I live. I'm sure it would make any soda better.

    If you’re talking just seeing stats, probably not. I’d bet I could still pick Ben out based on yds. per attempt. Stats are dependent on too many variables. The level and scheme of the competition all the way to weather. Pats threw 3 passes against the Bills. He’s done. Not saying I like it that he’s done, but done nonetheless.

    OK. I wrote this so long ago I forgot what we are talking about. LoL.
    Oh yes blind test.
    I believe that people think they could, but couldn't. Some mentioned I would cherry pick. Duh. Of course I would, but I would cherry pick a lot of players people say they wanted. The same players that Ben is killing in most categories. Some don't understand the difference between....not being the same Qb, and done. I've never said He was the same Qb. I've said He's not done. Big difference.
    I Love the He's done crowd that then brings up a Qb 2 get that isn't even as good as the Now Ben.
    That really makes me Question the....
    1. IQ of said person.
    2. The real reason they want Ben gone.
    3. Do they watch football

    I’m not saying he’s done because of performance (maybe a little). Also not saying it because of what anyone on this board, or the sports media says. I’m saying he’s done because he’s told people he’s done.

    The old Vernors, circa 1970, was excellent.

    Stats tell part of any story you want to create. It's valid data but there is always more to a story than digits on a spreadsheet. JMO>
