^^Nah, they're the Emotionally Invested.

Emotionally Invested: You know the cop movies where the lieutenant calls the detective into his office and reprimands him: "You're getting too close!" Well, he's gotten too close. He tosses out more excuses and rationalizations than a battered wife. He's fallen in love with a player, and his heart won't allow him to admit that, well... it simply isn't going to work out.
LosmanIsGod: Of course, you J.P. haters are just going to dismiss his performance by saying, "Oh, he went 8-for-25 with four interceptions, he sucks." Two of those interceptions were tipped, and I'm pretty sure Lee ran the wrong pattern on the last pick, although I have no idea if this is the case. Plus the wind was really bad. And this is only J.P.'s third season- he's practically still a rookie. Peyton Manning threw six interceptions in a game earlier this year. I guess he sucks too, right?
If we get three or four All-Pros on the offensive line, a couple of more at receiver, if the defense plays at roughly an '85 Bears level and if Marshawn turns into a combination of Thurman Thomas and Joe Cribbs, J.P. can be a serviceable starter for us.

I'll admit that I would prefer that Tanguay stay here, and that there are lots of other Centers and LW'ers available that he can adapt his game to.
