if anyone wants to listen..just the transcript itself is enough for me

Shaughnessy: Belichick deserves some blame for Pats' demise - Dan Patrick.com

i hate it when he starts calling out how fans feel about the team/coach just like he did with the sox.

What is this "demise" ****?

Didn't you hear? THe dynasty is over. Eisen, Sanders and Irvin said so on NFL Network.

That’s what we always do, and I think the last nine years we’ve put a pretty competitive team out there on the field every year. I think that’s how you do it – you get good football players. Sometimes they are not always at the No. 1 position, but I don’t think you pass up good football players to get the guys who aren’t as good just because they’re at a position that somebody feels you need.”

So I just want to make sure im clear on whats happening.

BB has killed the dynasty? None of the young promising players that he picked this year exist? BB is a failure because he let old players who couldnt run anymore leave? Making the playoffs is bad?

Im really confused by all these stories im reading

SVN

i sometimes wish these guys came into a forum and talked with actual people instead of calling out fans as idiots for believing in the coach and supporting the team. Has CHB ever written anything good about anyone ? Even one thing he wrote after a pats victory he berated moss's behaviour

They all have to get the talent knock in once in a while to remind us that it isn't all about coaching, which Belichick has tried to tell them as they lifted him onto the pedestal from which they now intend to knock him...

And weren't these same geniuses all imploring him to get younger and faster for the last couple of seasons, as I think he pointed out to some of them he had a few weeks back...

I heard someone say today that one of the reason Bill basically decided a long time ago to just ignore the media is because they can't help you when your winning and they won't when your losing. I other words what they have to say has no real bearing on anything.

this is the basic issue with the media. sadly they are way to powerful because no one challenges them.

The Dynasty was in the 2000s, and more accurately, the early half of the 2000s. Whatever happens from here on out is different from then.

Painful as it is to admit, the Patriots have not won a single playoff game since the loss to the Giants in the Super Bowl and most of the defense has been turned over.

Clearly the dynasty is over...BUT that does not mean the Patriots will return to mediocrity or poor performance.

However, I do not think we will see a run like we did in 2000 again.
