Re: Quality roster depth
I found this interesting...
""One of the big things is working with every player, and the assistant coaches do a great job," Belichick said. "You have your guys who are obviously playing, that you try to win with every week, and then there are guys who may not see any playing time and may look like they're a long way from playing -- and you coach them all the same. With good coaching, practice reps after practice reps, you hope they continue to improve, and then when they have to go in and play, you hope they go in and play pretty adequately.
"We've seen that many times on the offensive line, the secondary, and that's a real credit to the players who are working hard and stay prepared, and to the coaches who take it upon themselves to put just as much into guys who aren't playing as ones who are."
It's obvious that some players who aren't playing (e.g. Thomas) have been paying attention more than others.

Throughout history, poverty is the normal condition of man. Advances which permit this norm to be exceeded — here and there, now and then — are the work of an extremely small minority, frequently despised, often condemned, and almost always opposed by all right-thinking people. Whenever this tiny minority is kept from creating, or (as sometimes happens) is driven out of a society, the people then slip back into abject poverty.
This is known as "bad luck." RAH
