I find you amusing. That doesn't mean I value your opinion or particularly care for your thoughts.
As a secondary notion, I'm really not sure why you've taken the position on tagging Gostkowski. At his current tender, it provides the Patriots with a manageable cap hit and allows them to address a contract extension further into the offseason. Putting him on ice and attempting to lock up tricker, larger contracts (i.e. Revis & McCourty) is textbook Belichick. In fact, it's smart business practice.
Super Bowls are incredibly difficult to win. The fact that the Patriots are able to compete year in year out, no doubt aided by Brady speaks volumes about their competency.
If McCourty leaves it will be because he was offered a tremendous contract not because the Patriots didn't try or they were inept. As
@manxman2601 said, BB has his price point, he lets the market do its work and it's on from there.
