It was reported that following the 2007 Pro Bowl, B. Daboll approached BB and asked to be removed from his position as Pats' WR coach and moved to Quarterbacks coach. This request was denied, and Daboll left the team and sulked his way to Jets, another Benedict Arnold in the Border Slaughter. Was he awash in self-pity? Exasperated by what he perceived as the Pats' "lack of talent" at the position? Cursing career road-blocks real or imagined? We can only speculate what takes place behind the BB curtain. If Daboll had just held on for another year, he would have helmed the best pass catching corps in the NFL, and become the O-coordinator of the NEP in 2008 after McDaniels' hire as HC of the Browns. Daboll may even have become heir apparent to the NFL throne. Such are life's cruel lessons for the impatient.
