[Soliel]

Doubtful.

 

[Steve102]

DUDE JUST STOP.

 

[Hyped]

No change, IMO...except for Brady's YPA maybe.

And Glenn wouldn't have called for Bledsoe's return. I seem to remember Glenn having some words to that effect after Brady's 1st comeback win vs. the Chargers at Foxboro Stadium where he threw a winning TD to Glenn to prevent us from falling to 1-4....a huge win in retrospective.

If I'm time travelling back to 2001, I'm telling myself to buy APPL, AMZN or Domino's...and Bitcoin (but to sell when it hits 15k)

Glenn would’ve made them better on offense for sure.

 

[RobertWeathers]

IMO the only players in the BB era who were dumped the year prior that could have significantly and favorably impacted the team's Super Bowl chances the following year were:

EDIT: removed Tom and Sammy Morris as they were injured- not dumped.

Ty Law in 2005
Deion Branch in 2006
Asante in 2008
Maybe AH in 2013.
Maybe Revis in 2015.

 

[farn]

I think so : negatively. The 2001 squad was all about team-selflessness-check your ego...

Glenn loved him some Glenn.

Don’t listen to him @mosslost : fly like an eagle.

wait, Brady got dumped in '08?

Rosie Colvin was a huge loss in ‘07. AD’s role was in coverage when Colvin was healthy and he was erasing every TE the Pats played. AD picked up the slack and was a very good pass rusher when he took over for Colvin and almost had three sacks in the Super Bowl. However, no one was able to defend that long catch and run to Kevin Boss in the second half of the Super Bowl.

Edit: I was confused by your list as you list Sammy Morris and Tom Brady as injured players in 2007 and 2008.

Yikes. What was I thinking..

I meant to have just A$ante

I screwed up.

Colvin was hurt too. I meant just players BB dumped.

This game is more fun when revising a season where it ends badly.

 

[ErniesPinkStripes]

Option C

 

[PATSYLICIOUS]

Brady and Glenn would’ve been a sick combo, they only had one game together and glenn was very productive. Brady of course got much better afterwards so who knows what kinda #s theyd have together.

Kind of makes sense when you recall Glenn's stopovers at the Italian sausage cart outside Foxboro Stadium. That might've swayed Brady away from avocado ice cream and the TB12 method. Garbage in, garbage out.

I think Deion in 06 was the biggest. Not even close.
