I remember, in 1999 I thought Griese would just keep the good times rolling, since Elway has given way to Terrell Davis at the end of his career.
Yes, Davis (and Sharpe) getting hurt was a killer & their schedule was tough, but losing the vet QB put them in a tailspin despite having the talent to win back to back 97-98. That group never got back.
Hoping NE’s trajectory is different, but open to the possibility 2020 could be a dumpster fire. Regardless, I think the choice to move on was the correct one to make - Brady/no Brady, NE wasn’t winning the SB in 2020.
Denver analogies don't work for me, particularly because unlike them, the Patriots do not cheat.That’s an interesting analogy.
With Davis the injury wasn’t a one-off he was never the same after that. Would be like Brady never fully recovering from the ACL tear.
Oh snap.Denver analogies don't work for me, particularly because unlike them, the Patriots do not cheat.
Nice throw under pressure.
Ahh..thank you!The QB in the video is Bo Nix.
I agree.I still think that Josh Allen sucks too...His 2nd-half "performance" in the PO loss at Houston was a disgrace.
What also impressed me about the Auburn highlights is how good a receiver Darius Slayton was for them...
The real question should be "Can Stidham succeed as the QB of a 2020 Pats teams that is structured to be good enough to succeed ?"
Bottom line - If Stidham was starting another club, BB would shut down that teams run game and force Stidham to beat him.
I feel like the world is sleeping on this kid.Now, that's an interesting proposition. Consider all the teams in the league. How many do you think that Stidham could lead to the playoffs in 2020. Now, be fair, Stidham would have to replace the team's top QB.
I think that there would be some top teams sitting home if Stidham got all their reps at QB.
Then Stidham will fail.Now, that's an interesting proposition. Consider all the teams in the league. How many do you think that Stidham could lead to the playoffs in 2020. Now, be fair, Stidham would have to replace the team's top QB.

I'm not concerned that BB won't have a decent team that's coached and prepared to play 60 minutes. Stidham needs to hold his end up in the passing game.
I am concerned that Stidham won't make the plays when defenses dare him to beat them.
