Not complex at all, just a bunch of hyperbolic bull ****. Here we goooooo.
You mean like the front office to assistant coaches, scouting and QC that every single NFL team has? Yes, there's many moving parts. All teams have them. Just a bunch of words that don't say a thing.
Every single NFL team has mid-level and end of roster talent. Some are versatile, some are not. Some are more talented than mid-level players from other teams, some are not. Do we have to go through every 2nd RD bust to show how nonsensical your BS is?
Eureka, Brady didn't operate in a vacuum. What a deep statement. Of course, if he did, he could throw and catch his own pass. Lol, at consistently excellent defenses/special teams. You don't even believe that one. More BS.
The same rule changes that all other teams had to abide by? I thought Belichick's genius was an advantage over other team's coaches. Everyone said Belichick would sweep away the competition during the Covid season. That's your excuse for the piss poor play the last few seasons? Come on man, more BS.
More pathetically absurd excuses. Do you think the Patriots is the only team that loses staff to other teams? Where do you think all these hot shot WC young coaches are coming from that are all over the league? Not from the Patriots, Einstein.
Real reason: from 2010 to 2018, Brady's offenses scored >27 ppg every season and >30 ppg in 4 of those seasons. Brady has the most regular and post seasons with 27+ ppg and 30+ ppg, in NFL history.
Look at the O DVOA vs D DVOA, and your bs statements don't carry any weight.
The FACT is, that as soon as Brady left the building, Belichick’s "innovative, winning program" turned to ****. Everyone has noticed this. Every day, more and more people are saying it. Belichick was lucky as hell to have the consistency of the GOAT QB for 18 years.
Again, what a load of bull ****. And yes, your writing style sucks ass
OF COURSE it's too complex for your noggin' to absorb. That's why you respond in these piques of anger and frustration, scrambling for whatever statistics you can muster to buttress ill-informed, naively biased takes and childishly haughty comebacks. You are one hateful little feller, that's for sure. And certainly not interested in a reasonable exchange of ideas or (heaven forbid) humbling yourself enough to learn something new. For you, it begins and ends with Brady > Belichick. Period, full stop. Any evidence or argument in support of Bill's crucial role as orchestrator of New England's dynasty run is dismissed outright as B.S. or labeled excuse making.
What you take issue with in the above reveals two basic deficits. One is previously acknowledged -- your lack of firsthand experience in athletics/team sports, which offer intuitive understanding of why things like coaching matter (remember, you claimed elsewhere that success in the NFL is "100 percent the players"). The other is ignorance or conscious dismissal of the evolutionary history behind Belichick's program philosophy from 2000-on. Which was unique in several respects, including running everything from the head coach's office. It ran like a top until the aforementioned league rules changes (some in direct response to Patriots success via Bill Polian, et al.) and staff brain drain precipitated its downhill slide. They couldn't beat him so they changed the game, hired away his people and conjured punitive violations like Spygate and Deflategate. Those dynamics were in play well before Brady's exit. Unfortunately and by his own design, Belichick became the proverbial Little Dutch Boy: too many holes in the dike, not enough fingers and it all came crashing down.
But you can't discount factors beyond his control. Or, the fact it worked so well for so long only partly due to Brady's presence. It's more than coincidence that the rocky last few years of BB's tenure included a steady outflow of coaches, executives and scouts including but not limited to Nick Caserio, Monti Ossenfort, Dave Zeigler, Dante Scarnecchia and Ernie Adams, PLUS Brian Flores, who took several assistants with him to Miami and Josh McDaniels, who poached other assistant coaches on his way to Las Vegas. Those are huge setbacks of a scope unmatched by any other franchise.
I could go on with links to articles and stats illustrating BB's innovative approach to roster management early on and why things turned sour two decades later, how the Patriots' defense and special teams consistently provided balance, how great coaching helped make champions of a largely waiver-wire roster in 2001, etc. I could tell you to read Michael Holley's book
Patriot Reign or David Halberstam's
The Education of A Coach. But you would just scoff and snark and proclaim all the good was Brady's influence and all the bad was because he left.
You call these observations "nonsensical," ********," "pathetically absurd excuses," etc. Not sure when you became a Tom Brady fan but the dynasty was more than half over by the time you joined Patsfans. A relative Johnny-come-lately here, your lack of grounding shows. As much as you idolize TB12, one might think you'd respect his take on coaching. The fact you give no credence to his repeated claim that he owes his career to Belichick is odd, to say the least. Is that because it contradicts your agenda?
From the article:
Tom Brady Gives Decisive Opinion On The 'Brady Or Belichick' Debate With Patriots
"I think it's a pretty ****ty argument actually, that people would say that," Brady said when told that the player would deserve more credit than the coach. "Because I can't do his job and he can't do mine. The fact that you could say, would I be successful without him, the same level of success? I don't believe I would have been."
So there you have it, straight from the horse's mouth: Tom Brady is on record characterizing your antI-Belichick campaign as "pretty ****ty." If that's not the final word, I don't know what is.
