Belichick remarks on Mayo's "soft" comments on Pat McAfee Show - "They're not soft"

Status
Not open for further replies.
You know someone has no regard for fact when they toss out remarks about the “soft” defense of the past 5 years, suggesting that the defense (despite being statistically superior in every regard, by large margins) actually also sucked recently under BB, just as much as it currently is sucking under Mayo.

Of course that’s not true, especially when weighing the fact that the offense has been marginally better this season and is turning the ball over less, meaning the D’s job should (at least theoretically) be easier (less time on the field, more rest, fewer short fields).
 
Pretty sure throwing out Tom Brady wasn't an ownership thing
Who told him he wouldn't stand in the way? Who granted him a no franchise clause? Yup as much as everyone wants to blame mean Bill that mess was really Kraft's fault. He chose Bill over Brady, then he fires Bill, and now he's left to cry about the HoF.

You said ownership threw away the best thing we had going for us (which of course was Tom Brady).

Great so looks like we agree then.
 
It's curious how Bill gets credit for last year's draft class good players, but Johnathan is credited for all the bad picks and decisions.
The collaboration gets credit for players taken since 2021.

It's been reported BB didn't want Mac and had to be talked into him, so until more evidence emerges about other draft prospects we can only speak on individual reports.

I've never absolved BB for the mess this team became in 2022 and 2023, I just didn't lump the entirety of the blame pie on him and pretend Bob Kraft didn't announce to the entire world back at the 2021 owner's meeting that personnel was now a collaboration.

That is what the haters here have done, ignored words directly from the owner's mouth to push their own agenda.
 
Indeed it did.

Mac threw two interceptions in that game genius. One on the opening drive, another on the first drive exiting halftime.

The defense gave up points, they also spent the entire game on the field and were exhausted because here was the Patriot's drive chart results:

Interception
Punt
Punt
FG
Halftime
Interception

Scoring a couple garbage time points won't win you the game Einstein. Turning it over twice will lose it.

"The defense gave up points" lololololololololol. Ya think?

TD, TD, TD, TD, TD, TD, TD, victory formation. First time in history any playoff team did that to another playoff team. Way to prepare your defense for this one coach.

Jones had sweet squat to do with the outcome. You know that but defend that wall baby!

Mac Jones two turnovers had squat to do with that outcome... this is why you have no fcking clue how football works.

Stick to basketweaving or whatever it is you do in your spare time besides barf all over the pages of this forum.

And if that was the case, the pick is still 100% on Bill regardless.

So one of two things (or both) are undeniably true - Bill and his two bozo assistants botched the development of Mac Jones... or Bill picked a QB in the first round that was not a starter in this league.

Neither of these make your hoodied hero look particularly great.

Your hoodied hero's defense took the biggest ass whooping in NFL playoff history that an offense can possibly dish out. Jones was just along for the ride.

Cope and seethe.

The defense wasn't good, the offense and Mac were putrid. The defense got younger and faster next season, they became elite again.

The offense never got fixed because Jon and Bob insisted Mac was good... like you bobo.

"Wasn't good" lol. That's like saying a pile of crap doesn't taste very good.

"Elite" lmao yeah they were amazing the next season. So elite.

How many Mac pick sixes contributed to those scores, how many shortened fields from Mac interceptions and fumbles, how lopsided was the time of possession in the other teams favor because Mac couldn't engineer anything but a three and out?

Reading your attempts at trying to understand football is like watching a monkey try to fck one.

Team Bill sure has a lot of excuses for their hoodied hero eh?

Oh right... getting clowned by Justin Fields - the hallmark of an elite defense baby.

Football is a team sport. You don't understand football. Excuses have nothing to do with it.

Learn the game.
