OK Folks I didn't make the rules in fact I don't even like them but Patsfans has spoken and the rules have been firmly set forth in the Brady forum and in the Bill mega thread you are only allowed to choose one (and no Josh doesn't count sub rules firmly set forth coordinators don't count)
 
Because he has final say on personnel (along with everything else).....Vrabel.
 
 
Once and for all, stop this nonsense please. I would have expected better of you OP at this juncture. It is about the overall team, not individual parts of it. I think it was Boston media and media at large that started this BB v TB rubbish and this fan forum has had quite enough of all that crap imho. We have had enough Division on this board.
Remember the old adage "Divide and Conquer".
Can't we ALL just enjoy the PATRIOTS TEAM and Organisation as a whole and just be fans of that and cease dissecting.
My view from afar.

So you're saying it's Drake?
 
Drake Maye leaping all the way to an ELITE level instead of just making gradual, incremental improvement is why this team is outperforming expectations so much. That’s the main thing taking them from 500ish team with a decent shot to push for playoffs because of weak schedule to an actual dark horse contender.

The important thing is that we have all the right pieces for them to grow together - HC, OC, QB and very good OL coaches as well by all accounts. Vrabel has incredibly quickly assembled a very good staff, brought in the right personalities, and established a culture (we’ll see if anything needs to eventually be done at the DC position). Unless you have the goat, I think we’ve all seen enough examples to know even talented QBs can fail without support. But, without Drake’s talent and his own leadership, all of a sudden things aren’t going as well and the culture and buy-in doesn’t come so easy and the OC doesn’t look as good. Again, it looks like we’ve got all the right pieces right now. They’re all critical. Just enjoy it.

Do we really need to go down this road again??
Either Or is the best answer... don't forget the rest of this team + some outstanding coaching.
