Arguing that every call is a 20/20 hindsight call is something people here are even better at. But the reality is that a lot of people here really do talk about these players before the draft, during the draft, and during the time after the draft and before any NFL-level information has come...

I just think we should all be grateful that they signed this guy last year, instead of just extending Bogaerts...

That's fine That's a you problem. Every one of the coaches I mentioned has an argument. That you can't see, and acknowledge that, is another you problem. And your Walsh argument is ridiculous. Walsh won 3 titles in 10 years, and left when his team was on top.

You don't want either Cooks or Parker as a WR1. You hope that Thornton comes back in year 2 as the speed guy that Cooks would be, you see how much Meyers is asking for, and you look around to see if any WR1 type player is likely to be cut/traded.

Nobody in the Super Bowl era has ever had a Brady. That's the point. Even Walsh, with Montana, never had a Brady. So, to use your comp, Bill hasn't been a two-handed fighter forced to fight with one hand (and BB wasn't forced to do any such thing here in New England. He chose to do it), he's...

Not when you're talking about him as a head coach. Because those are Parcells' rings. You know this, so stop already That's nonsense. No, this is the NFL, where having Tom Brady has been a cheat code for 2 different head coaches. Lombardi, Brown, Walsh, Gibbs, Halas, Landry, Noll...

No. Horry wasn't a lead dog. That was a big part of the point with how bad the "logic" of the argument was. No, though I think Gibbs maximized the rules and play of game in his era as well as just about any have ever done it. Unfortunately for him, we saw the limitations of that when he...

He's been a tremendous success story. He's gone from not being an NFL level player in his first season to being a legitimate producer, regardless of whether or not he needs to be in a particular system (I'm not saying he does/doesn't, I'm just saying that it doesn't matter for the purpose of my...

Using that "logic", even without the blatantly dishonest attempt to pump up BB's ring numbers, Robert Horry is one of the 9 greatest players in NBA history, better than the likes of Kareem, Jordan, Cousy, Magic, Bird, Duncan, Kobe, etc....

About sums it up.

Nothing difficult to figure out... People were talking down Payton for multiple losing seasons in a row. In fact, BB had already long since accomplished such a feat. So let's recap: Tomlin bad because he's missed the playoffs and only has the one title Payton bad because he had losing...

So, if you take out an important part of Mayo's resume, which is that he played and has that inherent knowledge of the game, you personally give an edge to BB's kid. That's not saying anything except that you're stacking the deck. And don't get me wrong here, because I have no problem with...

Matt Patricia I don't believe that I claimed he was getting held back, but not having the DC tag does lower a coaches spot on the ladder, according to the NFL.

If the level of the QB matters, then every pro BB stat and comment should be starting with "But he had Brady....". And that's been a big part of the point of this exercise. BB without Brady is a sub .500 head coach, yet people here are saying things like "But Payton had Brees"/"But Tomlin...

Where's this theory coming from?

Belichick 3 year span: 6-10 7-9 7-9

Belichick has 7 losing seasons.

There is Tom Brady on one level, all alone, and there is every other QB who's played since Montana, on lower levels. People here say things like "People don't give Belichick credit for his wins" and the like, but they turn around an deride other top coaches for winning less with a lesser QB...

You are dogging Tomlin, and it's ridiculous.

Of course it is.
