The line about other QBs winning Super Bowls if they were with Belichick

The keys to the brilliant Brady-Belichick partnership can be...

There is NO way a guy like Rodgers or Fivehead would allow themselves to be coached like this by BB. Not a chance.

Thus not a chance they’d win a bunch of titles on this team if they were QB instead of Brady. Despite what you might hear from people who don’t know any better.

Whoops there’s a paywall. You can read it with the app though

Either way it’s still true.

I here some fans say Manning would win 7 or more with Belichick

Brady offenses average 27ppg in the Super Bowl.

Manning’s averaged 16.

Maybe it’s brilliant strategy to have your defense getting its ass kicked and abandon all offensive balance late in the game hoping the QB saves you.

Because that’s how the Patriots win Super Bowls more often than not. And “other” Quarterbacks don’t win in those situations as this article points out.

”The Patriots are 15-7 (.682) when Brady passes the ball 50 or more times, including the postseason. Every other team in modern NFL history (since 1960) has combined to go 100-386-6 (.209) in this situation. The Brady Patriots have singularly won 13 percent of all the 50-attempt victories during the past 55 years of professional football. Lamonica, by the way, never attempted 50 passes in a game.

Victory in these bombing campaigns is difficult for two reasons: First, it’s usually a sign of desperation. Most NFL teams tend to pass the ball that often only when they’re down big. Second, desperate quarterbacks tend to throw interceptions, sometimes multiple. And teams simply don’t win when they throw interceptions.

Brady and the Patriots, however, are utterly unique in their ability to win these games: Brady is the career leader in 50-attempt games (22), 50-attempt wins (15) and 50-attempt winning percentage (.682).

Nobody else is close.

Peyton Manning is second with 17 50-attempt games, and he’s just 4-13 (.235) in those contests."

Two of NE’s Super Bowls required over 50 pass attempts for a late come back (SEA and ATL). Another was darn close with another shoot out (CAR 48 passes for a late victory with the NE defense giving up 18 points in the 4th quarter). And 2001 required over 50 passes to get out of the divisional round. That’s 4 Superbowls that don’t happen without heroics in passing that even a great QB like Manning doesn’t pull off.

So most likely “another” QB on this team manages 1 SB in 2004 and doesn’t even get to most of the others.

Yep, that's one of Brady's #1 traits.

The willingness to be coached. I could never see Peyton/Rodgers co-existing with Belichick.

How anyone can wrap their head around the entirety of this hypothetical or want to is beyond me.

But hey we don't have to. We got Brady and belichick. Don't need to sprain a brain cell puffing up someone else's dorky dink take. And no I didn't download the aaaaaap..
