so how do you feel about Seattle when their guys got post-rookie contracts, or KC once they’ll have to pay mahommes again?
y’all know qb is not the only position? Y’all know every pats sb team has a good defense?
Due to Brady’s below market contract and willingness to play without $30M invested in his top two targets, the Patriots were always able to field a good defense. It was a symbiotic relationship between Brady and Belichick. That’s “the secret sauce” in its simplest explanation. Better cap allocation. If the QB makes receivers and linemen better, save that money and spend it elsewhere.
As for the Seahawks and Chiefs, they’ve overpaid the crap out of superstars and neither QB is taking less. But even with those problems, they’re going to be be playoff contenders each year because of the QB position.
You need an elite QB…then you get into how to allocate the remaining funds.
