Yeah, definitely never said that. Lots of small **** energy in this post. But feel free to find that post, Tubs. I’ll wait.
Belichick is a much better head coach than Rex Ryan in pretty much every possible aspect of the job.
Without a QB, not many coaches can succeed. Just brady wasnt the same guy 20 yrs ago , same holds for BB in cleveland . We bring up BB's records in cleveland but compare those to the current 20 yr experienced version of Brady. That too over 1 season. By this means, if Bruce Arians wwas our coach for the last 20 yrs, we wouldve done just fine. Right ?
The Packers are not on the same level, defensively, as the Saints. That said, I posted in this thread earlier in the season that they need to commit to the run. It takes the defense out of that Cover-2 Robber/Rat look that they were getting a lot during their struggles and makes the defense either have to go heavy, put a SS in the box, or get gouged.
I was talking stats and win/losses not really ability.
Brady was winning the SB his first year as a starter on a crap offense. And won 3 of 4 SBs in his first 4 years. No other QB has ever come close to this right out of the gate.
The result since the bye and the saints game prove their willingness to commit to the run. The TB pre bye wouldn’t have ran 35 times last Sunday, they would have air it out all over the place!
I agree with this. I am not sure they get to 9 wins with either Winston or Hill. Winston is a TO machine and won't be able to run the methodical Brees offense. Hill is just not a starting NFL caliber QB IMO. If they do go with him, I doubt he stays healthy all year.
yep this is what i’ve been saying. Brees screwed them over hard by saying he wanted to come back once he got word that Payton wanted to sign Brady. his ego wouldn’t let Brady sign there, break his records, and win a super bowl. Saints would have won the super bowl this year with Brady. that roster is stacked, and they would have found a way to manipulate the cap like they have been for years to get Gronk and/or AB
You think he wins that SB vs the rams without the pats defense ? He threw for 160 yards. Yes he deserves a big part of the win and the really the crucial part. But he isn't in that position without players like Law, milloy, mcginest vrabel playing out of their minds.Or the 2003 AFC Div game . they held the colts to 3 pts. In your mind it was just brady for the last 20 yrs and crap load of 52 other players doing nothing but waiting for tom to win the game for them. Did you think back in 2001 that he was going to play 20 yrs and become the Goat after watching the first superbowl?
Sure . Not debating the GM bill here. But BB coached that defense that year and the next 3 yrs. And its not like they didnt have issues. 2002 was the worst run D. But they fixed it in 2003. Once brady became brady they moved to a more offensive team with middling defense. Then with hightower draft and revis, it became a bit more balanced . So BB ,even with Brady at the helm hasnt had the same team or players or system or method of winning . Its wildly changed over the years as the need. Even with brady, they moved from regular PA offense to a wide offense in 2007 and back to a 2 TE offense after 2010. I dont believe it was brady who bought in all the changes. His greatness was to execute any system BB and josh and whoever got him to execute.
No QB ever wins alone, but Brady was the secret sauce for winning championships. As good as that defense was against the Rams, it was gassed by the end of the game and the Rams were on fire. If it went into and the Rams ever touched the ball they very likely would have won.
