It's looking more and more like Brady carried that duo far more than Bill did. 

I think this is a flawed way of viewing the BB/Brady split situation.

A big part of the reason that Brady wanted to leave in the end was because he knew the Patriots needed a talent re-fresh and he didn't want to waste his last couple years on that.  He went to an absolutely stacked TB team that then even brought in more talent on the cheap because they wanted to chase a ring with Brady.

The Patriots run was probably equally on both Brady and BB, for some reason people forget the defensive gameplays that BB has put together over the years to just completely neuter other offenses by constantly being able to take away their best weapon every week.

I haven't forgot that but part of the big problem with BB is toward the end, he wasn't giving Brady weapons. BB has been GM/Coach and part of those duties include the refreshing of talent. Defense is great, but since the NFL has shifted to more offense heavy, BB hasn't made that move. He also hasn't been very good at refreshing the talent. Having Brady there chasing rings made it much easier to bring in premium guys at a lower price tag. We view BB differently and thats cool. I consider BB a retread at this point in his career. 5 years ago, no. I think his prime coaching days have passed him by.

Would be cool, but there is nothing here for him to succeed with, can't think about the draft till 25 , have no elite vets 

And I am starting to think the biggest reason for his success was he had footballs version of Neo putting all the pieces where they needed to be(TB12)

I don't forsee anything good from him coming here , but he could do good somewhere with a franchise QB already in place though

LOL at people calling Belichick a "retread coach"

If there was ever a previous HC that couldn't be considered a "retread" it would be the best coach of all time.

It doesn't matter, as he's never coaching a game for anyone other than the Patriots, when he's done there, he's just done, it would be the weirdest thing ever to see him coach another team, he'll just move into some Patriots front office position.

Have you watched a Patriots game recently?

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies
