Parity?

From year to year you can't expect that much parity. Over a 5-10 year stretch it's pretty damn good. The bottom dwellers of the AFC screw everything up though. Who would have thought IND, CIN, MIN, WAS and SEA would have made the playoffs this year?

I can't wait for the Pats to crash and burn after Brady retires.

Negative. 3 out of the 4 teams from last years championship games are in the championship games this year.

The reason for that is those teams aren't drafting so to make the playoffs the following year like the panthers do every year. They draft to add depth. So it's hard to de-throne them. They have plenty of time to be patient and scout well. Unlike the panthers that goes for the first Mel Kiper hype every year that end up busting. Plus those organizations with their coaches understood early on what the most important positions were: OFFENSIVE LIVE and QUARTERBACK. It doesn't matter what order they come: JUST GET IT DONE.

Those teams don't try to fix everything in one draft. They fix major weakness all in one draft. I remember NE a draft or two ago went all out on defense. Now look at their defense. Mediocre coachs/GMs, like Rivera, draft one position each every year and never get anywhere.

If Belichick were hired to coach this team you'd imagine the first thing he'd do is draft all O Line this year and have them compete in camp to stabilize the offense. With the Depth, the following year he'd look at the WR core. In 2 years we'd have a top 5 offense. Not the gimmicky top 5 offense where the QB is running and throwing the ball incessantly because they're playing from behind.

It's not rocket science. Some of those coaches/GMs are dumb ex-players that got hit too much in the head. They are stuck in their old ideology. They can't see the bigger picture. They all believe all they need to do is "run the ball" so they can keep their job.

It took those morons over 100 years to figure the read option could be as effective as the play-action-pass. A very similar play, where instead of throwing it in a play-action-pass the QB run it instead. Pretty much it's a play-action-run. You notice that simple little 'innovation' was figured out in an academic institution while the simpletons in the NFL proclaimed it could never work in their 'sophisticated' league.

Remember how dumb those jocks were in high school? Yep! They're the ones managing your organization for you. You think Rivera was a smart thinker in HS? Lol

They won't crash and burn. Brady doesn't make the team. Put any average player behind that O Line and ask them to make a bunch of quick passes and they will succeed. Remember Mall Cassell? Brady is no elite talent. Brady is no Cam or Kaepernick. Brady is no game changer. Just lock the receivers down and Brady is meaningless. Put things in perspective people.

      Player Led culture vs Staff Led

      By panthers55 · Posted

      The difference is about how much player input is allowed and encouraged in the decision making process. Top down teams tend to dictate to players how everything is handled. Disagreements are handled by the coach and players are expected to do what they are told regardless of what they think or feel.  Players are perceived as commodities to be used until we find better. In player led teams player input is encouraged and valued. Players and especially leaders are expected to settle their own disagreements and be accountable to the team but mostly to each other. Players are family to be appreciated and supported in their growth. Is the reality of football the same in both? Yeah there are limited positions, football is a business and winning is the bottom line. Coaches get final say and run the program because that is their job. But in player led teams they feel valued, appreciated, part of a larger whole. Most people who have worked at multiple jobs know exactly what I am talking about. When players try to run the show and don't value  coach input that isn't a player led team, that is a circus which we surely are familiar with in our past.

      Seems to be the consensus from the talking heads. I really wish we had double dipped at center in the 2nd round. Sion will never play in the league.
