Aikman (Switzer)
Favre (Holmgren)
You're maybe being a bit hard on Holmgren, tho
Only getting 1 title after all those years with Favre seems sketchy for sure, but he also won a shitload of games between Green Bay and SEA, and his coaching tree is full of highlights [Reply]

I’m not making any grand conclusions for 8 games but to just hand wave all of Cheatriot problems aren’t Belicheat is being disingenuous at best.
Pretty sure all the dudes that opted out were on D. So that explains precisely 0.00% of the offensive problems. (I did the math).
All the dudes are his dudes. He picked all of the receivers ends and backs. Cam is his guy Stidham is his guy. OC is his guy. ST is his guy DC is his guy. No GM to blame the talent on. It’s him.
Plus the dudes that opted out, there is a pretty good chance that’s on him. Notorious hard ass dbag coach has the most players opt out? Coincidence?
He gets to take credit for the rings, he has to own the cheating and this seasons buttfuckery. We know, FOR A FACT, that it’s all Belicheat. No coordinator, assistant, personnel guy, no fucking nobody. It’s him. It’s all him. He has to wear this one. [Reply]

Agreed. I don't think people are being fair to BB and I don't like the guy. [Reply]
Brady was terrible last year. And it wasn't all his fault, he didn't have much weapons. But if you go from about the 20th best QB last year to a Top 5 QB this year on a team with elite weapons. You can see how important the system is to success. [Reply]

It's not just about this year.
It's about 20 years of dominance.
Brady was the Patriots. That ship has sailed. Bill won't win another ring. Bet on it. [Reply]
