Agree on the Kraft thing. He stepped in shit big time on his way to fucking up the Pats. Belichek & Brady are what they are. I'm still not convinced that there isn't an underhanded factor to their success.
3 Run plays and chew up the clock and Beli's timeouts, kick field goal. Don't need much brainpower to figure that out! Giant's screwed up big time and no one is calling them on it champ.
This is a very good example of good game management, I bet if you reverse the situation, Bellicheat would do exactly what you highlighted. The interception that was dropped by the Giants safety is another example of opportunities that they did not capitalize on. That's why I said Bill does not do anything that no other coach can't do. He is a very conservative HC, that plays the field position game and waits for the opposition to make a mistake.
Tom Brady. Swap him and Fitz this year, and keep everything else the same. The Jets would be winning the AFC East this year.
Your comparing our owner's brain power to Krafts? What, are you making a WoW character or something. The only difference between us and and the Pats is Belichick and Brady. That's it. There is no f-cking Patriot way or special infastructure they have. They lose both those guys and that dynasty vanishes like a fart in the wind. Bowles may not be Belichick but he deserves a couple of years to prove what he can do. We shouldn't be comparing or contrasting this organization with such critical new hires.
It is not Bellichicken and Brady, it is Brady period. Bellichicken is nothing without Brady. Bellichicken stunk for 5 years with the Browns, was 6-10 in 2000 with the Pats (with Brady on the bench), and missed the playoffs in 2008 when Brady got hurt. His record without Tom Brady starting stinks.
Belichick won a playoff game with the Browns, and had something good building before Modell announced the team was moving. he also won 11 games in 2008 w/o Br*dy. If Br*dy were drafted by any other team, he wouldn't have amounted to anything imo..
Well who do hire Champ? Other than BB who is out there? Ron Revera? Marvin Lewis? Pete Carrol(sorry he was already here) How about Nick Saban ...? there's a Contract Mac will like lol Frankly I don't see anyone who's a football genius..besides Bellishit jus coaches with good players
We are a nation of almost 300 million I'm sure amongst all of that gene pool another Belly exists if we seek hard enough to find him
Well.... at least he got two HOFers to help him pick out the employees this time. So he is learning how to spread the blame around!
Sadly the following is the current representation of the Patriots vs the Jets during the Brady / Bellichik era: Patriots Jets At least until we can knock them out of the playoffs.
Going against another team, I would agree with that strategy. When you are playing against a guy like Brady you don't try to settle for FG, you try to go up by 7 Even had the Giants ran the ball all 3 times, they would have still have to give the ball back to Brady with over a min left. That is plenty of time for him to get his team into FG range. We have seen him do that so many times.
The underhanded factor is that our owner,HC & GM passed over TB every time it was our turn to pick a player
