The answer is BOTH. It took both the greatest coach of all time having the greatest quarterback of all time to produce the unprecedented success the Patriots had in this century.
The percentage is irrelevant. Neither would be what they eventually became without the other.
All evidence to the contrary good sir.
There is a long history of coaches who ere terrible head coaches but awesome coordinators.
How many times is this going to get posted?
Go look back and see how many teams that had a top 3 pick managed to turn their franchise completely around based on that one pick.
Most end up back in the top 5 or 10 again and it takes a few drafts to turn it around.
Tanking is not a cure for a bad franchise.
Someone took a huge gamble on him. That’s kind of how every draft pick is after round 1.
Yeah. The odds are better of winning powerball than BB being fired in season. I wouldn’t take odds of him being fired if he went 1-16 for the season.
Look. Brady was brilliant and all. But someone tell him this isn’t how it works.
Could?
Try it already is.
I see Mike McDaniel is on Reddit.
I love how this is all guys from the 2000 season and on.
I think Elway, Marino, Montana, Kelly, Unitas, Staubach, Aikman, Tarkenton, Starr would all like a word.
To me Mahomes and Allen are 1a and 1b at QB right now. And the next closest is Burrow.
The thing is. I’d trade Allen having the most whatever graded games and whatever records he has for rushing TDs etc for 2 Super Bowl titles Mahomes has. And he has time and all. But he’s got to start carrying the Bills to the promised land. That’s what matters.
I have to be honest. It was different then. There was no fantasy football. There was no constant daily reports and analysis on player performance. We watched professional football on Sunday afternoons and Monday night and that was it. And you usually only could see 3 maybe 4 games a week. 3 were televised in your area between 1 and 4. And then the Monday night game.
Also. And I am being honest so young folks don’t be offended. We weren’t so damn hyper judgmental about players. We gave them time to develop. Rarely did a guy flash immediately even first rounders. No one called for anyone’s heads after one bad game or one bad season. The attention span and patience level of todays average fan is so short it’s ridiculous.
But everyone also knew the Boys were bad at the end of the 80’s. Landry was trying to rebuild. But Jones after he bought the team in 89 had limited patience and wanted to get it turned around fast. Bringing in Johnson who promptly dumped their best asset and fleecing Minne in the process then drafting Aikman and being patient with him turned out to be right.
And just as Diggs made Allen a much better QB. Back then Aikman made Irvin better back then. Same as it ever was.
“More clarity”?
How about just stop trying to kill other players using your helmet dude.
