New England came into this season with 6 or 7 guys opting out and obviously no Brady. Then Cam gets COVID which sets back his development in the system. So they lose to a bad Denver team at home and have a losing record in October or later for the first time since since 2002.
Belichek and McDaniels are still there. But when you lose a bunch of players that matters over schemes.
Same thing applies to the Cowboys. No matter how good or bad you think the new staff is, there is no accurate barometer because 10 starters are on IR.
How do you teach a new defensive scheme with practice squad players and think you can get a true evaluation of how effective it is?
Offensively Dalton for a full game behind 2 backup tackles is scary. Perhaps they’ll overcome and everything will be great. But if they don’t, don’t immediately go blaming McCarthy and Moore.
New England is showing THIS ISNT MADDEN where you just need the right play call regardless of personnel.
