How do we get that Patriots level execution?

[Xeven]

Even when Patriots lose, 95% of the players look sharp and masters of their position. They execute almost perfectly play after play. Every player seems to know the technique to use for each situation and mistakes are rare.

What are they doing that could help Dallas improve? It is not all Brady though having a vet in the pocket certainly helps.

Garret going on 10 years, is he really not preparing for every team and not adjusting during the game or what?

Every team in the NFL would like to know how to be more like the Patriots

Fire Garrett

It's pretty clear, look at the one consistent thing they have had over the years to go along with Brady the GOAT. We don't have that, ain't even close. Sam Darnold made our defense look high schoolish and yet he looked like a high schooler against the Pats D.

You need a guy like this without the Jones Family.....

Belichick has forgot more about coaching than Garrett will ever know.

 

[Sarge]

I think 99% of us know the answer to this.

When you have Garrett you get this for a team.....

 

[Tangle_Foot]

It starts at the top, when your owner/GM makes a statement that he's looking for reasons to keep his head coach it tells me that he doesn't want to make a change. Why? Does he like Garrett? Does he feel comfortable with Garrett? Does he have a problem admitting his hire was wrong? Does he not want to win a championship?

An owner/GM need only look for one thing in his staff, and that is proficiency. From head coach to ball boy, this wealthiest franchise in sports should want the very best that money can buy.

How do you find another Belichick? I don't know it's possible.

In many ways I think most people take Belichick for granted because we are living in his era. Sorta like being a college basketball fan during the John Wooden era.

As good as we realize he is today, we are going to look back 20 years from now and acknowledge how utterly amazing he (and Brady) have been.

They just picked up Mohamed Sanu for 2nd rounder, good, I was wondering how they could become competitive.

Dear Jerry,

Coaching matters. You have a mediocre head coach (results prove it) and have had nine seasons to see it. It takes an excellent coach to win in the playoffs. You cannot be serious about winning a super bowl again with a mediocre head coach.
The truth hurts Jerry. But it’s better than continuing to live a lie.

Sincerely.
A Cowboys fan who doesn’t buy your product until things change

They have a culture that uses everything they can think of to get better. Their personnel dept is always looking to improve the roster. They coach every detail. Always be improving, always adjusting, no stone unturned. We are good, but no one does it like the patriots.

JUST DO YOUR JOB AND DO THE SMALL DETAILS.

Anybody notice last night the loophole that allowed Belichick to run 2.5 minutes off the clock by continuously taking delay of game penalties (and the Jets kept declining them)?

Belichick admitted during his press conference that its something the NFL is going to need to fix....

 

[Bullflop]

Jerry loves to pass himself off as a football guy, who wants to win but isn't willing to do what it takes to get there. Unfortunately, it requires hiring a head coach who's willing to think for himself, free of an owner who's compelled to dictate everything he does. They also hire capable GMs.

It's a crying shame that Jerry could never live with that. Good owners hire the right people and allow them to be themselves, rather than mere puppets of an egocentric control freak. It'll likely remain that way, barring a change of mystical proportions.

Get ride of the country club system that JJ runs.

There is a lot of fanfare with the cowboys being America's team with all sorts of aristocracy and I think this hinders them. Also teams go the extra mile to want the beat America's team The Patriots are completely different; they are built out of practicality and true grit after many year of embarrassing losing seasons; there is very little fanfare and they don't have an owner that comes down to the field to micromanage the coach. They also got rid of AB immediately when they smelled trouble and they don't mess around with problem players that linger on the team creating a cloud over their heads (the Cowboys have had too many of those). The Patriots part ways with problem players and move on with confidence of training a new player to their successful system.

Start with GM, and work your way down.

I agree with everything you said, except the last sentence. Don't fool yourself, AB is still in play, once the smoke clears.
