I'm old enough to remember Belichick's Browns teams in the 1990's. They had a good defense because that's his specialty but they were never consistent winners. That's why he got fired there.
And I don't think it's coincidence that the Patriots are what now, 29-37 since Brady left. Not saying it's all on Belichick but it's possible Brady carried him and the game has passed him by.
Maybe the game has passed him by; it happens to everyone
BUT I ask YOU this question?
In 2001 Tom Brady was a bus driver.
So I guess that means that SB was a fluke?
Does Tom Brady decide the roster
Does Tom Brady do the draft?
Does Tom Brady do the FA?
Does Tom Brady hire the coaching staff?
Anyone thinking it was even mostly brady for twenty years is a football moron
