What is New England plotting with their 60M of cap space?

they get to be the gold standard because they had brady for 20 years.
that allowed them to have a lot of cap advantages and drafting advantages other do not.
that doesn't deter from the fact that their the gold standard. Yap great QB's do that for a team.We got ours

He will still be winning if he doesn't have Brady. Has done it before. I just don't think he will keep going without him.
Belichick's record before (or without) Tom Brady. In CLE and his one year in NE w/ Bledsoe, check in out some time.
Truth is. after a 5-11 first year w/ the Patriots in 2000 then an 0-2 start in 2001. Belichick was going to get canned.
Bledsoe get hurt Week 3, Brady comes and 4 months later Belichick is hoisting a Lombardi Trophy.
And you're telling me Brady had little to do with it; BB would've won anyway?
Based on this, you can clearly make a point that Brady made Belichick.
Interesting how no one ever says Phil Jackson "made" Michael Jordan even though Phil won FIVE more rings after he left Chicago.

Falling back on 3 SBs over a decade ago is exactly my point.........it gave them the leeway to gamble and those gambles have mostly backfired....they are gifted a trip to the AFCCG game every year and only have 2 miracle SBs to show for it........they even blew their 19-0 season and have the same amount of Lombardis as lucky Eli in the last decade

It is like @waldoputty is saying , they are trying to make it harder on themselves out of boredom

LMAO at "gifted."
Gee, you're right; essentially the Patriots = the Bengals.
This post is so whiny it's absurd.

And I care about what you think?????? Nope, sure don't

Nice use of your second post........ a 3 month old thread about the Pats on a Cowboy board

You need to really look at what Belichick did in CLE before you come out saying that nonsense.

Belichick will retire when Brady retires IMO. Belichick knows he wouldn't of accomplished anything remotely close to what he has without Brady. Not to say he couldn't of been successful in NE, but he wouldn't of went anywhere in the playoffs without Brady let alone the superbowl.
