People are about to find out that the most important component of The Patriot Way is tripping over a GOAT quarterback in the 6th round.

I’m really interested to see how Belichick does it this season. He took Matt Cassell to 11 wins.

That was also coming off the heels of perhaps the most talented team in NFL history that went 18-0 and while they didn’t win the super bowl, that doesn’t stop them from being the most talented ever.

Sure that te wasn’t going to be as good the next year, but it was still only one year removed from the best team assembled in the last 30 years. Cassel did a lot of good things for them that season, and Hoodie did a lot as well. But that team was extremely talented. Let’s not pretend Bellicheck and Cassel piloted the 1996 Jets to 11-5 and a playoff berth that year.

I fully expect the Patriots with even below average QB play to compete for a division title this year. But they are cap strapped and after this season when they go 8-8 or worse, the mystique of the Patriots will fall away and they will fall apart, provides they don’t luck into another great QB in the next couple of drafts

I would think (and hope) that if they have a couple bad years, or not what they're used to, Belichick will also bolt. Twenty years is a long time or an NFL coach in one place, it's a pretty short list--Landry, Shula, maybe missing one or two from way back.

We don't have 3 CBs good enough to care about.

Lions fire Patricia and GM

[Libero_2]

Yet another HC out on his derriere before Gase.

Lions fire Patricia and GM

don't freak this up on Black monday, Christopher Johnson. 

[bojanglesman]

Jets hire Matt Patricia as HC.

[Johnny English]

Jets hire Matt Patricia as HC.

No chance we'd do something so stupid. It will be Bill O'Brien as HC and Matt Patricia as DC.

Wrong. It'll be Gase as HC, O'Brien as OC and Patricia as DC

Which is a freaking joke. As dysfunctional as the Lions are, they even see the writing on the wall, while are buffoon owners keep this bag of excrement around. I honestly believe it's a money thing. They don't want to fire him and have to pay him the remainder of the year

[bojanglesman]

No reason to fire Gase now.  That time was at the bye.  Let him commandeer the tank.

[Johnny English]

Lions cut their punter for calling his own fake punt yesterday.
