Jon, u and I go way back as Patriots fans — and we know what is worse than irrelevance — how many toilet bowels have we watched (or listened to because our team was blacked out)? The dynasty had to end at some point — BB just isn’t letting it end with a series of 3-14 seasons (like the rest of the recently revived afc east did over the last 2 decades). A new coach doesn’t promise us anything other than a dismantling of the team and a very uncertain future. Might as well let BB try to rebuild and see where it goes and allow him to set the win record as the Patriots coach — he has earned it in spades. And for those “it was all Brady” types like the the truck driver with the penchant for playing GM and drafting WRs with 6 of 7 draft picks every year — please wake up. Three of the SBs were defense led — Brady contributed for sure, but the defense led. And that’s not saying anything about the two SB losses to the Giants, where the defense gave up 17 & 21pts respectively. So if it was always all Brady, then these 2 brutal losses should go on him exclusively right? This argument is as stupid and shortsighted as the “it was all Brady” position. And I say this as both a Bostonian and Michigan alum who is predisposed to root for Brady (at least while he is wearing a UMichigan or Patriots jersey)… Anyway, thx for the show and the guests u bring on — much appreciated… PS: Place me among the crowd that would not hand Lamar Jackson $200-250M guaranteed given his play-style, injury history & playoff record — just because the Browns were stupid doesn’t mean the Patriots or other teams have to follow…
Go Pats!
