You can't win a SB without a very good quarterback, but you need alot more than a very good quarterback to win consistently in the NFL. Belichick is the ARCHITECT (not just the coach) of a team that wasn't under .500 for a full decade, and has gone to 5 Super Bowls (and an AFCC) in 10 years. The entire roster has turned over other than Brady, and still the Patriots have gone to Super Bowls...

My memory is a little shady. Why wouldn't he start Tom Brady in the SuperBowl?
I know NE was based almost solely on defense and timely 3rd down conversions, and Brady was just a guy that took care of the ball, but who else would he have started? |

And I just started believing that until the last couple years when rules changed and QBs started routinely passing for 4,000+ yards. So anything before that doesn't apply now to that belief I have. It's a completely different game. For the worse I might add. Used to be you would win it all a variety of ways. ex: 200 ravens. Now? The only way I see it is to have a top 5 QB & a great HC. |
