Why does it feel like Goodell and the Patriots are running the NFL?

Bottom Line with the Patriots organization is they have a win at all costs mentality. Winning cultures breed winning while losing cultures breed losing (looking at you, Brownies). If starters go down for the Pats, it's expected their backups play at elite levels. They go into every game thinking they are going to win. There's a reason they could plug in a dude like Matt Cassell and go 11-5. This attitude won't change until ol' Bill steps down at the very least.

so mark me down as #5 on this board that agrees that the pats are a true dynasty.
kraft, brady, belichick. first ballot HOFers guaranteed.
fuck this cheating crap. you could call holding on every play of the game. the DBs are getting killed by these new rules and we're worried about deflategate or spycam?
how about hiring a head coach and staff, staying with them for more than 3 years and seeing where that leads?
oh and btw, who was smart enough to hire a fired head coach and the brown's HOF TE as GM. that's right kraft.

I don't think it was ever an issue that they are a true dynasty. Clearly they are. The issue was whether or not people hated them, or admired them.

TB, BB certainly. Kraft a little tougher call.

Many or most think they cheat. Many or most think they could win a lot without cheating. It is the hubris of them that begets scorn.

Does that include the DC? I agree with you except for keeping the Browns DC.

The Jets hired BB before the Pats.....but he quit after one day.
And the last time I looked....Kraft did not own the Ravens.
(are you saying that Kraft did a Robert Irsay/Caroll Rosembloom type franchise trade?)

Bottom line is that the Patriots have Tom Brady. Everything else was superfluous. Sure, Cassell could hold the fort and do well for one year. I suggest that is they had to play him any more than that the Pats would have sunk into mediocrity.

Actually....he didnt quit....the Pats traded their first round pick to the Jets for him......

I think Im the only guy in the world who actually likes the Pats and admires their ability to win year after year after year....
In my eyes, the greatest dynasty ever......

semantics.....Pats gave up a first round pick to the Jets.....for????.......Billy Boy....
Not semantics. BB quit....as we said. The thing though was, even though he resigned, the Jets still had his contract rights. Though he could not be forced to be the HC of the NYJ.....he couldn't be the HC of any other team while the Jets held his rights.....until and unless that other team, in the case the Pats, gave compensation to the Jets to allow BB out of their contract with them.
The Jets extracted a first round pick to allow BB to sign with the Pats.
In researching it I found this:
The first round pick acquired by the Jets was used to trade up by the Jets with San Fran to take DE Shaun Ellis....who played 10 years with the Jets but ironically finished his career with New England.
The Pats pick was used by the 49ers and they took LB Julian Peterson our of Mich. St. He too played for like 10 years for the 49ers, Lions and Seahawks.
That pick....given by the Pats to the Jets in 2000 was #16 overall pick......but don't cry for Argentina Patriots. They took another guy that year with #199 that has turned out to be pretty good.

The Pats wanted Billy....the Jets had his rights....the Pats gave the Jets a first round pick.....for Billy.....end of story.

Its not really semantics. You said he didn't quit. The video clearly shows him saying he's resigning as the coach of the Jets (after 1 day). The Jets were able to prevent him from coaching anywhere else, so the Patriots had to give up compensation in order for him to be released from the Jets control since he had a contract with them.

All I remember about the Patriots & Their Refs(I quit watching cheaters). In our last meeting, we got screwed by their Mass. home officials/Goodell. And we broke Gronks leg (opssie sure we got fined). Still playing with a limp? or is that a Roger approved knee brace?

If the Browns had the track record of the Pats the last 15 years most here, including me, would be unbearable apologists and staunch supporters of the dynasty.
