Patriots Fallout
-
Tom is as good as his offensive line- which is still incredible in pass protection. And a mighty good reason why he's not coming to Cleveland. Nah- I think Brady will stay in New England as long as he thinks he still want to play. Bob "Tom is like a son to me" Kraft will make sure of it.
Yet you can't name one of of his OL and ones that leave NE in FA... think Nate Solder... more often than not flop for their new teams. Why is that?
Brady sets his own line protection... is still nimble in the pocket... and still gets the ball out as quickly as any QB in the league. The rest is coaching. McD would have to promote Scarneccia to hire him away from the Pats, but it's be worth it to get him to come.
Lemme ask you something, how many Super Bowls has Belichick won without McDaniels? The answer is 0.
Not saying McDaniels is the sole reason...
Hope not since in 2001 McD was a mere "Personnel Assistant"...
I think the Haslams want him bad. Like PoG/Saquon bad.
That's twice you've gone fishing with that bait... maybe three is a charm.
Yet you can't name one of of his OL and ones that leave NE in FA... think Nate Solder... more often than not flop for their new teams. Why is that?
Because they're not actually good, they just never get called for holding because they play for the Pats. How many times have you seen Brady standing there forever and no one can get near him? And how many holding calls does his o-line get? Zero. Yet when they leave NE they turn into regular linemen. Must be a coincidence...

speaking of favoritism.... watching the Eagles play the Seahawks...
Wentz gets speared helmet to helmet and leaves the game. no call.
later, a defensive player Seahawks was it? shoves the Eagles back up qb to the ground after the play....
no call. Apparently, the refs are "letting them play". But does anyone believe if it were the Browns in the playoffs, and a couple of Browns players did exactly the same thing...it would be ok, too? They would be flagged/ejected/suspended/fined...whatever.
I don't get it. Ogunjobi got suspended for a game for a shove of a player to the ground after a play was over.

Just copied the part you got right...
Individually they are not talented, but as a unit the whole is much greater than the sum of the parts.
Every OL who engages a defender without throwing on them holds on every play... it's just a matter of whether they do it right. And right is defined by two things:
- Their hands are inside the frame of the defender, and
- The instant the defender tries to pull away they let go.
The second is the hardest thing to teach, but if you emphasize it in every practice and each individual learns that either one of his fellow OL will be there to cover for him, then they learn. Just need the right teacher.... and that's where Scarnecci comes in.
During his brief retirement Offensive Holding calls more than doubled. League average is around 23 per team per season and varies very little season to season. Pats had 30 in 2016 tying then for 3rd most (so much for conspiracy theories)... just finished with a 2nd best 13 this season.

Apples and oranges, cal... Ogun did it in the context of a fight when the refs were trying to gain control of an escalating situation.
The Wentz hit? I think it had a lot to do with the fact that Clowney was heading (no pun intended) in the same direction as Carson. In real time it did not look like a violent play. In slo-mo it looked more so... I expect Clowney will get a letter.

In my opinion, to reference a 20 game sample to indicate that BB is THE reason that NE is great is asinine.
That year of Cassel, although a good record resulted in no playoffs.
14-6 is 70%. Respectable for sure, better than most.
249-75 including playoffs. Or .769. And if you want to go Regular season, that is 219-64. Which is .774. And that is 30-11 in the playoffs, which is a .732 in the playoffs, you know against the best teams in the league. Which is 3.2% higher record than without.
To say TB12 isn't/wasn't a big reason for the Patriots success is ridiculous. Brady has more than TWICE the number of playoff wins than ANY quarterback not named Montana. And Joe is 1 win above above twice.

They ARE now the Las Vegas Raiders. have to get used to that. But I think it is more like 1000 to 1 that Brady would end up here.

got it, except, the nfl said the suspension was because Ogunjobi "might have re-escalated"...
and the other "could have escalated" into an all out brawl. But I get your point.

There's no doubt that TB12 was a major factor in the sustained greatness of the Pats 20-year run. There were seasons where they just flat outscored people like 2007 when Tom threw 50 TDs, but there were also seasons when they won with strong D, a running game and Game Manager TB at QB, e.g., 2003 and 2016.
In fact there were more seasons where Tom QB'd a Top 5 Offense (11) than the Pats fielded a Top 5 D (8). And while of their 6 SB wins only one came when they were not top 5 on at least one side of the ball, two wins came with only a Top 5 Offense, one with only a Top 5 Defense and two with Top 5 on both sides.
Also interesting is that out of the 6 SB seasons Tom was PFR's top AV (Approximate Value) Patriot 3 times. The other three times the top AV was a defender... Troy Brown, Ty Law and Dont'a Hightower.
Bottom line: I don't think either has to take a backseat to the other... plenty of room up front.

Call me crazy, but Tony Romo hinted it and I’ve felt the same way. Josh McDaniels is a northeast Ohio guy, went to John Carroll. He’s been interested in coaching the Browns for years, we just never gave him an interview. Now we are, and according to sources the Haslams want him, so the job is his if he wants it.
You heard Romo, Brady isn’t done. But he’s done with the Patriots, and is an unrestricted free agent. What did Tony Romo day? He needs help... Hmmm two 1,000 yard receivers and two Top 5 running backs sounds like help to me.
McDaniels wanted Baker in the draft. In fact, he was lobbying to trade up to #2 in the 2018 draft if we didn’t take Baker. His offense is complex though, and Baker needs to mature.
In comes Tom Brady for one more year with McDaniels, while Baker learns the offense.
Call me crazy, just watch.

You're not crazy, and yes Baker needs to mature....mature meaning stop saying stupid stuff at the microphone.
Some would argue McDaniels needs to mature as well. His stint in Denver didn't go well.
However, although I wanted Josh Allen, I do believe Baker has the tools to be a winner. Throw in McDaniels, hey maybe he cultivates it to the top.
The key to me is does McDaniels have a Defensive Coordinator in mind, that will attack? Our offense should be an easy fix, defense, well not so much.

3 things:
A: All NFL o-linemen know how to block properly and every NFL o-line coach knows how to teach that most basic o-line skill. To suggest that only Scarnecchia does is silly.
B: 2016 was the only season from 2009 when the Pats were anywhere close to the top of the league in offensive holding. Picking one season out of 12 doesn't disprove they don't get away with holding a lot. Also, 2016 was the year Scarnecchia returned, so there goes that theory that he's some sort of master blocking teacher.
?C-The stat doesn't tell us if it's o-linemen holding or someone further down the field. The Pats run a ton of screens, quick outs, and dump offs and their skill players get called for holding too. Also, the number of holding calls don't tell us how many more were MISSED or just not called.
I stand by my previous statement, the Pats o-line gets away with a ton of holding.

20 games is a significant sample size considering a season is only 16 games. People always say 'they didn't make the playoffs' but that was a statistical fluke. They're the only 11-5 team to miss since the playoffs went to 6 teams in 1990.
When Brady came back the next year they won 1 LESS game and MADE the playoffs.
According to the math the Patriots have won 7% more with Brady than a random replacement. And these were all ROOKIE replacements. Brady is only worth 7% more than a random rookie replacement? And this is with him having the benefit of years and years of experience playing with the team and the same coach and system the whole time while the rookies came in cold. That makes it way more favorable for Brady and he still does only 7% better. You made my case for me!
For contrast, the Colts with Manning won 68% and the year without him won 14%. You may think Brady is a good qb but to credit him for team success over Belichick simply isn't born out by the facts.

Except that when Brady has been out they've gone 14-6, and that was with 3 rookie qbs completely new to the system. When Cassel played for them and they went 11-5 he hadn't started a game at QB since high school. Belichode went 11-5 with a high school qb. And when Brady came back the next year they went 10-6. It's always been Belichick.
Conversely, when the Colts lost Manning they went from 10-6 to 2-14. There's the difference between a qb who matters and a qb who doesn't.
Sure....like I said, he would have good teams, occasional playoff teams. Not championship teams.
He can coach a defense, and he can be a good HC. Brady made him a Champion.
Or...are you going to say: Well, even if Tom Brady leaves, the Pats coached by BB will still be the odds on favorite to win the Super Bowl..or at least the AFC.
If so...then I would refer you to the words of that musical group from the Boston area who call themselves Aerosmith: Dream On.

They wouldn't be the odds on SB favorite because a lot of people think Brady was really important,. But I bet Belichick would win another without Brady and it wouldn't take too long. He's been waiting forever for Brady to go so he can prove he's the reason they win so much. The only reason Brady has been there the last few seasons is Kraft taking a break from handos to force Belichick to trade Jimmy and keep Brady. Brady didn't put Belichick over the top, Belichick carried Brady to a career his talent doesn't deserve in the least. No arm strength, no improvisational skill, no downfield accuracy. He's good at one thing: doing whatever Bill says, exactly how he says it.

Total NFL regular season penalty stats 2019
The team that had OH called on them the most, jacksonville, received this call under twice per game out of just under 64 offensive plays per game.
That's... not many.
Neither the Pats [nor anyone else] "Get Away With" anything. There is no documentation of the rate of any team's uncalled penalties... because they're not called. The rate of the Patriots' uncalled penalties is not higher than the rate of any other team's uncalled penalties.. because there's no proof that it is higher.
It may feel good to believe Patriots Conspiracies, but that doesn't mean they're actually a thing.
If Brady's fantasy nutritionist gets together with the Patriots' fantasy holding non-calls, Cleveland wins a Super Bowl in 2020!

And as far as Baker goes...
If he couldn't accept the GOAT starting ahead of him, then that's on him.
