finn Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 I'm not a big fan of "what If? history, but as a thought exercise the notion sheds light on the two coaches' abilities. Under Belicheck, the Bills would more likely win tonight because they would be disciplined, focused, innovative, responsive and prepared. Under Ryan, the Patriots would more likely choke because they would be distracted by his grandstanding, take stupid penalties and play right into Belicheck's schemes. (The Bills would also be more likely to win with Belicheck because they would cheat.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnC Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 Rex Ryan predictably wins the contest at the podium. Bill Belichick predictably wins the contest on the field. If you want to garner attention Ryan is the man for the job. If you want to garner wins BB is the man for the job. From a coaching standpoint Ryan is a pygmy compared to BB.

finn Posted November 23, 2015 Author Share Posted November 23, 2015 "Please. Belichick was a dead man walking before Brady pulled his ass out of the fire." I disagree. I think Belichick has it figured out, and he happens to have a Brady. It happens (e.g., Montana/Rice). Belichick shut down the K-Gun single handedly. That Giants team wasn't in the same league as the Bills, especially their defense against the Bills offense, yet they won the game. I think he would have figured out how to slow down Brady, while improving the odds with discipline, etc. Ryan, meanwhile, hasn't shown anything on this team. He appears to be a fool.

OhDozeBills Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 If BB was the coach of the Bills, we'd most likely have a super bowl ring or two by now. We would have been caught for cheating (spy gate). NFL fans outside Buffalo would despise us. Tom Brady wouldn't be as good as he is without BB. My guess is Brady would be on the level like Rivers or Romo in terms of production. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

midland Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 When you have a probowl type quarterback coaching is always easier, and coaches that have the fortune to have a great quarterback always win more. Before Brady, he was an average coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
