stuvian Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 Sorry but I'm just not buying into BB forgetting how to coach football. Handy loving, casino owning Kraft is not above anything either. I can't rule out a well designed flop to set the table for mullet wearing, snot licking Hoodie junior. 2 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramza86 Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 Makes more sense than them being worse offensively than they were last year with Patricia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Hindsight Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 I don't think BB has it in him to tank. They are just a bad team that bad personal decisions have finally caught up to them 2 1 15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uninja Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 You honestly think that BB would willingly tank a season to set up his kid and not chase the all time wins record from George Halas? BB has 299 wins and needs 20 more to beat the record. He's gunning for it and you better believe it. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fleezoid Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 Not buying he's tanking. This is exactly Bill Belichick coaching abilities outside of Brady. I'll give him the HOF simply due to the number of Super Bowls, but GOAT?? No freaking way. 3 1 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gregg Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 I don't think they are tanking either. But if they are I hope they miss out on Caleb Williams who is supposed to be the #1 pick in 24 draft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnBonhamRocks Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 This thread reminds me of what I read this morning: New England decided to punt to NO from the NO 40 on 4th & 3 with 9:48 remaining in the 3rd while losing 0 to 24. With a Surrender Index of 39.71, this punt ranks at the 99.6th percentile of cowardly punts of the 2023 season, and the 98th percentile of all punts since 1999. 1 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaattMaann Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 No they just suck because BB isnt a good GM and his talent is depleted, especially on offense. Tom Brady made BB. BB is a good defensive coordinator, bad at everything else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are enough good QB’s in the AFC as it is. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May Day 10 Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 I agree that it isnt Belichick's DNA to tank... and you also have players and other personnel who are highly competitive and jobs and money are on the line. They are a bad team. This has been festering for a few years since they blew their cap money and got nothing for it, drafting low-ceiling Mac Jones and ruining him with terrible coordinators, and further rotting of the roster. Add in the fact that 3 of the top 10 teams in the league reside in their division (when Rodgers is in) it is a disaster. You do not need to tank for the top QB. Top QBs are not an exact science. There are many QBs with the physical traits and a lot has to do with nurture over nature at this point. A large part of it is what is between the ears. A top drafted QB in New England does not scare me at all because BB will continue to go the internal/comfortable route for coordinators, draft poorly, resist getting top receivers, and everything else. Brock Purdy You can also shortcut and find good QBs on FA or trade these days and even reclamation projects. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Process Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 You don't have to tank when you have a roster as bad as theirs. Almost zero above average players on that team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DapperCam Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 (edited) No way, they just suck, and now they have injuries on top of it. Bad times in Patsland, you hate to see it… Edited October 12, 2023 by DapperCam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Otreply Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 The entire Pats organization is completely on board with tanking if it suits their needs, they as a whole have been busted repeatedly over multiple decades for cheating, what makes anyone think they would not do this if it suited them???
