Yeah, Bill, I did indeed check the resume. You lost to the Bears on primetime who BTW, have the 1st overall pick this year
proud coyote
Pats have been good for 25 years, consistently mortgaging their future and still finding ways to compete over and over
rustic mountain
Oh I am not saying they don't Juba and haven't
I just don't like the attitude
Especially when as of late, we have definitely not met expectations of having the greatest coach ever
dim kettle
The Pats are in probably the worst spot honestly. The way Bill drafts, he’s not gonna win enough to win SBs again and he’s good enough as a HC to win enough to not get high picks
Welcome to hell
proud coyote
This just reminds me of the Walsh narratives from 85-87 when we had three first round exits
rustic mountain
It feels really lame when people are like "hey there are genuine concerns about the team" and he goes "Shut up and look at my resumé"
proud coyote
ESP the third year where we got upset by the Vikings and Montana got benched in the playoff game
rustic mountain
Bill's drafts aren't the absolute atrocities that people say they are, but there have definitely been a lot of clunker picks that just hurt to look at. Hindsight is 20/20 but Nkeal Harry, Domique Easley, and what not really fucking blow
proud coyote
Is Patricia still the OC
proud coyote
Well, that’s not a bad hire
rustic mountain
I expect some improvement in the offense. Hopefully enough to be at least competitive
I think the draft will really be the defining piece. I honestly think if we have another miserable year, Kraft will make big changes
celest zephyr
Bill really pulled the "Check my resumé" card

The issue is that he isn’t a good enough gm to build a roster he can win with

We’re really are looking now how important Brady really was to the Pats compared to Bill. Not saying it’s right or wrong per se. I wouldn’t say it’s 100% right. But I wouldn’t say it’s 100% wrong either

I think it's partly we relied heavily on our tight ends and backs for such a long time that wide out was less of a need
Everyone talks about our wideout troubles but without Pat Mahomes, the Chiefs would be in the exact same boat
You do need threats, but you don't need Justin Jefferson or Stefon Diggs to win it all. In fact, teams who have won it all have only a couple times I can think of had those types on their team. Chiefs when they had Hill, Tampa with Evans and LA with Kupp
And even then only one of those teams dominated and that was Tampa because their D
celest zephyr
Yeah you just need solid wr’s
No Ned for the best WRs in the game
Especially since they cost so much
An elite qb also really makes a meh wr corps good
Honestly just having guys who are clutch, know their role and can make plays are all that teams need
Like the 49ers don’t have an amazing wr besides deebo
And even then he’s not that good of a pure threat
He’s more of a jack of all trades who’s the best at yac. Aiyuk is the closest to a true pure wr, but even still he’s far from the best at it
Chiefs also have kelce who is a big time weapon
If anything I’d argue he’s their biggest reason besides mahomes and reid why they are so successful
Clearly they are clicking without hill, but they’d definitely have taken more of a step back if they lost kelce instead
And tbh all of those teams had at least a good qb
Stafford is the worst, but he still was at worst like a top 10 qb in the league
Brady is obviously one of the best all time and mahomes is incredible
Tbh the wr meta right now is kinda overrated. Like good wideouts are nice, but they haven’t proven to be able to carry a team without already having a good qb
But they are paid so much that they should be close to that

The trenches are where I’d look at first, outside of qb. Then move to skill positions in corners and receivers
Offball linebackers aren’t worth the amount of investment put in for high draft picks.
celest zephyr
Kittle is a mismatch
Oh i know but they aren’t WRs
And also the 49ers did well without cmc as their rb
Kittle i agree his blocking is vital
Trenches yeah for sure
O line men d line men
dim ledge
Aiyuk is very much hitting his stride/coming into his prime/etc
We cant sleep on his quality solely based on the fact that hes not doing DaVante Adams things yet
I even think theres a chance that we keep him over Deebo if things come down to it
and i think this season will be vital to that decision
celest zephyr
No i’m merely saying that he’s good but he’s not as good right now as like Stefon or Ty reek.Like I love the guy, he ain’t top 10 right now though
I’m very happy with Aiyuk right now after the season he had
In fact its more saying that teams don’t really need to pay such a good wr that much
Considering it limits how much they can spend on other areas
Cuz at least RBs and tes can block
In both pass and run situations
Another factor is Aiyuk plays more games
Deebo just gets injured too much
Yep Aiyuk would also be cheaper to pay

Don’t think he deserves to be in there forever either
Delicate topic. Easy for me to say, you know.
rustic ore
I mean he's not facing life in prison
If he was hit with the maximum on everything he'd be looking at 52 years all together
And since he's 24 now he'd be getting out in his 70s. If I were a betting man I'd say between 26-36 is where it'll land for him
So out between him being 50-60
rustic ore
Nothing really, it's just a tragic, heartbreaking situation all around
As far as I know Ruggs didn't have any issues off the field in college and prior to that accident was clean as a whistle
But sometimes all it takes is 1 mistake to ruin 1 or in this case multiple lives
Young woman died a horrific death, talented young man threw away a promising career that could've given his family generational wealth and will now spend a large portion if not the majority of his remaining life in prison, Ruggs infant daughter will grow up without a proper relationship with her father, and a family was robbed of their own daughter because Ruggs decided to get drunk and drive his car recklessly

I’d say the majority of even good defenses probably don’t even stack to past decades for the most part. Honestly, the NBA really needs to fix that part of the modern game in general. Defense needs the freedom too.

I fully agree. Defenses just aren’t given enough options
They don’t but also yeah don’t want the dead ball era either
Because that’s just atrocious basketball
My biggest issue is the ease at which teams can score 130+ points a game
It happens so often now that at least one team scores that much in a game
Like there were two games where both teams scored over 130 points
Each
About 110 points per game on average isn’t good but it ain’t that bad. This is far worse
simple seal
It's harder to defend 3 pointers too
When a team gets hot from 3 they are basically unstoppable

celest zephyr
When a team gets hot from 3 they are basically unstoppable
