And it made one-eighth the difference.

It’s always worth noting that Coughlin massively toned all that poo poo down while also softening his approach a bit (From full :byodood: all the time to just some of the time) in 2007 and basically every player on the team said it made a big difference in how that season played out.

Yeah, and he only won two Super Bowls!

Meanwhile Belicheck won six Super Bowls solely by being an rear end in a top hat! And by good coaching, having solid teams, having Tom Brady as QB, not actually being that gruff an rear end in a top hat to his players, and some cheating, but it was totally 90% being a dick that won those Super Bowls

If anything, Joe Judge losing the team means he’s not being a big enough dick. That’s not how you establish The Patriot Way!

Yeah, Belichick's rear end in a top hat persona gets exaggerated sometimes, but it seems like most of his ~coaching tree~ just goes for MAXIMUM rear end in a top hat and eats poo poo in 1-3 seasons.

It's extremely funny. What must the coaching meetings be like for it to have spawned this many guys who all hosed it up so bad.

it is hilarious that almost every belichick coaching disciple has tried to replicate his success by replicating his personality, and flores is the first person to actually replicate the scheme and roster building philosophy instead and instantly turned around the dolphins

I’m pretty sure Vrabel’s won as many playoff games as HC as the entire Belicheck coaching tree combined at this point.

Vrabel being a good coach is so fun considering how poorly actual coaches from the Belichick tree have faired so far, tho Flores is the current outlier (good for him tho!).

I'm kind of surprised the Vikings are doing that poorly, not what I would've expected. Not even trying to divisional trash talk, they've generally been pretty good about keeping things in order as an organization.

It comes down to who is holding out: Specifically, Cousins, Thielen, Smith, and the other two unnamed starters. They're team leaders, and so long as the starters are dealing with all the hurdles the NFL has set up to encourage players to get vaccinated, players who might otherwise give in to the pressure are going to look up to them and follow their lead. I'm sure the Vikings org is doing everything they can to get folks vaccinated, and Zimmer is obviously exasperated with the situation and with his players—but when it's the team's starting QB with a fully guaranteed salary leading the charge, there's only so much they can do.

Mike Zimmer looked like Cotton Hill in one version of Madden, so I’m in favor of him shooting fitty men instead, even if it costs him his shins.

Drew Brees has 8 playoff wins with 1 Super Bowl, and Tom Brady has played in the NFC exactly one year, so do that math

Guys it's AGAINST NFC teams, of course they wouldn't count Brees' SBs because those were against AFC teams, the same reason they didn't count the Bucs SB win for Brady.

The point that's being made is that Brady has won against more NFC teams because he's won 6 superbowls against NFC teams with the Pats and then 3 playoff games against NFC teams with the Bucs. Brees has been in the NFC and "only" won 8 games against NFC teams.
