Is Tom Brady over-rated?

Seems like whomever the Patriots play at quarterback the team wins. So maybe Brady isn't as great as everyone believes. Maybe it's Bill Belichick and his system with all the right players following his plan. Maybe Jay Cutler would be a superstar if he were with New England. image

    Belicheck is the greatest coach of all-time. Hard to argue with that. With Jimmy he used half the playbook. With Brissett he used 20% of the playbook. Brady is the playbook.



    No, not even God could win with Cutler as QB. Sorry

    Let's tap the brakes here...........and I'm a Bears fan.





    I sure hope NE & Pitt stay healthy throughout the season, cuz an AFC Championship slobberknocker between those two sounds awfully enticing right about now.

    Mark has it. With brady, the entire playbook opens up. Very important as teams move into December and more video exists.



    And yes, BB is the GOAT

    The answer to that question is the same answer Belichick gave to the reporter who asked him if he was considering a QB change after that loss to KC a couple of years ago.

    As Biased as I am about Brady being the best ever I have to say that Brady has actually been held back by the Kraft/Bellichek regime. Think about the lack of weapons and big name players the Pats have shorted Brady of over the years, had they spent money and lightened up a tiny bit Belicheks God Complex they actually might have won MORE

    The cowboys didn't win with other's at QB like they did with Aikman. My original post was more that the patriots have the team and coaching to win with anyone at QB so maybe Brady isn't as great (he is good) as perceived.

    Darker then this six or seven year period in between Romo and Aikman or are you just recreating history to fit your narrative?



    These were the Dallas starting QB's in between



    Drew Bledsoe

    Vinny Testaverde

    Drew Henson

    Chad Hutchinson

    Quincy Carter

    Anthony Wright

    Ryan Leaf

    You are correct.......I did throw 2 periods together. The 2000-2006 period was very dark also. We went thru some very bad and over the hill QB's before Tony came in and stunk up the field.

    Wow, posting in the same thread 7 years apart. I think that is my personal record.

    I guess we know now that the Patriots cannot win with just anyone under center. Tommy, however, won for two different teams in 2 different conferences, in 2 very different offensive systems.

    I agree with thisistheshow, perhaps Tommy is underrated?

    Have you been watching the Patriots since Brady left? Tampa did well with him until last year. They won a Super Bowl and lost to the LA Rams the next year. The Rams went all the way. Tom was in his 40s last year, and the Tampa offensive coordinator was a dingbat who got fired.

    No, Tom is the GOAT. It sure wasn’t all because if Belichick.

    Belichick and Brady are both GOATs. They did great things together which they couldn't have done separately. Often the whole is greater than the sum of the parts, like with the Beatles. I think that is the case here.

    I believe that Belichick had more to do with it. Some not as football savvy as me (😉) think that Brady had more to do with it. In any event it was done, and it was magnificent - that's the main thing. 😊

    I only wish it would have happened in Philly. 🤔

    If a 4-0 and 6-2 team lead a division in baseball the 4-0 team is in 1st place because both teams have a 4 game win differential and the 4-0 team has a better winning percentage.

    I will borrow an argument Dallas sometimes uses when comparing players.

    Noll won the only 4 SB's he ever played in. match those up with 4 of BB's. now lets compare Noll and BB beyond the first 4 SB's and see how they fared...

        Noll            BB
    

    1. SB sb
    2. SB sb
    3. sb sb
    4. sb sb
    5. couch sb
    6. couch sb
    7. couch sb loss
    8. couch sb loss
    9. couch sb loss

    If we were to be able to go back in time and ask Mr. Noll himself, would you rather be "perfect" 4-0 in the SB or have a 6-3 record, what do you think he would say?

    I would guarantee he would rather go 6-3

    did downtown really say that maybe Jay Cutler would have been a superstar in New England?

    did dimeman really say that maybe Brady isn't as great as perceived? moreover, why is any part of me surprised to read that?

    why was i capitalizing the first word of every sentence and ending them with periods?

    for those of us who contributed back then and are still around today, have any of us gotten laid since 2016?

    Final question because we just see it differently.

    Yes or no answers please.

    Was Otto Graham’s 7-3 championship record greater than Tom Brady’s 7-2 championship record?

    Was Tom Landry’s 2-2 record better then Bill Parcell’s 2-0 record ?

    The formatting didnt come out great, but you get the drift. while BB was going to 5 more SB's and winning 2 of those, Chuck Noll was sitting on his couch, watching BB win those SB's

    Final question because we just see it differently.

    well, Toms SB record was also 7-3, so on face value, he and Graham have the same championship record.

    Yes, Landrys 2-2 record was more successful than Tunas 2-0 record.

    which is a more successful season, making it to the playoffs and losing in the first round or making it to the SB and losing.

    100 out of 100 coaches would take making it to the SB.

    George Brett, Roger Clemens and Tommy Brady.

    Financially yes. Making it is better.

    Making it and losing it no coach would take. They’d rather be golfing then knowing they’re in a lost game.

    Surprised you feel losing is better in any time of the season.
    That’s not how coaches or any sports fan feels.

    I guess that’s how the “everyone get a trophy “ generation feels, because in my generation a tie was like kissing your cousin, and losing anywhere, anytime never felt good, especially in a Super Bowl.

    Surprised you or anyone else feels coaches feel great about losing the SB over losing the AFC championship game.

    Have you ever heard a coach say that after losing the Bowl ?

    Please provide a link to back up that claim. I find it impossible to believe.

    OK, let us extrapolate this out once again. The ultimate goal is to win the Super Bowl. 31 teams do not accomplish that goal every single season.

    is it your position that every one of those 31 teams holds the same position at season's end?

    That is what it sounds like. If so, then you are saying that during the 2008 season the 0-16 Lions were just as successful as the Super Bowl runner-up Cardinals?

    This is nonsensical. It has nothing to do with "everyone gets a trophy" It has to do with what makes a successful season where only one team can win the championship.

    additionally, you did not address my previous question as to whose coaching career was more successful: the "perfect" 1-0 SB coach who finished last the other 19 years of his career, or the coach who made the super bowl each of his 20 seasons and went 11-9

    George Brett, Roger Clemens and Tommy Brady.

    Please provide a link where a losing SB coach or player said “even though we lost, at least we made it”

    Your SB question is not pertinent to the Noll-Belichick point.

    Noll at 4 and 0 has 4 more SB wins then losses.

    BB at 6-2 has 4 more SB wins then losses.

    If you give BB credit for his wins, then you have to discredit him for his two embarrassing losses.

    They are tied in SB success.

    Noll was the better drafter, and thus the better man.
