Revisionist history at its best. Tampa was not an elite roster. They were a wild card team who flipped the switch in the post season all the way to the title because they had #12.A popular hot take for outsiders but these 2 paragraphs are truth.
"I see the past three years as proving a different point: Brady, the best quarterback ever, needed an elite roster to win the Super Bowl, and Belichick, the best coach ever, needs elite quarterback play to win one. Brady had that elite roster when he got to Tampa Bay. Belichick has not had elite quarterback play since Brady left.
Everything the Patriots do on offense from here has to be guided by that quest. We can debate how good Jones can be, but he can clearly be better than he has been under Patricia. The Patriots need fresh, creative thinking from a real offensive coordinator. If you and I can see that, then surely the best coach in history can see it, too."
In other words, BB needs to find another job for Patricia next year and replace him with a competent offensive mind. Indeed.
Although I have to say, I find it very satisfying that people are at least finally able to admit that Bill needs an elite quarterback just like every other coach, and not a top 15 quarterback that he can win 6 Super Bowls with.
