This is stupid.

Brady was great, BB is great. Mac is not, not sure how this reflects on BB in a league that has been nerfed to the point of it being impossible to win without a top QB.
it falls on BB. If you don’t have a mahomes then you need to get talent around your QB. He failed at that.

Is that any different than it's ever been. Roger Staubach. Terry Bradshaw. Joe Montana. Troy Aikman. Tom Brady. Patrick Mahomes.

You always needed a great QB, outside of the occasional random year.

Regarding BOB vs Patricia I think BOB should get a lot of rope. Patricia wasn’t qualified for the job.

I am genuinely touched by Mac paying tribute to Wake by only throwing knuckleballs but somewhat question the choice of venue.

I think it goes back to not playing enough in the preseason. This offense needs all the reps it can find and they barely played in the preseason and only had joint practices against one opponent.

The first 3 Pats Superbowls were won by teams built around defense and ball control.

That isn't possible any more. Also most of those qbs listed were meh.

Every team has had the same number of preseason games

It’s one bad game. Brady threw 4 picks at Denver in the 4th Quarter once.
Agreed. Until this game Mac hasn't been the problem. QBs are going to have terrible games on occasion. He's not great, but he's also not nearly as bad as his showing today.

Yeah but Wakefield had Doug Mirabelli
Was it ‘05 when the Sox let Mirabelli walk then after a bunch of passed balls in Wakefield starts they frantically traded for him back? I vaguely remember him being driven to Fenway straight from Logan and changing into his uniform in the state police escort.
