Time to Step up

Why didn't he just "demand excellence" in 2019 when he looked like crap against the Titans in the playoffs?

I would say that 2019 is probably more the exception and not the rule. Tom Brady has only missed the playoffs once as a starter and never had a losing season. Atleast what I saw quickly looking it up. Sure you could point to a bad division and there has been other good quarterbacks to thrive in a bad division. But they don't have Brady's superbowl rings or his playoff record.
I'd say that all players that make it to the NFL are talented. I also think it's fair to say that the X factor that determines a players success in the NFL beyond talent is they're determination to be great. So yes I think if you have a quarterback who is pushing all the players around him to be great on every single play that absolutely makes a difference.
