I get that it's a nice time to kick the Patriots and ol' Bill while they're down but the guy did lose Brady in week 1 and then win 11 games with the backup QB, and he's only been BAD once Mac Jones imploded. They've shown they can compete with passable talent, Brady wins it all and was the Hall to Bill's Oates, but still, I wouldn't discount that they managed to compete in situations that we have deemed hopeless.

I'm just saying, for ZT's sake if all it takes is two losing seasons to undo 6 SB wins he may want to retire as soon as Burrow hangs 'em up.

Not to mention that Brady wasn't yet Brady early on. Nobody thought they were watching the greatest winner of all time when they beat the Rams... The heavily favored Rams.
