No, I am not moving the goal post. You are trying to equate sacks with "bad" OLine play.
My point was when did the Pats have a bad OLine. You are doing what is called "stat" manipulation to get the point you want. You don't care that Brady wouldn't be Brady in Cincinnati, you just want everyone to agree with you that Dalton is the problem.
You agree that we have other issues, but you are so target fixated on Dalton that you think that if we were to replace him, we would be good.
That is just plain false. Even if the best QB were on our team right NOW. We would have a losing season. If he stayed on our team for 5 years, and we did not fix the OLine, we would have losing seasons. The only reason you think a QB is the best is because of the perception around the league. It wouldn't be long before you would claim that the best QB is the problem and that we would need to move on. With Brady you would probably say that he is "too old" and doesn't have "it" anymore.
So instead of accusing me of "moving goal post", how about acknowledge that what I said about poor OLine play, which is something that we have is not something NE has, based off of 1 part of OLine play. Sacks are NOT the only aspect of OLine play. How hard is that to grasp?
