I have huge respect for Bill and his legacy as a coach, but am curious on everyone’s thoughts regarding what will happen next season. Speculation seems to be that the Chargers are a likely landing spot.

That being said, does the utter failure of Bill’s coaching tree and closest disciples warrant any concern regarding Bill’s ability to succeed in a new system?

Seeing how many years Patricia, McDaniels, and O’Brian spent with Bill, and how horribly implementing the “Patriot Way” resulted naturally is a cause for concern.

Bill’s results as a head coach are irrefutable and will likely stand the test of time. That being said, was it lighting in a bottle matching a great coach who implemented a system and culture that allowed the greatest QB of all time to thrive, or was Bill truly a football mastermind who could replicate the same success at another team?

Interestingly, I’d argue (minus Brady) this Chargers offense would easily be the most talented squad Bill has ever had top to bottom. How do you think this will play out?

Belichick and his tree are pedestrian without Brady

I mean brady certainly helped belichick alot. But it's hard to argue brady is 5 super Bowls worth better then peyton brees etc. Bill had a revolutionary team on defense for bradys first three super Bowls and pretty good offensive weapons for the last three. The rams sb is why I can't buy bill being nothing without brady. Bill is simply a hof coach over the hill.

Closer look at the rams Super Bowl…

Belichick made one of the dumbest coaching moves of all time putting Gronk in at safety for the Miracle in Miami.

That forced Brady to go into arrowhead for the AFC title game with a past their best Edelman, Gronk and Hogan.

The fans blasted laser beams into his eyes, and he still dropped 40 and walked out a winner.
