All the belichek hate you see now is absurd. And honestly it’s for entertainment to stir up drama and ratings. Belichek doesn’t “need” Brady. What he needs is what all coaches need. A very very very very good quarterback. And what every quarterback needs to win Super Bowl. Avery good coach, offensive line, and defense. The patriots were put together from top to bottom almost perfectly for 20 years. During the patriot dynasty. If beleichik had. Manning, rivers, Rodgers, Big Ben. Brees. Msybe a few others. They would have been the best dynasty of all time. 6 super bowls. Msybe. Maybe not. But they would have been great. When you look at all the super bowls they won, they could have swapped qbs, and the patriots would have most likely won.
If Warner played on NE. Probably If delhome played on NE. Maybe If Mcnabb played on NE. Maybe If Matt Ryan played on NE. Probably Goff. Maybe. Russel Wilson. Probably If you swapped manning and Brady in those afc championships. I’d take the patriots. Big Ben lost to Brady twice in afc championships. Those might have been switched.
All in all. The patriots dynasty, the stars and planets aligned for 2 decades straight. If Brady went somewhere else would he have 7? Doubtful. People tend to forget how great those early patriots defenses were. It’s not some black and white topic. They are a team who had great and the right players at all positions, and coaches who drew up plays and schemes that made them the best
When polamalu intercepted Joe Flacco in the 2008 AFC championship in 2008 to seal the win to go to the Super Bowl. Watch it on YouTube it was crazy
