The fact that all 3 of the other teams in the AFC East have been incompetent to downright abysmal for the duration of Belichik/Brady being in NE.


As are most divisions with a dominant team of the era. Strong teams create a power vacuum and teams struggle to find consistent playoff appearances which leads to more turnover and constant poor records. Same shite had happened in the SEC with Saban.

Also, on average, the NFC has been FAR more competitive than the AFC for the last 17 years. Brady and Belichik have basically sleepwalked their way to a bye every year since going to NE.


Factually that is incorrect. AFC has had a better record against the NFC in all but 4 of Brady's seasons as a pro.

How anyone can argue against this is beyond me.


Sorry you are letting your perception lead you eyes instead of what actually happened

Using a college conference analogy is a false equivalency. The fact is, the AFC East is pretty much the ONLY division that has been this top-heavy thru the years. AFC South when Peyton was dominating was close, I'll give you that, but no other division has had such disparity between 1 team and the other 3 as the AFC East.

Why does record of NFC vs. AFC mean the AFC is better? That's like saying the AFC is better bc they won the Pro Bowl this year. Again, false equivalency. The NFC is WAY more competitive on average than the AFC. There's a new team emerging from it every season. shite, 13-3 doesn't even guarantee you a bye in the NFC. But it damn sure does in the AFC.

Again, I think Brady IS the GOAT. I am in awe of what he and Belichik have accomplished. But I also have eyes, and a brain, and logic, and I am very willing to point out the TRUTH that their division and conference lend them an easier road to every SB. I'm sorry that YOU can't be reasonable and objective.

It's perfectly ok to admit they had an easier road. Hell, you can even take the stance of "Welp, they played the cards they were dealt and got it done!" But to just blindly refuse to acknowledge it, and then outright deny it, makes you wrong. Suck it.
