I don't know what that means and I can't see the icon because of filters. Also, next to the Saints, the Pats are my favorite team.


But to eloborate, IMO, Belicheck is totally riding Brady and the fact that the AFC East is weak as frick. I still think he is a very good coach, but I keep hearing all these radio goobs on his nuts about personnel decisions and I disagree. If it weren't for Brady, they couldn't afford to have 1st round draft picks that no one knows about 2 years later and such shabby defensive play.

I'm not sure why he is so revered either. I know he won all kinds of awards, but I'm not sure what in the last several drafts of his at Indy can make someone think he could do anything except ride Mannings ability as far as he could. It also helped that the AFC south was fairly weak most of that time.


He's the GOAT GM the game just passed him by in the last 5 years or so.

If Bill Polian was a good talent evaluator he wouldnt be working in TV. He was viewed as a success because of Peyton Manning. But once Manning went down and they had to rely on the rest of Polians picks, they were crap. I trust nothing he says when it comes to evaluating draft picks because of names like Jerry Hughes, Anthony Gonzales, Joseph Adai, Donald Brown, etc. He had a few solid picks but over his tenure he missed more often than not. Just my opinion.

Go look at his first 6 or 7 years in Indy. NO ONE drafted better than the Colts

I'll take Tyler Bray over NY other in draft. Followed closely by Geno. And TBH I think Geno will turn out to be great. Bray has it all. NFL coaches will harness it where as Dooley could not even get respect from the guy.

From 97-06 he drafted 11 pro bowl players, zero from 08-11

Not as bad as I thought.

Brady, Seymour, Asante, Light, Mankins, Goskowski, Meriweather, Mayo, Slater, Volmer, McCourty, Gronk, A Hern are all Pro-Bowlers, and Chandler/Hightower will be in that discussion soon.
