Belichick is going no where. A team that should’ve won 4 games max won 7 because of coaching. Brian Flores was underrated despite not having the defense coordinator title. Matt Patricia is back now who was a fantastic D coordinator for us.
Hightower and Chung were massive holes on defense due to covid hold outs, along with the other hold outs.
If the Patriots don’t get the guy they want at 15 for QB, there are tons of game manager QBs available this off season.
We lost 2 games (Seattle and Buffalo) that were 1 play away from a win (stopped by Seattle at the goal line, Cam fumbled in Buffalo). We lost against horse sh!t Denver , any average QB behind center and that’s a W.
We have a lot of good picks this year, including the compensatory ones we’ll get for Brady and Van Noy leaving. I wouldn’t mind trading a 2nd for Stafford or signing Fitz for a year if we draft Mac Jones or Lance.
WR group looks weak but they also had a QB that couldn’t hit a parked car in Richmond.
Off season priorities in my opinion:
1. QB
2. LB
3. DT
3B. RT - Cannon is too injury riddled
Almost any QB we start next year will be an upgrade on what we got out of Cam.
