That article couldn't be any more meaningless for reasons that should be obvious.
They didn't have a tough schedule at all. I'd say it was an average difficulty schedule... maybe slightly easier than average.
Vegas also said they had one of the hardest schedules… but if I said the ocean was wet you’d disagree at this point.
Great so let's see some proof that Brady always had the best teams throughout his career compared to his peers. Defensive PPG is not proof.
It’s not just defensive ppg, all the stats that measure defense, line play, special teams walk lockstep with team points. You’re just a Brady cheerleader, so anything that suggests he had good teams around him you’ll disagree with even if it’s undeniable.
^How to say you don't know what that is...without actually saying you don't know what that is....
The funniest part about this ^ sentence above is you can’t explain to the rest of us what DVOA is so a 12 year old could understand it.
The best you’ll come up with is a cut and paste job from Football Outsiders, which even you won’t understand.
Doesn't mean anything to me. What great backs did they shut down? When did they get a key stop on the ground to turn a game around? They were gashed by Mostert and Hall. No this is not the toughest run defense in the NFL.
They played the Bills and Dolphins twice, they played the NFC East which meant the Eagles and Cowboys. They had one of the toughest schedules in football. I’m fighting every urge not to be insulting.
So they were decent...which is what I said.
Top five in points allowed… you realize there are 32 teams right?
Not at all. Even our friend DVOA puts them at #10. That's not a knock on the defense but it is a reminder that this is not a team with an incredible defense that is only a QB away from contention. No they are not on both counts. Not even close.
I bet if Brady was on this team you’d be on your knees with the mouth open.
Also teams with great defenses don't get blasted 72-3 in a 2 game span. Nor give up 430+ yards of offense at home against teams like the Commanders.
How many turnovers did our QB have, how many points were pick sixes, fumble scoop and scores? You don’t understand football, it’s painful to discuss it with you.
Josh was a "genius" OC? Really?
Laughable… suddenly he’s no good at offense either.
"Weapons" like Agholor and Parker... lol
Agholor and Jonnu left Mac and had one of the better seasons of their career. We had a bunch of better weapons you skipped over.
His HC decided that two head coaching failures who knew nothing about offense should run his offense and develop his young QB. Nuff said. Clearly that isn't how you develop a young QB. Maybe without Brady to veto Bill's stupidity such as this... this is who Bill always was as a HC. It's not a flattering picture.
Mac sucked on his own, he’s sucked after week 13 of his rookie year when teams accumulated tape on him.
Now we're comparing Jones with one of the best in the league and the #1 overall pick the year before who has carried his team to a Super Bowl almost by himself. Ok then.
Burrow hasn’t been ruined by one of the worst lines in football, in fact him and his weapons got the team on the doorstep of a Super Bowl victory. Justin Herbert’s teams have stunk, why isn’t he “ruined?”
Of course you don’t want me comparing Mac to actual good QB’s, because he sucks… like your takes.
