Thread: Former Packers still pursuing the dream

    I agree to a degree. But he remade the offense to suit Brady's abilities and Brady is not the prototypical QB except in size and toughness.

    He doesn't have a cannon arm and he doesn't throw most of his passes into tight windows. What is unremarked about Belichick's achievement here is that he has created a completely new system that is very QB friendly, yet no one compares this to what Walsh did with Montana.
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    There was a time, not too long ago, when Sean Peyton was the hottest young coach since Don Shula.

    Not so much any more. Just goes to show what having good personnel can do for a coach's reputation.

    Which means we should get a better idea this year just how good Pete Carroll really is or isn't. That roster looks good defensively, but they still seem to be struggling to figure out that o-line thing. And I've heard Lacy is maybe not quite as svelte and nimble as early reports suggested.

    They've also recently done what many Packerrats pine for Ted to do: make a whole bunch of moves and trades. So we'll see how it all pans out. Though to Ted's credit given people's perception of him as a turtle, he's made a few moves of his own.

    TT should have held onto him and traded him, even if it was just for a bag of chips.

    The Atlanta move and bringing back Kuhn was expected.

    Ringo cut. So he's still pursuing the dream, just not in a Bengals uniform.
