[Peyton to Belichick: "This might be my last rodeo."]

It seems to me that whenever there is a good story, i.e. come back from a hurricane, the BUS retiring etc. that results in that team winning. Probably a coincidence but hopefully the best story is Manning retiring and this results in a Denver win.

[Best 18-1 Team Rankings]

I think that you have the teams listed right but would that mean that the 72 Dolphins were dominate than the rest? If you could throw out Miami's best or worst game for stat purposes, would they be considered the most dominate.

I disagree wholeheartedly with the bolded. Maybe none of them would do anything on another staff, but those guys know their stuff and work hard. I think McDaniels showed some serious flaws as a head coach, but he's obviously a smart offensive guy.

 

Also, I posted an article here today about how the Texans install the offensive gameplan every week. O'Brien insists that 'Bill lets his coaches coach,' said it more than once in that piece. And he says he's patterned his staff after what they did in New England, where O'Brien worked up from low level assistant to OC. If anyone knows the Pats' modus operandi, it's O'Brien. The Texans' staff is all hands on deck when it comes to putting in the gameplan. I can't imagine Belichick not being the same way.

 

I got the same impression from the "Do Your Job" fluff piece last offseason. I recently watched it for the first time, and it's good stuff, but not nearly as in depth as I expected. Still, all the coaches work hard, from the research director to the coordinators.

It doesn't seem that Pats coordinators have been too good as head coaches.
