predator_05 Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 Anybody that thinks that Belichick or any other coach, is a "disciplinarian", is kidding themselves. Good players get preferential treatment. Scrubs that were promoted from practice squad have a much smaller margin for error. This is how it works at EVERY franchise. Jimmy Johnson said it best: "I can't be writing what the rules are because my rules vary from player to player. It's like I told Lawrence: In Dallas we had a linebacker named John Roper who got cut for falling asleep in a meeting. If Troy Aikman fell asleep in a meeting, I'd go over and whisper, `Wake up, Troy.' " --Miami Dolphins coach Jimmy Johnson, on what he expects of new running back Lawrence Phillips, a player with a history of trouble with the law who was cut by St. Louis for breaking numerous team rules.

Copernicus Posted November 24, 2014 Author Share Posted November 24, 2014 Take out Brady and you'll see. All the lack of discipline is made up for when u win and without Brady, Pats have a pedestrian record under BB. I am not arguing this point. Of course it is slanted when you have a HOF QB. I hate the Patriots. I hate every team that plays our Jets. However, I can recognize teams that win consistently and they all have a sense of discipline, much more than our current Jets.....

Klecko73isGod Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 That's fine and good. If Blount wasn't effective Sunday you would have seen Grey play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billo83 Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 I believe we were on pace to building a foundation for a championship under Mangini. Loved that when a player screwed up they'd run a lap. It builds team, but more importantly, the players respected him. Young team building towards a championship with a young HC. Then the owner undermined to HC by trading for an aging prima Dona QB in Favre. Second year HC and an agig HOF prima dona QB is a recipe for disaster...........[/quote I don't agree, I think the players didn't respect him and didn't play hard for him. Look how the Kendall situation was handled. I think you need to have a balance really, like in the middle between Rex and Manny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aec4 Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 I am an old school hard ass and I agree. but if brady was late because his facial mask didn't set on time, he would have been benched only a series, if that it's easy to make an example of scrubs, which is why it's amazing they don't have 3 alarms Jimmy Johnson, after cutting someone in the early 90s for falling asleep in a meeting, when asked what he would have done if Troy Aikman was caught sleeping: "I'd tap him on the shoulder and ask him to wake up, and then just go back to what I was doing." Different players get different levels of treatment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Crusher Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 Not sure how a team can fire a HC after going 9-7 and building a solid foundation, yet retains a HC after 4 non-winning, non-playoff seasons. Mangini may be the most unlikeable person in the history of the NFL? LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AFJF Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 Yes I would actually this team needs a few thugs to bring out the piss and vinegar in them all. I think those are the hard working, ball busting types like Ray Lewis, not the kind who quits when he doesn't get his way. JMO of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PatsFanTX Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 Mangini may be the most unlikeable person in the history of the NFL? LOL True, he has a personality below a dead fish. He still is one smart NFL dude. Would you rather have a loud mouth clown as a HC or someone who understands the game of football? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
