haha well during games or right after I can't be relied upon to be rational. It also is kind of pointless to write out or link or put up stuff like that post you just mentioned since no one else read it. So the half formed thoughts go up!
As far as the coach/QB thing, I've always thought both Young and Montana greatly benefited from playing away from Walsh. Without giving the Chiefs their greatest success in a long while, it always would have nagged whether Joe was just a plug and play guy in the WCO
For Brady, it's just striking the record they had in his lost season. But Dallas falls apart without Romo and the Colts go from home field advantage to the first pick w/o Peyton. It's not about Casell and CPaint, it's how good Belichick is vs his peers
Pats/Cowboys game was an interesting showcase of coaching. Marinelli went to the well a bit too much with his 3-2-5 package, and the Pats adjusted really well. Slant/Flat (rub), Slant/Wheel (rub), and Claiborne was getting abused by Edelman running drives and digs.
On the other side of the ball, the offensive coaches were hamstrung by Weeden and Belicheck knew this. Stack the boxes, take away Witten and Beasely on 3rd down, and force Williams and Street to win their match ups. There were opportunities for Weeden, but Weeden needed to make his throws and he didn't. So when the Cowboys actually sustain a drive into Pats territory, but stalls, Garrett decides to kick a FG.
