Name a coach that has not had several good seasons then had a run of bad ones? Andy Reed was fired because he could not get it done, moved to KC and won. Belichek lost at Cleveland, won at NE and now he’s losing at NE. McVey was on top of the world for a couple years now he’s talking retirement. Pete Carroll won one then lost one and now they are just kinda out there. Noll had great success then flatlined, same with Landry.

What I think most people think that don’t look beyond the game of the week is that teams rise and fall according to the personnel they have. The decline you listed 2016 and beyond was in a result of Ben aging and becoming less effective. With that being said, most teams start losing and rebuilding through the draft. The Steelers have not flatlined which keeps them picking in the 20-28 range in the draft which gives you much less of a chance of getting a legacy player. You can (Watt) but, it’s hard. Cower didn’t achieve his championship until we lost our way to a top 12 pick and got Ben. He was around too long and we won too much to get the players that other teams get. Imagine if we had the Browns picks over the last 10 years, or the Jets.

Your real complaint is that we did not tank for a few years and rebuild like KC or Buffalo. NE struck gold with Brady, when he left, so did they. Tomlin has coached his way out of injury and with a rookie QB and managed success, and it’s actually to his detriment. This team has never chased free agents or mortgaged their future to make a one year run, if you want that, go to NFL.com and order a Rams jersey or Broncos. We typically draft and build our own teams. It’s hard to do that when you are not getting top picks.

you would probably be alot happier as a Jags fan or Cardinals, they lose to get picks and change coaches every 3 years.

Seems to me the most important thing is to have an elite QB. Cowher got Ben, boom, quickly gets his first Super Bowl win after years of coming up short. Belichick is considered to be genius, then as soon as Brady leaves...failure. Now we wonder if Belichick was that good. Reid has Mahomes, so he is best head coach.

Ben lost his "super powers" as soon as he stopped holding the ball where he could buy time to throw deep and from that point on was not truly elite.

Tough to figure how much the head coach contributes to winning. How much are they really involved in the play calling?

That explains how we came out of the gate hot, scoring 3 points in the first half. Imagine if we didn't have that cheat code?
