[QUOTE="Stanger37, post: 816823, member: 13457"] I do have Brady in the GOAT #1 spot and it will be hard for someone to remove him from that. I also have Belichick in the GOAT #1 spot for coaches. There are so many hypothetical situations with Belichick/Rodgers and you have done a good job stating that. Brady and Belichick both embrace the daily, weekly, monthly, yearly grind that it takes to continue on being the best. Did they help instill that to each other? I think so. Not everyone in the league is content with giving up everything they have to reach the pinnacle and I think people refuse to give that credit to them. I also think Brady and Rodgers have two different styles of WANTING to play. Brady doesn't have a problem slowly dissecting a defense where as Rodgers seems to want the big chunk yardage. I don't know if that's Belichick, Brady, McCarthy, or Rodgers. Would Rodgers respect Belichick for 19 years? Would he have a feud with him 18 years in and put it off to the side to go back to business? I don't know but I do not fault either of them for being on the team together as the other 31 teams had a chance to land Brady multiple times. Also, I partially credit their success to leaving the AFC East in shambles for the last 20 years. Do those teams draft defense to slow them down? Or offense to keep up with them? Do they splash in free agency? Do they try to hire a big name coach? If it was as easy as the Patriots make it look, every team would do it. Teams would love to go from Favre to Rodgers, Packers had a huge advantage that it happened. No one holds that against them. The Bears have been a mess for the most part of the last 20 years, Detroit had 8 wins in 3 years, Minnesota has been average at best. I'd be willing to bet the worst teams in the AFC East were overall better than the NFC North's worst teams over the last 20 years. Divisional games are never easy no matter what. Every division fluctuates up and down. Every team goes into the same draft every year. Yet people fault the Patriots for continuously being better than the rest of their division. [/QUOTE]
