Are the Patriots separating themselves from the worst teams in the league?
Are the New England Patriots separating themselves from the worst teams in the NFL? Felger thinks that they may be.
Felger: I mean I think the whole season is usually about the opponent, like you’re just that team, right? I mean, if they can’t beat you, what does that say about them? Like, that’s just what you are this year. So I don’t there’s any shame or I don’t think you’re denigrating the Patriots by saying it’s more about the Bears. And I kind of think it’s important. And it’s like baby steps. At least you’re not them. And I think that’s where you start. I, from the very beginning, I thought it was important for them not to be the worst. Don’t be the worst. Don’t be the worst offense, don’t be the worst coaching staff, don’t be the worst team. That’s a bad, bad sign. Start somewhere. And you know where I think they’re starting? Is starting to separate themselves from the worst. Which like, OK. Take it. Step one.
Felger: And that, to me, that’s better and we’ve been on this whole year, to me that has me feeling better about the team, that they’re at least separating themselves over someone and starting to work up a tier, if you will, than the quarterback looks good, but everything else is a disaster and you have the 1st overall pick that never did anything for me. And this feels better. It does look like you have the guy and oh also, you’re not Matt Eberflus and the and the Bears. You’re not Jeff Ulbrich and the Jets. You’re better than those horrible organizations and those terrible coaching Staffs, and you’re not that. OK. Like I don’t know about you, I wondered…were you the worst in the league? Worst roster? Worst coaching staff? Worst team? First overall pick? Like I think that’s just a horrible place to be.
