The odds were stacked even without losing those players. Its easy to say, if they don't win the SB, it was due to losing those players, but there is more to it than that.

We won the superbowl without Ty Law this last year. He would have helped, but it shows how important good coaching is.I think Mangini will do fine on defense, but can Bellichek take over for Weis???? BB is a defensive specialist... can he run an efficient offence on his own? if he can, it just shows how brilliant he really is! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
