    In my day we did not have self-esteem... we had self-respect, and no more of it then we earned.

    Re: Josh McDaniels to Denver

    It will be interesting to see what the Patriots do to replace McDaniels.

    There has been a lot of talk of Scott Pioli leaving, and he may this week. However, losing Pioli may not be as big a loss as losing McDaniels. That isn't to take anything away from Scott Pioli, who has done a great job for the Pats. However, the Pats have been grooming Nick Cesario to replace Pioli for several years, so they have an in-house replacement if he were to leave. That eases the blow a little, because they have a guy who has been training to do the job and knows how they do business.

    But... how is the replacement for McDaniels? I'm not sure they have one on staff. Dante Scarnecchia, who is Asst HC and OL coach, is one of the most respected people on the staff and a great coach. However, he hasn't been interested in being a coordinator before and likes his role. Outside of him, I'm not sure they have someone who they have prepared to take McDaniel's place.

    Do they instead hire from outside the organization? This is something they haven't done a lot of, usually they bring guys along to take the place of guys who are leaving. With McDaniels, I don't know if that have that in-house candidate. That may mean they bring someone in from outside, a surprise candidate.

    here is to hoping that the whole NE staff gets hired by others.

    I was hoping you would comment, because I had no clue who might replace McDaniels. I don't know much about the Patriots coaching staff, but the only "brand-name" Patriots assistant coach who came from outside is Dom Capers.

    Anyways, one name popped into my head: Jim Fassel. I know Fassel was interested in the Raiders head-coach position though. What are the chances of that?

    What is the point anyway?

    Personnel like Weiss, Crennell, Mangini, McDaniels, and Pioli can keep going away from Boston and chocking with other teams but the central piece that keeps the Pats functioning together is still there.

    idk, you might be right, but didnt shanny have a ton of control and say in what happened with the organization? from what I've heard, the Broncs owner is a pretty good dude who legitimately wants to win, and got one of the best young minds out there. we'll see what happens.

    It was under Josh McDaniels that Brady had his best passing season with hardly any talent. It was under him that the pats almost went 16-0. It was under him that Cassel is now a better qb than we have with barely any experience. I'm glad he's gone from the pats. I wish we had him instead of Dick and Turk.

    Hardly any talent? The guy did a great job, but let's not kid, that 2007-2008 NE offense was stacked.

    my bad I was talking about 2005 when McDaniels was the qb coach and propelled Brady as the top passer that year without Moss and Welker. Some reports say it was he who called the plays in 2005.

    I think we've had feelers from a couple of used car dealers, a time share sales company, and a Ponzi scheme operator.
    Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?

    Having the other team's defensive signals doesn't hurt either.

    even cheaters have to be able to perform or it won't work. If you have a perfect plan to rob a bank, it means nothing if the people involved don't do what they are supposed to do .
