I am also ready to move on from Pete at this point, but this narrative that Pete deserves absolutely zero credit for any success this team has seen since he's been here is absurd.
Well since u want it how about u do it. I posted how Bill did when Brady did not play due to injury and suspension. I believe it was 11-4. Neither of the QBs were franchise qbs either. Heck one is not even in the NFL anymore. U saw how good the rams were with Goff and he is not a franchise qb. I can go on, but since u want it you should get it.
As you already know, Belichick has a below .500 winning percentage as an NFL Head Coach without Brady, and I'm not sure that McVay qualifies as a highly successful Head Coach since he hasn't won a Super Bowl and the 1 time he made it to the Super Bowl his team scored a whopping 3 points.
But my point, that you are pretending to not get, is that Head Coaches in the NFL generally aren't very successful without a good/great QB, because QB is by far the most important position in football and it's nearly impossible to be consistently successful without a very good one.
So yeah, I agree that Carroll likely would have been a below .500 HC without Wilson. Just like how Belichick is a below .500 HC without Brady. It's not really a criticism, it's just how things generally work.
And what u aren't getting and I showed when bill did not have Brady for those 15 games he still found a way to go.11-4. Also Bill never said he just needs a qb to manage the game and not make mistakes. PC did. So when u say it back it up. PC can't. And he said it. Keep in mind he could have said if not for Wilson or another qb of his level. But he did not he said specifically Wilson. It's amazing the HC admits it but still you can't expect it. And again Goff us not a franchise QB and yet the rams were good with him.
Yes, I'm aware that Belichick and the Patriots went 11-5 (and missed the playoffs) in 2008 when Brady got hurt in the first game of the season and was then was out for the rest of the year. Despite that 1 season that he was able to do well without Brady, the indisputable fact is that he has a 63-75 record as an NFL Head Coach without Brady.
Bill Belichick with Tom Brady (regular season) 219-64 (.774)
Bill Belichick without Tom Brady (regular season) 63-75 (.457)
Bill Belichick with Tom Brady (playoffs) 30-11 (.732)
Bill Belichick without Tom Brady (playoffs) 1-1 (.500)
Also, I don't know what it is you think I can't "expect". I literally just said in my previous post that I agree that Carroll likely would have been a below .500 Head Coach without Wilson. You know, just like how Belichick is a below .500 Head Coach without Brady.
