GM/HC/QB combos are magical when they work. Payton/Brees, Belichik/Brady, Reid/Mahommes. But they are no plucked off trees, or organizations that naturally grow them.

I realize now that you have a flawed notion of how championship football works. You can have the best combos in the world (McDermott/Allen,Harbaugh/Jackson) and never still actually climb the mountain to the top.

And every one of these except for Reid/Mahommes have ifs.

SFIAH

“Ifs” and all… I’ll start with the team that WON THE PATHETIC NFC SOUTH this past season, then pan across the league to all of the teams with a better percentage than us, with more charismatic coaches, better organized systems and better utilized play makers… (Rams weren’t pretty “mid” when they totally dominated us on Thursday Night Football)… all the way up to the “PLAYOFFS?!?”… And here we are (again) saying “Let’s see how things go over the next few decades”…

Pathetic actually.
