Winning also hides a lot of issues. Look no further then 22 season. I’m not saying it’s the same thing and Winning helps but it’s a bad aid on issues. Once Brady left NE and The Pats started losing more, Bill’s antics got tiresome quick. He’s a guy who’s philosophy works if you win almost as much as they did in the last 2 decades but it also wears thin when things aren’t going well. Just look at how Chip Kelly went about the Eagles. He tried doing it “The Patriots Way” and there’s guys who went else where like Chris Long and LaGarrette Blount who said they had more fun winning SB52 in Philly then they had at any point in NE.Winning cures everything. The Vikings win was big. This week will be big, too.
I have a feeling the Birds win decisively this week- revenge, getting JC and Q back, NYG missing starting CBs, Kelly Green game, HFA, etc.
I think the biggest key is gonna be the Eagles’ C position. If they can muddle thru this game with Toth at C and find a way to neutralize sexy Dexy, they coast into the bye and get a chance to lick their wounds and reboot.
Winning solves some stuff but hides a lot of other stuff.
