That's the reason I can't quibble about their coaching in terms of 2017-18 season.
Sure, Brady is more consistent and versatile than Roethlisberger, but neither team was 13-3 caliber. Steelers have managed to overpay a running back, botch their defense with an undersized linebacker that never developed and is now finished, lose their only remnant of their brand of defense to a conference rival, and then get bullied by the Jacksonville Jaguars. Patriots managed to navigate their course with
their paper-tiger team all the way to Super Bowl favoritism! It took an opponent playing at a peak state to beat them. Yea, regime change is in order in the near future, but I can't criticize the job this season.
