The 74 YO said the coach has a challenging situation. They lack a playmaker QB. “The point is, you can’t replace Tom Brady. People can sit here and tell me from now till next year what a great coach Bill Belichick is, and he is a great coach. But Tom Brady doesn’t grow on trees. You can’t pluck him like fruit.

Meanwhile, Kornheiser said Patriots had the luxury of a great QB, Tom Brady in the past. At present, it is difficult to handle the team because they had an amazing one. “They will try like Mac Jones. They’re going to try Bailey Zappy. When you have a great QB, you can be somebody and when you don’t, it’s difficult. They are searching for a quarterback,” he pointed out.

Big teams struggle in big time

New England Patriots, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and Green Bay Packers are the three top teams in the NFL. They stand at an identical position in the league after seven games. They all won three and lost four games.
