Dominant narratives that died out

[chuckifubuck]

Super Bowl got me thinking about this.

Before Mahomes broke through, and especially before Brady won his last couple of superbowls, there was a big narrative that was basically like "Brady had the best career ever, but Rodgers is the greatest QB ever."

Mahomes has basically erased Rodgers from the picture and turned him into an also ran.

This made me think, what are some other narratives that were prominent for years but are now basically squashed? Doesn't have to be NFL.

 

[...and some waffle fries]

That Belicheck is the GOAT Coach. Brady left and Belicheck turned into Nathaniel Hackett.

Reid won games with McNabb, Vick, Kolb, Alex Smith and now Mahomes.

Belicheck was terrible at player personell. Brady was saving him for 20 years.

The narrative that Jordan received favorable treatment by referees has largely been forgotten.
But in the 1990s, that was a major topic around him.

*Offensive personel

Belicheck's defense personnel decisions even to this day are elite and prob better than anyone in the history of the game, but looking back on it his offensive personel decision stunk outside of adding elite tight ends (Gronk and Hernandez) and randy moss.

Casual takes, Brady wasn’t the only one who left and didn’t get replaced and Brady wasn’t the sole reason patriots won all 6 super bowls specially the first 3 but go ahead and cook and when you talk about WINNING why you mentioning Kolb, Vick, Alex smith, Mcnabb and them as if the definition of WINNING is making the playoffs? Didn’t Belichick make the playoffs with Mac Jones? Popovich never won a title without Tim Duncan does that discredit his career?

You talking about goat coaching and you bringing up GM duties? “Is ooochie Wally Wally or is it One Mic?”

At the end of the day 6>3.

Kobe is on MJ/LeBron level.

They squeezed into the playoffs @ 10-7. They were beating up on bad teams in reg season and then got spanked 47-17 by the Bills in the wild card.

He aint sniffed the playoffs since.

My point still stands.

Okay Casual. Kevin kolb, had a career 3-4 record under Reid, Vick was 20-20 with multiple seasons under .500, 0-1 in the playoffs and you squeezed their names in there as if we are casuals like you posting in here but according to you Reid “won” with Kolb and Vic.

Being terrible at player personnel says more about his GM ability than coaching.

At no point in Andy Reids career has he ever looked like what Belicheck has looked like without Brady. Thats the point.

Belicheck is coming off a 4-13 season and with all the coaching vacancies nobody wanted him in their building.

Give it up. Its over. Belicheck aint it.

Rodgers being “the greatest qb ever” was never the “dominant narrative”

That was a Stephen A narrative more than anything.

Don't ignore the fact the Patriots got caught spying in 2019 and haven't won a playoff game since
