An NFL insider rips Pioli for letting quality players go

[mcaj22]

Clark is really clueless outside of his circle of the same 10 guys that were relevant in 1996. and when he took a chance on the Patriots Tree he got exposed for what giant ****ing frauds they were. But I dont know how he didnt see that with how much failure there was already out there in Mangini, Romeo in Cleveland, Charlie Weiss everywhere, etc

Listen, it's clear that Pioli was not the great hire it was purported to be, but at the time it was a near consensus home run. You can't act like everyone saw this coming.

Clearly, as another cp poster said, the 'Patriot Way' is stumbling onto Tom Brady in the 6th round and little else matters. In 2008, the jury was very much out on that.

The actual facts of the situation are bad enough.
