So what did Pete change this week - other than giving up more points this week than the previous two combined?

Pete's act has grown very stale. The local media all sort of chuckle and roll their eyes at his "yeah man!" persona these days. It's really hard to pull that off when you're getting your azz kicked.

Love Pete. Always will.
But, his time in the sun is over...

Momma always told him not to look into on the eyes of the sun.
Seems he doesn't want to listen, after all, thats where the fun is... 8)

I said it long before this season that we were experiencing the beginning of the end of the PC era.
Many cried blasphemy.
Now many more and merely crying.
Pete helped us to win a SB. I will always be grateful to him for that. Those were wonderful times to be a Seahawk fan.
That time is over.
Time to hit the reset button.
How the Patriots manage to be so competitive year in and year out I don't know.
It's clear this team was never nor will ever be, the Patriots.
Time to look to the future - and Pete Carroll isn't in it.

The Pats are the Pats because:
1) They are merciless in their conviction to win.
2) They continually adapt and innovate.
As successful a run as it's been, Pete is a one trick pony: ball control offense with a smothering defense. Great formula if you can physically dominate the opponent. Clearly the Hawks are no longer physically dominating and are out schemed far too often.

The patriots coach attention to detail endlessly. It's blatantly evident in the product.
In New England Michael Bennett would have been canned by the second straight game with an off sides for example.
We coach on more of a philosophical, overall technique manner.
Also blatantly obvious in the product. At least it got us a ring though.

The Pats also know when to cut bait on players. They are unafraid.

Oh shut up. Michael Bennett has been a tremendous player every year. Keep your political BS to yourself.

He didn't once refer to Bennett's political stance, he referred to his ever tiresome offsides situation. Shows a huge lack of self-discipline... I don't think I need to say anymore.
Yep. This team could easily win the Superbowl if they would just scheme around what they have. Scheme even a little for sh*t sake.Osprey":yavk67ed said:
Hence why now I'm pissed and have no hope, and hope for change until the second best coach in the NFL is no longer here. Color me a sad panda.

Talk about an overreaction to criticism. While I think cutting a quality player over repeated offsides penalties is gross hyperbole, insinuating that criticism of his inability to stay onsides game after game is somehow a comment on his misguided attempt at relevancy outside of football is an overreach.

I'm not sure if Belichick has echoed this sentiment, but Brady has definitely said he believes Michael Bennett is the best defensive player in the league.... I'm sure even the Pats would be willing to put up with some offsides penalties for the level of production Mike B brings to the table. Also, he only had one offsides penalty this game. I've noticed that Cliff and Clark have been committing an unusually high number of those penalties, as evident today.

Well I guess the offense is apparently great now so there's that.

The Patriots also aren't sentimental about their players. I'm beginning to think that paying through the nose to keep the beloved LoB together is holding the offense back.

Yea but how can you know that?
Of course winning fixes everything.
By the way, the Patriots defense sucks this year, they aren't winning no super bowl.
