As a Colts fan I’ve never really been jealous of NE for the titles, but I will admit I’ve been jealous of the excitement and intrigue they give their fans. Let’s be clear - I fucking despise New England. But throw out the hate and the cheating and every damn year NE adapts and is different. They change and morph. They acquire talent from any available source and then they adapt their approach to it. There isn’t a do what we do or you can only win by drafting mentality. There is a fix it and adapt mentality. There is a figure it the fuck out mentality. Look at the construction of the Eagles roster and to me it appears the same. That’s what I want. Reich sounds like he has it. Ballard and Eberflus don’t. Time will tell I guess.

I can't throw out the hate and cheating, because that's why I think they succeed.
