I have huge respect for Bill and his legacy as a coach, but am curious on everyone’s thoughts regarding what will happen next season. Speculation seems to be that the Chargers are a likely landing spot.

That being said, does the utter failure of Bill’s coaching tree and closest disciples warrant any concern regarding Bill’s ability to succeed in a new system?

Seeing how many years Patricia, McDaniels, and O’Brian spent with Bill, and how horribly implementing the “Patriot Way” resulted naturally is a cause for concern.

Bill’s results as a head coach are irrefutable and will likely stand the test of time. That being said, was it lighting in a bottle matching a great coach who implemented a system and culture that allowed the greatest QB of all time to thrive, or was Bill truly a football mastermind who could replicate the same success at another team?

Interestingly, I’d argue (minus Brady) this Chargers offense would easily be the most talented squad Bill has ever had top to bottom. How do you think this will play out?
