Leadership is hard because it means you have to tell people they’re not good enough. Everyone can’t be the best. Too many leaders today are afraid to have difficult conversations. This will forever be my favorite Saban clip.

We really don't give Aaron Rodgers enough credit. To me, he's the most valuable player on any team. There are maybe 3 QBs in the NFL that could even come close to making the Packers this good, and if you put him on any other team in the NFL, he'd make them better.

The Bucs went through the Saints (Payton/Brees), Packers (LaFleur/Rodgers), and Chiefs (Reid/Mahomes). They allowed 18.3 points over those 3 games, scored an average of 30.6 points, and won by an average of 12.3 points per game. What a phenomenal run.

Let this be a notice to all offensive coordinators: If you’re “running the ball to help your QB” but the run isn’t effective, all you’re doing is hurting your QB. You’re forcing him into known passing situations. And if Brady can’t consistently overcome them, neither can your QB.
