Matt Marchese and Donnovan Bennett start the show with James Brown of The NFL Today as they preview the Thursday Night Football game between the 2-10 Patriots and the Kenny Pickett-less Steelers. They discuss if both Bill Belichick and Mike Tomlin deserve more flack for their roster constructions, how difficult it is to be a coach in the modern football era, and if the league suffers from mediocrity. The boys are joined by Steve Buckley of The Athletic to dissect New England’s season, Bill Belichick’s future with the team, and if Mac Jones can still be a successful quarterback in the NFL (31:01)
