The biggest lesson hapless Jets can take from rival Patriots rebuild
NY Post
Remember when the Patriots were the Jets’ daddy?
Remember Bill Belichick and Tom Brady and the dynasty that delivered six Super Bowls, 16 AFC East titles and playoff berths in 17 of 19 seasons that turned what was a spicy AFC East rivalry between the two to something akin to the Harlem Globetrotters vs. the Washington Generals?
The Patriots were 37-9 against the Jets under Belichick’s watch.
And now, after a post-Brady lull, the Patriots appear to be back at it again in New England with a different cast of characters.

The alliance between the Mara Family and the Tisch Family has, by and large, been the gold standard for all such partnership agreements. From the moment Wellington Mara and Robert Tisch entered into their 50-50 arrangement at the top of the Giants’ organizational flow chart on Feb. 21, 1991, this has been a model affiliation.
