Mac was the best. As a Patriots fan before becoming an Orangeman, his first year with the Patriots is somewhat lost in the history of Parcells/Belichick (rightfully so in alot of ways). But Dick brought an energy back to the Patriots sorely missing after years of insomnia coaching from the likes of Raymond Berry and Rod Rust.

I remember Dick beating the high flying Oilers at Foxboro in 91 with a td reception from Brockton's own Greg McMurtry. I thought the Patriots were back. Mac was running around like the field like Valvano. As a high school kid that season was the best 6 win team i can remember (i enjoyed it more than some of the sullen Brady seasons at the end when it was unenjoyable to accept a 11 win season).

I loved Mac, loved giving a sad sack Patriots fan some hopium in 1991. It didn't end well but Mac was always well received in New England.

A fitting tribute to the ball coach. God love ya
