Well, it's not only about Joan.
1) The Burgundians eventually rallied France. The Rosbifs, being deprived of their dear traitors, were considerably weakened. (As an aside, the Rosbifs believe they have been betrayed by the Burgundians )
2) Joan was far from being the only competent leader during the war. And she wasn't even the one who used the most modern tactics. However, she managed to motivate the French king, and led him to understand that the war wasn't lost. Also notice she died in 1431, 22 years before the last Rosbif debacle.

The Burgundians don't explain the debacle at Agincourt and elsewhere.
