Belichick out in New England

Hope he straight up retires. Anything other than winning a SB somewhere else would be seen as 'proof' he had failed and the game has passed him by.

Parting ways from Bill would leave a huge void in the Patriots organization. They would have to hire a GM and a HC to replace BB.

Yes, I think that'd be the right thing, but, who knows?

My guess is that they're going to hire Vrabel to be HC.

The drive that led BB to the success he had, is the same drive that will keep him from retiring. You don't just turn that off.

He was just as instrumental in the Patriots success as Brady was.

My guess out of left field is they hire Bill O'Brien to be HC.

I would retire if I were him. He's proven everything already, and he's old and rich. Why not just travel to some fun and interesting places and enjoy life?

The way Brady just popped on to Tampa Bay and won the Super Bowl may suggest is was Brady and not Belichick to credit for the Patriots success.

Not really, Tampa had everything except a competent qb at the time. It was a wise decision by Tom but not a difficult one.

I could see that, but a lot of Pats fans that I know want Vrabel.

Saban and Belichick leaving Football at the same time. Quite the changing of the guard in both NCAA and NFL.

The game does not pass by great coaches. Great coaches make the game.

Tampa had the top 3 offense the year prior to Brady joining them. Everything was in place for him.

Winston's 30 interceptions killed the 2019 season and made the defense look far worse than it was.

Brady got picked 3 times in the divisional round and that defense saved his butt.

I completely agree but you know how the media and these message boards work, for some reason it has to be stated that the Pats dominated because of Tom OR Bill, never both. How about the other 52 players and several other coaches too?

It takes a team to win.

 

[America's Cowboy]

Meh. He got caught cheating......twice.

It’s going to be fun to watch Green Bay and new England return to the basement where they belong.

Belichick the reason why he was so great for so long. In my opinion he had the Moxie to trade his first round talent for first round draft picks and he just kept collecting them over the years. And then he lost his recruiting staff. Started making wrong choices. We have one of the best recruiting guys in the league. Not everybody has a Will Maclay.

 

[zrinkill]

Brady made this guy

I don’t believe he cheated. Deflate ball that was a joke.
