Ex-Patriots All-Pro Hints Bill Belichick Joining an Unexpected Super Bowl Contender in 2024

[stilltheguru]

McCarthy is better than Belichick...lol. OK, you've completely swallowed the kool-aid...

You need his next stop to put the nail in the coffin. These past 3 years weren't enough. Hope he goes to Washington

 

[Redsfan_83]

Not a chance he's a control freak and never would this work.. Edelman is sans clue

 

[JoeKing]

How are the Cowboys an "unexpected" Super Bowl contender?

 

[ThatJerryKid]

Are you trying to convince us that the Philadelphia Eagles are thinking of firing their coach who just took him to a Super Bowl and they're in the playoffs with double digit wins?? I'm pretty sure that's not happening..

Yes that is what I am telling you. If the Eagles falter in the playoffs their coach is getting fired.

 

[CanadianCowboysFan]

Nah he's washed

 

[Walker]

Cowboys going to lock him up

 

[Zekeats]

Hope he goes to Philly or NY. Without Brady, He's Rich Kotite.

Ouch, so lazy. Don't forget he won 2 SBs with Simms and Hostetler. Lemme guess those were all LT and Parcells. He's had terrible QB play. When Brady went down Cassell won 11 games. Garrapalo got insanly over valued do to Bill. It was the perfect match which is why they won 6 together out of 9 chances.

The Eagles head coach is peculiar, but after a Super Bowl appearance, the loss of both their OC and DC to head coaching jobs, Philly goes into the final day of the regular season and only two teams have more wins than they do. And the choice of the new OC and DC was not solely his. Probably not going to be fired. He’ll be named as one of the “on the hot seat” head coaches going into next season, though.

If the Patriots part with Belichick immediately after their game could he be ready to coach Dallas in the first round of the playoffs?

 

[coult44]

During an appearance on FS1’s “The Herd,” former Patriots player Julian Edelman dismissed the idea of Belichick joining the Carolina Panthers but instead suggested that he should consider coaching the Dallas Cowboys. Edelman emphasized the Cowboys’ top-tier offensive line and talented roster, suggesting that Belichick’s presence could bring fundamental soundness to the team and improve their performance, especially Considering some of the issues with penalties and clock management that current Cowboys coach Mike McCarthy has faced.

Billy coached “The Goat” and that was the key to his brilliance. Without him he would’ve been average. Just stop with this nonsense. MM has won 36 games in 3 years. If he can get to the NFCCG and put up a fight, he’ll be back.

Seems like the rumors of Belichek being told to leave New England have been pretty strong this whole football season...so it seems like it has legs.

If I have not read wrong...he is signed through next season.

Is Kraft really going to run this guy out of town after a 20 year run and 6 rings? Business is business I guess.

I guess I was under the impression the guy was golden. I guess Kraft sees his team and Belichek as taking too long to get Bill his Most Wins Ever feat...so might as well run him out of town instead of treading water for 3 or 4 more year until Bill gets his accomplishment.

Another thing...Bill seems like a football wizard. His knowledge seems like it would cost a premium. Is it not possible to have a him as the HC title but some other young fiery hungry guy under him calling the shots but getting advise from Bill. I know I know...you all are going to say that you cant have a hierarchy like that because when someone messes up know one knows who to blame and it causes resentment and morale issues with the underlings.

Just hard to believe the guy is getting run out of town.

Maybe its because Bill supposedly was the guy wanting to cut Brady? Didnt that cause issues with Kraft? Bill got his way...Brady went on to win a Super Bowl elsewhere and now what Bill did to Brady is happening to him?

The guy only needs 17 wins to break the record. New England cant wait?

If Quinn were to leave and he would be looking for a less pressure job he may be an ideal D coordinator asst head coach

 

[reddyuta]

not going to happen.can see a control freak like Belichek who has complete say in the draft too working under another control freak in Jerry?

 

[VaqueroTD]

Belichick is a much better coach than people are giving him credit for. Sure, he has the GOAT at QB, but he still has to win with all the other starters, including some of his great defenses.

Also, he has gone from GOAT to career backups. LOL Big drop off. Giving the Cowboys a run for their money on those days when we were desperate to find an Aikman replacement.

Some things that might prevent his success:

1. Oh yeah, that dude Mike McCarthy isn't exactly a failing coach, and might still win it all! We're writing this thread like he's one and done. Let's at least wait for the results from the Skins game first. We lose that game and the NFC East, it's a foregone conclusion Big Mac is on his way out without a Super Bowl to save him.
2. Belichick loves to be the GM and run his personnel in detail. I keep hearing from Pats fans that they think it's a reason why he is failing now. It's one thing to lose Brady, but with his age getting up there, he just doesn't have the energy anymore to also be the GM. Parcells used to be like that too, but relented to Jerry/Stephen/etc, so I could see Belichick possibly compromising in old age too.
3. Here's the biggest knock - Big Mac is sort of a player's coach. Will listen to his players and change as needed. It's a reason why he is one of the oldest coaches now, because it's usually the first thing to strike down old coaches. I don't think Belichick has that in him. And he doesn't have the personality and button pushing ability like Parcells and Jimmy to overcome it. It would also be a big change for the players who were used to it from McCarthy. Even Jimmy once said you can go hard to soft, but not the other way. Not to say Coach Mac is soft, because he ISN'T. But he is much more of a people person than Coach Mumbles and chemistry in that locker room is extremely important.

Ignorant stuff.

Yup. The stupid is strong in this thread. What's next, Mahomes sucks?

 

[DandyDon52]

Yes Dallas needs another below .500 retread coach.

Bill Belichick record without Tom Brady is 29-37. He has not won a playoff game since Brady's departure.

he hasnt had much to work with, thats why brady left, the team was almost devoid of talent.

 

[FanofJerry]

Id never give Bill power over Will McClay in a draft. Ever.

 

[FanofJerry]

Brady was great...not taking anything away from him.

But he bolted to a stacked Tampa team.

Its funny how all these NBA players like Kevin Durant get crucified for bolting to stacked teams....Brady does it and people turn the other way as if it didnt happen.

 

[kskboys]

Id never give Bill power over Will McClay in a draft. Ever.

Belly is a great D coach. He's not great at any other aspect, and he sucks at drafting.

And who's fault is that? The answer is comical.
