Hire Belchicks son as HC and then pay Bill a consulting fee. Money whip that man!

I could see winning a championship with 2 teams as huge motivation, but it's still a pipe dream.

it would be nice to see BB come here for 3 years to right the ship like Parcells did to setup Wade. It was unfortunate Parcells had one of the worst offensive rosters because our D was on point for most games.

Hiring the dynamic duo after Parcells was another brilliant Jerry decision.

Jerry seems up to something. Two things stood out yesterday.

Jerry was especially sharp with his comments about coaching yesterday after the game. I found that odd for him, especially after losing a game on the road to the almighty Patriots in horrible weather conditions. He normally puts forward a more positive demeanor to the cameras. The Patriots aren't the Jets, and he wasn't like this after the Jets game.

So why this time and not others? Perhaps there are two reasons.
  • I think he's pissed about these stories of Garrett going to the Giants. No doubt that Garrett's agent is sending smoke signals out there with Garrett limping along on a lame-duck contract. After standing behind Garrett for so long, I think Jerry feels betrayed by that. It reminds of when Jimmy openly talked about the Jacksonville job in the 1993 season. That really upset Jerry, who issued the now famous "Any one of 500 coaches could " proclamation.
  • Is Jerry making a play for Belichick next year? Notice how over-the-top Jerry has been lately in lathering Bill Belichick with praise. He's telling stories about missing out on an opportunity to hire him back in the day. He blew mountains of sunshine up Belichick's backside after the game yesterday, claiming it's impossible to out-coach him.
The longstanding rift between Belichick and Kraft, and Belichick and Brady, is well documented. That place is said to be a miserable place to be these days. Could Jerry be looking to re-do the Parcells magic, especially in his aging state with such a talented roster assembled?

We talk all the time about Payton, Riley, Meyer, etc, but there is no more sure thing out there than bringing Belichick in here.

And do you not also find it intriguing how complementary Belichick was of Dak and the ability of this roster and coaching staff? Might he want to come in here and keep some of these coaches on board and take a run with this group? He's no spring chicken either, so if he did leave for another job, the Cowboys offer a roster that doesn't require rebuilding.

Something feels up with all this.

He said the same thing about Peyton and the same about Zim.

Belichick is HIGHLY unlikely to leave the Pats.
Maybe he wants to go elsewhere to prove he can win somewhere else? Well, if so, I bet you the Cowboys are probably the last team he'd go to. He loves having control over personnel, and Jerry giving that up? Not a chance in hell. Plus, the two would clash just like Jerry and Parcells.

I don't think he likes that his success is so tied to Brady.

He traded Garrapolo for nothing because he wanted Brady gone and Kraft wouldn't abide. Belichick gave him away to flip the finger to Kraft. It's been Kraft/Brady versus Belichick for a good while. Brady won't retire, and Kraft won't allow Belichick to go another direction.

It bears watching.
I thought Kraft traded Garapolo because Brady kept saying he was gonna play another 5 years. Belichick didnt want to trade him.
