Looks like it took only a year for Belichek to have enough of the show. The pattern continues.

It was strictly a money issue. The Pats never let salary structure interfere with the locker room. Bennett is a free agent, was a rental player, and wants 8-9 million per year. The Pats won't pay him more than Groningen, and they don't want to give Gronk a raise. So they just found another #2 TE, this time one who's locked up for next 2-3 years.

Get your ring and leave NE. Why stay, they aren't paying you if you're not Brady. Media and agents trying to link Desean Jackson to Dallas and NE. For 11M? Nope.

Bennett openly said after winning the Super Bowl that he was going to follow the money. That wasn't going to be the Patriots. Especially since he had nagging injuries all year.

Look at this hater exaggerating what really is going on. He's going to get more money than what the Pats are willing to pay which is nothing new. Let that bitterness go lol

The Patriots also want him to get a big cash deal because that means they get a good comp pick.

A comp pick of comparable value to what they traded for Allen
. Who already had the expensive 1st season of his contract paid by the Colts.

The Patriots aren't mad at Bennett, it all went exactly to plan.

With the Cowboys, underperforms when given opportunity, however few. Leaves and openly talks crap about a guy he couldn't beat out.

Goes to a Giants team desperately in need of a TE. Shows real potential, but not worth the attitude he brings. They let him walk a year later.

Goes to Chicago, again, shows to be a quality TE on the field. But not resigned and immediately openly trashes the QB.

Signs with NE. Let me guess.....1 and done.

Just stating facts. Read about what or who he hated in NE and who did him wrong in a few weeks. Bitterness is all his.

The pattern continues.
