Patriots Owner Robert Kraft warned Falcons not to trust Bill Belichick

[Risen Star]

#Falcons owner Arthur Blank called #Patriots owner Robert Kraft after his first meeting with Bill Belichick this offseason for their HC job.

Kraft warned Blank not to trust Belichick.

A source close to Belichick said Kraft "was a big part" of why the Falcons passed on hiring him this offseason.

A spokesman for Kraft strongly denied that Kraft said anything disparaging.

Wonder what happened between those two? Maybe Kraft blames Bill for driving away Tom to TB.

Wouldn't this be a form of tampering that the owners always get upset about?

its ok if THEY do it. A wink, a nod, and a tug...in Krafts case.

He does. Pretty obvious from The Dynasty that there’s some resentment towards BB for how the Brady era ended.

remember this from a guy that went to so called massage parlors knowing full well what was actually going on there
Kraft is a POS and no surprise he carries a grudge. This coach got him six Lombardi's and this is how he repays him

No.

No.

Whats the difference?

Frankly I do not see the difference. He is working to prevent BB from getting a job.

Tampering is messing with players who are currently under contract. It's trying to get them to leave where they are contracted to.
This is just someone checking an employment reference.

at Atlanta. Don't trust the most successful coach in NFL history.

Wrong. Tampering also applies to coaches.

Okay. But not Bill as he was not under contract.

This is hiring 101.

Kraft supports human trafficking. Not exactly a guy I'd want an opinion from regarding another person's character.
