The hate in this forum is strong for Belichick. I get it, he lost his fastball Are you telling me that over half the board is going to pretty much discredit everything he’s done here in the last 20+years and that every last bit of it was Brady or Lawrence Taylor with the Giants. This is the part that bothers me.
Again, I get it, the bad drafting has done the team in. It’s probably time to move on. Yes his decision to bench Butler probably cost the team a sb.
However, I think a lot of what the pitchfork crew doesn’t understand about the So called BB loyalists is he did a lot of good things here and gained loyalty for it. Yes, with Brady and yes he was a huge factor just like many other great coaches that benefited from great QBs.
His last real success was with Brady. In 2018 when they played the Rams and Our QB had a less than stellar game, the corners scheme helped a great deal in winning that game.
In the same year, although it took OT to beat the Chiefs and the 2nd half was a circus ride, the coaches did come up with a game plan that confused the hell out of Reid and Mahomes pretty much shutting them out in the first half.
All those Peyton forehead games?
We had the best Qb/coach combo of all time as far as I’m concerned. I refuse to hate on a guy that gave the team everything he could teach. After 2 a days were bargained out the best teacher no longer had the advantage with lesser talent.Guyslike Earthland Moreland and Randall Gay were made serviceable and just about every player knew the game plan for the week just incase a injury or they wanted to play 7 db’s.
Again, his time here is probably done, it is what it is. But it’s not like Bill is naive, he has been quoted in the past as saying “Players win Championships.” He knows this all too well.
