Bill Belichick and Robert Kraft will hold a press conference at Noon ET today.
What does that last part mean ?ESPN is claiming they've agreed to part ways, Belichick still wants to coach and anyone who hires him will not have to compensate the Patriots (Belichick is under contract)
I'm surprised Kraft is making this call. Either Bill refused to give up GM responsibilities or there's a coach out there Kraft wants (Vrabel?)
It's the end if an era. There will never be another 20 year dynasty. Now the roster becomes much more important
No one on earth is giving him that kinda rope.He’s still 15 wins short of the record
that could be 3 or 4 more years of coaching if it’s a bad situation
It would suck to see him still around in 4 years after 3 years of 5 wins or less chasing a record like that when he’s already the coach with more losses then any other in NFL history
What does that last part mean ?
The roster used to not be important ?
from what I read . BB was more than willing to give up GM duties . Kraft basically said thanks but no thanks anyway
I hope he never breaks the record. Impossible to say, but if Billy Boy coached in the 70's, 80's, or 90's, he would not have faired wellHe wants Shula's all-time wins record because he still holds a grudge with a dead guy.
But to be serious I can understand how he doesn't want it to end like this...This part will sadly be very remembered by many, mostly because Tom left and had such great success.
You want my mailing address to send green cash ?The Patriots just parted ways with a guy who was my Father Football. I learned what it takes to win on a football field from Billy Belichick. THe guy needed more time (and earned more time in my opinion) to correct the mess that was this year. When is the last time the Pats had a top ten draft pick? Not in this Belichick era. The Krafts should have given him the one more year on his contract.
Honestly, because of the way this move is endorsed my many I hope the guy goes to any one of the AFC East teams (I think Buffalo is most likely), comes back here to beat us twice next year, then takes that team deep into the playoffs. ANY AFC East team.
I love Bill Belichick. He gave me a glorious twenty plus years. Something that was unthinkable before his arrival.
