Okay, I am more and more of the opinion that IF (I know, I know, doubtful) they can get BB to not serve as GM, or at least let someone else take over offensive player selections, they should retain him as coach. I think it is more and more clear that the main problem is Jones, and whatever responsibility BB bears for that, there has been more than enough time for Jones to better than he is. That aside, IF there is a desire to move on from BB, the quesiton is, how to do it as elegantly as possible.
THis is definitely an "out there" trial balloon, but Robert Kraft has recently invested in bolstering the premier lacrosse league, and BB is known to love lacrosse, maybe even as much as football originally. He once said if he had not become a football coach, he would have likely wanted to coach lacrosse. Is there any way Kraft could somehow give BB a nice position, of whatever sort, in the league or on a team or whatever, that would allow him to take part in possibly being part of developing the profile of lacrosse, and thereby giving his legacy a new twist? Everyone would understand it was a way to land softly from losing the Pats job, but still, imagine if Tebow had succeeded in baseball, this certainly would have softened the critique of his pro football experience. BB will always be considered one of if not the greatest, but this would be a way to move on, in a way that was transparent but still allowed there to be an interesting twist to his legacy, especially if things really took off with the league. I am not sure what the role would be. While I doubt BB would be interesed in such a radical move, who knows, it might allow him to explore something he has always wished a little bit he could be more involved with.
