Jonathan Kraft On The Adam Jones Show: Bill Belichick Will Remain Patriots Coach ‘For A Number Of Years To Come’ « CBS Boston

On COMCAST Sportsnet,Bedard was talking about this and sees Bill as not only staying longer than 2013,but he sees Bill as wanting to stay on after Brady retires to try and win another SB without Brady at QB.

If Belichick can pull that off and win another after Brady retires,then Move aside Vince Lombardi because that trophy should change names to the Belichick Trophy even if he doesn't win another with Brady.

That would be sweet!

Does anyone know anything about BB's mysterious contract?

Re: jonathan kraft on belichick contract
 

I figured that we'd be hearing something leak pretty soon, not just b/c it's the time of year when many speculate about him winning another SB and retiring, but also b/c he was extended in the 2007 season and it is getting to be time again.

The only thing we really know about it is that he was extended during the second week of the 2007 FTW Spygate season.

I am unsure about the specific terms as to how long it was, but I think it was a 5-6 yr extension. Of course it may have been a 5 yr extension that also included a final year and did not take place until 2008. That would make this 2012 season the final year of his deal.

I am sure that some of the other posters have more specific info about the details of his 2007 extension, but by all accts and purposes, his deal was/is set to run out soon.

That is probably one of the reasons why it is coming up now too.

We also know that he was the highest paid coach in the NFL at 7.5 million per season, until Sean Payton reupped with the Saints last week. I believe Payton is making slightly more, approx. 8 million per.

Re: jonathan kraft on belichick contract
 

Mr. Kraft knows what he has in BB, and being a shrewd businessman he will take very good care of Bill.. as he has brought this team to prominence, which translates into more equity for the Kraft Family..

I suspect that the Krafts will reup BB, and he will be the highest paid coach in the NFL...

A brilliant post in my opinion :rocker:

Re: jonathan kraft on belichick contract
 

As a not-so-minor point, that's when they announced his extension. To give you an idea how secretive they've been about Belichick's contracts: when they announced that extension back in 2007, people weren't sure when his current contract actually expired!
