-BB is making $4.2M this season.
-The Patriots voted down defensive radio last year. All the other teams who did had coaches with defensive backgrounds as well.
When I did some research on the vote, one of the most valid points against was the problem with substitution/injury that happens all too frequently in the defense, to make one designated player with a headset feasible. This seems to be the main point that caused the 10 negative votes.

There was a vote in March to have radios like the quarterbacks have in the helmet of one defensive player. The vote fell a couple votes shy. Would you be in favor of something like that?
"There are pros and cons to everything like that. It was a pretty close vote. There are plusses and minuses."
What would be some of the drawbacks defensively?
"You don't know who's going to be on the field. How many are you going to have? It's a lot easier with the quarterback position. Every team has a quarterback. It's a lot different on defense. It's not necessarily one guy."
Um... no, peg. Three teams voted no, not ten. I don't know what the other two teams reasons were, but it's obvious why Belichick voted how he did.
