McDaniels: 'Wouldn't surprise me' if Belichick coached into his 70s

2 points:

First, maybe this explains the report that Josh wants to explore head coaching after this year.

Second... if true...

When do we get the report about Brady playing into his 60s?

That giant thud sound you heard was the other 31 NFL owners fainting at the very notion.

I'd love to post this link over at Gang Green or Jets Nation... but I fear the loss of human life.




Jets fans are human, right?

No but you might get harassed by PETA.

Even if BB retired at 75 Josh (40) would still be a young-ish Head Coach if he waited to take BB's place.

I wouldn't mind seeing a transition in which BB stayed on as GM and handed over the HC responsibilities to JD.

"So Belichick might coach longer? Don't worry, I won't kill myself.


You think I want to wear this f***ing thing?"

So he's basically saying he wouldn't be surprised if BB lived into his 70's?

The staff discussed this very topic in the "Do Your Job" documentary. Here's the receipt:

I never even considered him retiring before 70. He's 64 now, so I'd bet he has 8-11 more years in him? 6-7 for sure.

Playing Devils Advocate - if BB wasn't willing to be HC (of the Jets) with BP as GM, what makes you think a coach under BB would want to do the same? Honestly I doubt BB would even consider it, just because he was in those same shoes and most likely wouldn't like to put one of his coaches in the same position.

Good question.

Wonder if there is a difference between the relationships of BB/BP and BB/JD?

I don't think BB would think he could just impose the GM/HC arrangement upon McDaniel and think that McDaniel would be automatically OK with it.

what we need to do is get someone in now that will shadow Scar and learn under him before he retires (again)

Well, he's said he didn't want to be coaching into his 70s like Marv Levy did.

I agree although I don't think BB would force his will onto JD. I would like to think that it was under mutual agreement. Possibly including handing over GM to JD after the HC transition was complete.

No way for me to know but you both have raised good points.

I was just speculating a way that would keep JD here until BB retired.

Hoping this is the guy :

Coach Popovich is "a great fundamental teacher of offensive line play"

I met him at a coaching clinic in StL. Incredibly easy guy to listen to, passionate and very at ease talking to a crowd of youth/HS/small college coaches about OL fundamentals. I sat for 3 hours listening to him. Any time he wanted to come back to NE we'd be lucky to get him.

BB already has stated publicly that he won't coach into his seventies.
