Won’t have near the same impact unless it’s written on a napkin.This is a pretty good statement, well written. Might get something extremely similar from the Pats organization soon.

Is “shook” like “pumped”?This was one helluva surprise. As the kids would say “I’m shook”. The statement gives off the impression that Carroll wanted to take a step back. Shocking development.
Carroll's personality is well suited to a front office if he can still interact with players. That was his superpower.This one is a surprise... I'm not sure what else he could have done, seemed to still be doing a good job. He's also 72, it sounds like they told him they want to move on from him and he said he's too old to start up in a new city so wanted to stick around in a gig upstairs.
The Pats did that to several other teams too.
Go ask Ricky Proehl for starters.
The question is what does “advisor” mean? Someone who hangs around providing input for the organization and helping set the culture? Or someone who is just paid to sit at home to avoid it looking like he’s been fired?Unexpected, but relatively classy way on part of owner to keep him on in organization and go younger /more energetic / young-player relatable coach at same time.
…. model for Kraft???

So you'd take Bill as a front office guy?Too old, just like Belichick. These dudes need to be put out to pasture, or shifted to the front office strictly as consultants.
Is it? Well ****. I thought it meant to be surprised, gobsmacked, taken aback. I dont ****ing know man.Is “shook” like “pumped”?
Or “jacked”?

He is a HOF coach IMO.The Patriots denied him a probably dynasty and will very likely be why he doesn't make the HOF.
Pretty much how it probably went down. People thinking Belichick can easily start over somewhere else don't think through what that actually means logistically.This one is a surprise...

What? That reads like it was written by a 1st year Arts student.This is a pretty good statement, well written. Might get something extremely similar from the Pats organization soon.
