Ben Coates - Bill Belichick wasn't the coach at the time.
Rod Rutledge - He was the one with Coates, but, again, Belichick wasn't the coach at the time it happened.
Willie Andrews -You were corrected on him
Kevin Faulk - Was given misdemeanor citiation. A far cry from Andrews' antics
It should be noted that Coates wasn't retained by the Patriots after Belichick was hired.
Parcells was the Head Coach. Belichick was just a Coordinator.
Well, since it's the Krafts writing the checks, it really doesn't matter whether Parcells, Carroll, or Belichick was the coach. If Kraft were consistent in the way Christian Peter was handled, Coates would have been gone. The difference is one was a star, the other a draft pick.
And frankly, I believe that Andrews would have been cut for the MJ, regardless of the subsequent weapons charge. In fact, I thought he already had been. The only point is that there is, and always has been, two sets of rules.
And believe it or not, I know who was the Head Coach and who was the Defensive Coordinator of the Super Bowl Giants teams. I could probably give you the rest of the staff too if I thought about it long enough. The point is that BB was responsible for coaching Taylor and putting in the defensive game plan, and that Taylor continually tried to undermine Belichick's authority. Is it okay to undermine Belichick because he was only the DC?
Man, I give you a lot of rope, one, because I don't like to argue about trivial things, like football, and two, because it's obviously a large part of your personality, but I swear sometimes you just like to argue for argument's sake.
