Kraft is supposedly upset about the lack of a playoff win. He's going from that to suddenly accepting of losing seasons? At some point Kraft has to put his words into action. If the team is 8-9 again or 7-10 with a last place finish in the division then Kraft is telling Belichick he needs to step down gracefully or he'll be removed.
Every season there's a scapegoat for Belichick... 2020 was Cam (and the resetting of the cap), 2021 was a rookie QB (and the rebuild), and 2022 was Patricia. Next season it will be Mac (and the resetting of the offense).
There comes a point where it has to be acknowledged that all of these scapegoats came about from Belichick's doing. Ultimately, HE will have to take the fall if the poor outcomes continue.
