Bill Belichick Press Conference 7:30am (1/8/24)

[festy1986]

If he doesn't announce his departure here then he's going no where.

It would be pretty petty of Kraft to let him go out there for media availability just to fire him later in the day.

It's possible Bill wants to get this out of the way before some of the media even gets there and get out of here without having to take any accountability.

I assume he's staying though because it would be pretty nuts for him to be out there addressing anything Patriots related known he's out the door.

The longer this lingers I think he’s back. Rap and massive and bedard all coming out with stories that there’s a chance he admits his mistake and agrees to major front office concessions.

He may. At 72 who wants to upend everything when you have 2 years left? And your family in the organization?

And Kraft can sell it to the fans as “transitioning “ to a post Bill era.

He is leaving.

The way that he left the field yesterday said it all. This press conference before the rooster crows is also indicative that BB does not want to make a big production out of 1 person leaving. Team first.

This is the only real way he comes back. They need to overhaul the front office and get a real GM that can handle hiring a scouting staff.

Leaving with 0 accountability sounds about right for Bill

Yeah, BB did always blame everyone else.

Its OK, BB will have a new job pronto.

[RobertWeathers]

I wish it wouldn't end this way.

Bill said he likes coaching an everything about it.

Here we go.

Some owner just won the lottery

Probably the most repugnant thing I've read over the past few months... Gratz, that's quite the accomplishment

 

[RobertWeathers]

Some owner just won the lottery

I think he is burnt out and needs a break.

Bill will improve whatever situation he walks into.

The question is how much.

 

[festy1986]

He's the one who walked out the door not even acknowledging the fans known he put forth a disgusting roster.

Maybe save your hyperbole for something that actually matters. That was embarrassing.

Poor baby. God you are so entitled.

Bill is old. Hes lost his fastball. Get over it.

A lot

His methods still work. Defense still wins championships

He needs someone to run the offense. There is no question about that.

Sorry my guy. He has 25 million reasons not to be an ******* out the door.

Entitled is a great word for Bill.

There is no way there would be a decision this fast. They didn't even have a chance to meet. Kraft wasn't going to fire Belichick overnight. That would be a bad look. Kraft is going to want to make it look like it was a longer process to make the decision even if they have already made up their mind.

Decisionsl that fast?

The decision was made weeks ago.

Hes an ******* because you don't like him. Awwww
