Apparently this is one of Bill's conditions to remain on the team.

2023=2000
2024=2001

As long as Mac Jones never plays another down for this team. I think this is where you and I agree a lot. Mac is just a terrible QB.

Why is this team so obsessed with bringing back old coaches? It’s okay to get some fresh blood on this team

yes, I don't get it either, people here want BB gone but request McDaniels to come back, **** that, I don't want to have anyone back from those coaches, especially McFail and BigMactricia

I’m okay with Mcdaniels to a point but please not Matt Patricia. He isn’t good and he brings a bad vibe to the team. Players clearly do not like him

It's satire.

Ahhh. I think I fell for it because it’s something this Patriots team would do with bringing back old coaches

 

[PatsFan2]

Apparently this is one of Bill's conditions to remain on the team.

So BB is still here and bringing back his lackeys that should go over well with the season ticket holders. Really hope it's a rumor.

I think that every inadequate player has things they can improve upon to become better players. But decision making, recognition and split second choices of the right decision at the QB position is no different than size, strength or speed at other positions. He lacks those tools.
Just like you can’t make an undersized DL bigger so he doesn’t get pushed around despite whatever other skills he has, or a make a slow corner who is technically sound faster, I don’t think 10 is fixable.

 

[VJCPatriot]

Harbaugh is the only intriguing prospect.
But he was suspended 2 different times this year
The “Cheaters“ theme will be in full swing with that move

Did that affect any of our championships? Not really. At the end of the day, Hire the best man for the job.

I'm very interested to see how this shakes out. Certainly Michigan's thorough win over Washington in the national championship game yesterday just adds to the credentials of a Harbaugh for a head coaching job in the NFL.

If that's really the case then he can go. UGH, Patricia again, really?!

That X account is satire.

For the guys who want Bill gone…are you sweating yet?

I was done with him after the Bears game last year. I sorta went along with him a bit longer because people told me he could be fixed but at this point I don’t care if he’s fixable or not. I don’t like his face and maybe that isn’t fair but we need him off this team

 

[archstanton543]

For the guys who want Bill gone…are you sweating yet?

Sweating? No. When they keep him, I'll just chuckle to myself and anticipate another high draft pick next year. And get ready for the Pats to trade down and take a defensive lineman in the 20's.

 

[lancerman]

For the guys who want Bill gone…are you sweating yet?

No I'm laughing. If Bill stays, you're about to get an upgrade at QB and still find out this isn't a playoff team

I don't want Bill gone because his name is Bill Belichick. I want him gone because of results. His coaching has been declining the last 5 years and his GM'ing has been DOA for a decade at this point. If he showed me anything the last few years to change that opinion, I'd be fine with him staying

I think the jury was out on whether he could be fixed until
about the Colts game this year.

If you have a RB with no vision but you only run him inside on quick hitters and have a good OL he will look fine until the defense figures out his limitations. He will still make plays but his issues will increasingly deteriorate his play. That’s what you have with 10. But it took time to determine it wasn’t correctable.

Regarding the Pats trade of Jimmy G to SF - Belichick has a relationship with Shanahan and went through him to get the deal done.

As far as the top pick goes, Kraft is going to go 1996 on Bill and override him if he tried to trade down for a DL. Bob will tell him to take a QB.

And if the QB doesn't work, it's going to be a Mac situation where it will be heavily implied that a QB was forced on Bill so that nobody on the coaching staff has to take responsibility for a failed development
