    'Voted off the island': Inside Bill Belichick's failed job hunt (ESPN report)

    The series was filmed during the season.

    'Voted off the island': Inside Bill Belichick's failed job hunt (ESPN report)

    The Patriots have had losing records in 3 of the last 4 seasons. Let's be real, Bill didn't not get hired because teams don't care about winning. He didn't get hired because, as much as some people on this board hate to admit it, a lot of people within the NFL don't view Bill Belichick as...

    Tough Road Ahead... 2024 Strength of Schedule...

    Jacoby has never had a winning record as a starter. His best season he was 7-8 and it was on a stacked Colts team that everyone thought would be a major contender if Luck played. So to me it's doubtful either way that if he is the starter the whole way that we are going to do much of anything...

    'Voted off the island': Inside Bill Belichick's failed job hunt (ESPN report)

    Bill definitely has people he leaks news to. Rapp was basically his mouthpiece all of last season, whenever there was a bad report about him, Rapp would come in with some insider take that put Bill in a favorable light. Don't mistake Bill not caring about the press conferences and trying to...

    'Voted off the island': Inside Bill Belichick's failed job hunt (ESPN report)

    It's far better for the story to be "the ungrateful owner who I helped give 6 Super Bowls to badmouthed me and spoiled the pot for my coaching search" than for it to be "Bill Belichick was on the market and the league passed on him.

    'Voted off the island': Inside Bill Belichick's failed job hunt (ESPN report)

    And his coaching performance. Last year his offense and special teams were both bottom of the league. That's not good if you are looking for a HC. You don't hire someone that you think is only going to be an asset on defense. The Patriots haven't been a tight mistake free team for the last...

    'Voted off the island': Inside Bill Belichick's failed job hunt (ESPN report)

    Let's be real, Modell called Kraft and told him not to get Bill. Kraft ignored it. Regardless of whatever Kraft said, the whole league passed on Bill this go around. If they thought they had a better shot with him, they wouldn't care what Kraft said, if he said anything. Bill's performance the...

    How Belichick lost his place in posterity

    That's not what he's saying though. Points per game is a bad metric because it's often used to measure an individual unit when it is far more complicated. Is your defense **** if your team gives up a ton of points because your QB is an INT machine and you constantly are giving up the ball and...

    How To Blow the 2024 Draft

    Whiffing on the QB pick.... If they mess that up they basically wasted their highest draft pick in decades when they had two generational prospects at positions of need they could have otherwise gotten.

    Drake Maye would be the IDEAL pick for the Patriots at #3

    I'm not crazy about Maye. I think he's the best prospect of what's left, but he feels like another Mac Jones type of high floor, low ceiling player.

    Breaking: Diggs traded to Texans

    Damn this might actually close Buffalo's window

    Teams looking to move up in the draft?

    Uhhh there's a lot of posts of "don't complicate this, take a QB"

    Kyle Dugger unhappy with transition tag

    It's more that there is a perception with that tag that others teams don't want to negotiate on another teams behalf. It was the Lamar Jackson issue last year. Nobody wanted to make a play to get him because they felt like anything reasonable would be matched by the Ravens and they'd have to put...

    What would this offseason look like if BB was still here?

    This isn't that unrealistic to be honest. Last year we were expecting a big time offensive draft and we ended up not going offense until pick 107.

    Should we consider drafting Joe Alt in the first round?

    Just remember N'Keal Harry was drafted by us in what ended up being a historically great WR class. There's one absolutely safe WR to take and then one other I would consider a high end prospect. The rest are solid but might never be more than a 2 or 3 and some will bust.
