Something is tugging at my memory, but I can't quite seem to get a grasp on it.. oh well, it will come to mind eventuallyBob needs to find an outlet to release his pent up stress because clearly he can’t handle this. Any ideas?
Huh?It seems that such a contract would give the team compensation if 2023 is Belichick's last year with the patriots.
That was a long time ago. In the NFL if you don’t get better you get worse because every one else is improving.He didn’t suck when the pats were 15th in yards, 6th in points & 10th in 3rd down completion pct. his rookie year. I’m sure having a bottom 5 OL and the worst WR duo in the NFL has nothing to do with his regression though.
You're almost certainly right. I am snatching a pretty straws and shiny baubles floating n the air.How much should a team trade for a coach that hasn't won a playoff game in 5 years, has built one of the ****tiest rosters in the league, has seemingly lost his ability to get his players to play disciplined football, and is going to be highly resistant to give up his GM duties?
Kradt will get mediocre offers for Bill and consider it an insult and be stuck with him because he won't want to pay Bill to go take a hike
Yes, you're a football genius. That's it!Fun stuff. Best part is I'll have to listen to people who know absolutely nothing about football and have been wrong every step of the way explain why the results aren't his fault
He actually did!He didn’t suck when the pats were 15th in yards, 6th in points & 10th in 3rd down completion pct. his rookie year. I’m sure having a bottom 5 OL and the worst WR duo in the NFL has nothing to do with his regression though. I’m no mac fan either.
Ehhh:I'm actually going to be the voice of reason here, even though I have every reason not to be.
For those who are saying, "Any other coach would've been fired..." : this isn't any other coach. He's the greatest coach in NFL history. The whole league knows that including the fans outside of Boston talk radio.
Secondly, those thinking Mayo was duped aren't taking into account that this contract includes provisions for the transition. Why did Mayo stay? Not because he thought Belichick was going to be fired and that he was going to take over!! But because there are plans for a transition.
Third, every single coach in the NFL is extended beyond his last year. Eating huge coaching contracts is how it's done. This is business as usual. If Kraft wants to fire Belichick, he can still do it. It would be a dumb decision, but there's nothing stopping him.
Fourth, the reason you extend coaches in their last year is because you want your players to know who will be responsible for their careers moving forward, not to mention FAs.
Did you happen to get to watch 6 SB Championships?Great I get to watch Bill not get receivers, have a ****ty line, and screw up another QB. Fun stuff. Best part is I'll have to listen to people who know absolutely nothing about football and have been wrong every step of the way explain why the results aren't his fault
Name someone who has done a better job. We can sit here all day and criticize any decision maker in the NFL, hell in almost any line of work.
The idea that you think the bar is no mistakes is ludicrous.
Tell me who has been better.
I take your point, but IF anything was leaked, it seems to be only that there IS a contract, nothing about its terms. That doesn't seem too out of the box to me, but you are certainly right that there is likely SOME reason for its having been released at this time.This leaked to stop people from having the idea that Bill is going anywhere.
They NEVER leak **** about his contract.
I don't want him gone but I do want someone else picking the players and if they don't compromise that part of the equation then we're ****ed.
Bill came out of last seasons misery and proceeded to have the off-season he had this year. He doesn't get it. Maybe he never did.
