How much longer will BB coach?

[Actual Pats Fan]

26 to catch Shula for the overall wins (including playoffs) lead. That one is more doable I think.

Adding four more right now will help

 

[Patnation21]

He'll need 5 or 6 more years. Most coaches don't continue into their 70's so his years are numbered. I give him 5 tops. 75 sounds right, health permitting.

 

[PATSYLICIOUS]

4 more years will get him past shula so thats my optimistic prediction

4 years to win 33 games is optimistic?
you think 33-35 is optimistic for Bill Belichick?

him coaching 4 more years is optimistic for me. At age 70, Id gladly take 4 more years.

It's actually very impressive how Shula has so many wins to catch up to, given how successful BB has been

 

[Ivan]

I guess it’s 39 more wins to go. I would take 2 more rings over it, but both are acceptable as well.

 

[BUSTAMOVE]

BB will coach till ne passes Shula. He loves Football history and wants to be on top of history.
26 wins can be minimum 2 years (unlikely but doable) Definitely 3 years. If he stays successful who knows how long he will stay. As long as he stays successful and healthy his obsession with football will be hard for him to drag himself away

 

[BUSTAMOVE]

I had previously seen 26 wins. Now I see that was for playoffs also.
Add another year or two to my totals for regular season wins

Especially since he coached a massive chunk of his career in teh 14 game era.

Shula was 33 years old when he started his head coaching career. He coached 32 years between the Colts and Dolphins before retiring at 65. He then was able to enjoy the fruits of his labor and be lauded for his accomplishments for another 25 years until his death in 2020.

He also had 33 seasons to do it as opposed to Bill's 26.

Shula was a great coach. His steakhouse not so much.

Elway has a decent Steakhouse

 

[*ChungFu*]

I didn't really expect BB to coach this long, but since he has I'd guess 75 is his max age. That could be shortened by another title.

 

[zipster9]

IF the Patriots win the SB this year (very long shot), I think he will retire as HC.

Guess is that McDaniels will take over as HC very soon. Within 2yrs.

 

[PatsFanInVa]

I want him to Marv Levy this biotch

 

[PatsFanInVa]

By the way if you ever wondered how old Marv Levy was, the priestly tribe among the Israelites when the 12 tribes wandered over from Egypt was called the Levites.

They're named after him.

 

[GreenCow]

After he passes Shula with 49 more wins.

He loves NFL history. Being at the top of that list matters to BB whether he admits to it

I hope he gets it. He deserves it.

GOAT coach.
