Just easy link from NFL but it goes to the mutual respect between BB and Rex that exists in spite of fans trying to make them out to be enemies.....BB has never exhibited the antipithy towards Rex that he showed to Ratgini.....and Rex returns it in this short interview:
NFL Videos: Rex: 'I want what Bill Belichick's got'
I don't know why some Pat's fans give Rex so much crap.....you are judged by the quality of your opponents.....Rex gives the Pats a reason to excell.....doubt it....take a look at the Pats defense this year as compared to last....BB is rising to the challenge.....and will take care of business...
AMEN, Brother!!! :rocker:
Anyone who
actually reads the entire quotes know that we have NOTHING to complain about from Coach Ryan. He is a TREMENDOUS Coach, and, despite the media's attempts to paint him as doing otherwise, the truth is that he has treated his rivals ~ including Coach Bill ~ with nothing but respect from DAY ONE.
He and Coach Bill seem to genuinely like each other, and there's certainly no question about their mutual respect.
Which is not to say that Coach Bill won't lay as many 40 Burgers on him as he possibly can!! :rocker:
But I find the universal disdain for'm around here a bit amusing, boys...
Y'all know damned well that if he was
our Coach, most of you would
worship the guy...and rightfully so.
As it is, though, he's going up against the greatest Coach of the modern age...One who I believe will eventually go down in History as the greatest
ever, by most...And one who has a very strong record against even the most
formidable adversaries...including none other than the legendary Bill Walsh.
And he managed his astonishing success against Coach Walsh during Joe Montana's
prime.
And Coach Ryan's recent success against Coach Bill has been, lest we forget, during a transitional phase for this team...one that is that now nearly complete.
All of which is to say: Coach Ryan ~ who I
do revere ~ is the toast of the league, right now, generally perceived as being either poised to pass Coach Bill by, or as even having
already done so...Yet I believe, despite his recent great success, particularly against us, that ~ provided Sanchez remains his QB ~ it will be
years before he beats Coach Bill again.
