Godspeed, Coach.

An important part of this team's history, not to mention a helluva WR in his day. Very sad.

For the younger crowd, while he inherited a pretty talented roster in 1984 that talent did not translate into wins until he replaced Ron Meyer as HC of the NEP.

Looks like he was 93. What a life he lived....

Unitas to Berry was a heck of a connection back in the 3 yds and a cloud of dust era.

God bless.

I have very fond memories of this coach. He seemed to optimize what the Patriots could do back then, and he had several fine seasons while presiding over a team full of coke addicts!
