Would you be interested in Bill Belichick?

[toldozer]

He's 11 games under 500 if you look at Cleveland and pats since Brady left. I think it's pretty clear who sailed that ship to greatness

It's looking more and more like Brady carried that duo far more than Bill did. 

I think this is a flawed way of viewing the BB/Brady split situation.

A big part of the reason that Brady wanted to leave in the end was because he knew the Patriots needed a talent re-fresh and he didn't want to waste his last couple years on that.  He went to an absolutely stacked TB team that then even brought in more talent on the cheap because they wanted to chase a ring with Brady.

The Patriots run was probably equally on both Brady and BB, for some reason people forget the defensive gameplays that BB has put together over the years to just completely neuter other offenses by constantly being able to take away their best weapon every week.

As a coach maybe, but I wouldn't let him make any personnel decisions, not one.

LoL....Teppers inflated ego would probably jump all over this possibility

Didn't mean something quite like that, more like one of those "advisor to the owner" type of roles where they just pay him to be visible with the Patriots and be someone Kraft can bounce ideas off of.

he isn't quitting till he is ahead of shula in all time wins.

[Xtreme]

Was he a good coach? Sure! But he's past his prime. The new trend seems to be young, offensive-minded guys. That's the route we need to take.

Why would we want him in Charlotte? He has done zip since Brady left, he makes very questionable moves roster wise. We need a YOUNG, offensive minded HC.

[CamWhoaaCam]

He's going to end up in Chicago imo if the Pats let him go.

 

Hopefully Chicago doesn't give him full control because he sucks at everything else besides coaching.

I haven't forgot that but part of the big problem with BB is toward the end, he wasn't giving Brady weapons. BB has been GM/Coach and part of those duties include the refreshing of talent. Defense is great, but since the NFL has shifted to more offense heavy, BB hasn't made that move. He also hasn't been very good at refreshing the talent. Having Brady there chasing rings made it much easier to bring in premium guys at a lower price tag. We view BB differently and thats cool. I consider BB a retread at this point in his career. 5 years ago, no. I think his prime coaching days have passed him by. 

[Day1PanthersFan]

Would be cool, but there is nothing here for him to succeed with, can't think about the draft till 25 , have no elite vets 

And I am starting to think the biggest reason for his success was he had footballs version of Neo putting all the pieces where they needed to be(TB12)

I don't forsee anything good from him coming here , but he could do good somewhere with a franchise QB already in place though

LOL at people calling Belichick a "retread coach"

If there was ever a previous HC that couldn't be considered a "retread" it would be the best coach of all time.

It doesn't matter, as he's never coaching a game for anyone other than the Patriots, when he's done there, he's just done, it would be the weirdest thing ever to see him coach another team, he'll just move into some Patriots front office position.

Have you watched a Patriots game recently?

[dave-o]

He's really not my type but thanks for asking....

Last year, he made Matt Patricia his OC and Joe Judge his quarterback coach.

I wouldn't put him in charge of anything right now.
