If the Patriots let Belichick go, they are idiots. Boy would I love to see the Giants turned over to Belichick. He is, in my opinion, the greatest coach in NFL history. He has completely eclipsed Lombardi (who, like Belichick, was a coordinator for the Giants before going on to fame as a head coach). Tom Landry was the Giants defensive coordinator at the same time Lombardi was the offensive coordinator, and both left at the same time to coach the Cowboys and Packers, after they had won a title with the Giants as coordinators. Belichick was the defensive coordinator and assistant head coach under Parcels, and won two championships. Both times the Giants were left with incompetents to replace their head coach who retired right after the three famous coordinators left (Ali Sherman and Ray Handley). The coordinators we lost went on to win north of ten combined titles as head coaches. It would be unbelievable to see Belichick come back to the Giants!!! But I just can't see the Patriots ownership being that stupid. Kraft is too smart to let Belichick go.
It's not a question of them letting him go, it's more a question of whether he'll up and quit or if this is the last year of his contract and he won't sign on for another few years as no one seems to know his contract status.
All they were talking about today on Sports radio was how Kraft stuck his nose in on this and told BB to trade Jimmy G and how he was not to trade Brady, Kraft wants him to be a Patriot for life.
If this is true, this is the second time he meddled, the first time was with Parcells and we all know what happened there, he went to the Jets. The Patriots won 5 Super Bowls by being cold and running things very business like with zero loyalty to any one player, so why the 180 for Brady? If they traded him in the off season, who knows what sort of haul they could have gotten, then sign Jimmy G and they'd be in business for another 5 to 10 years. This bone headed trade with the 49ers where they traded away a franchise QB for a lousy 2nd round pick has Kraft written all over it, BB is not that ****ing dumb.
Belichick covets that Giants job, so who knows.
As the saying goes, all things end badly or they wouldn't end.
This dynasty has to come to an end at some point; it is what it is, the last time this team went into the playoffs with a huge distraction hanging over their heads was Deflategate.......................and we all know how that ended up.
I way, way overacted to Deflategate, so I'm not going to lose any sleep over this, I made a mountain out of a molehill regarding Deflategate, all for nothing in the end.
One thing that was floated on talk radio was that he was trolled by his sources and that none of this is true.
That's a load of crap; personally, I think this story has legs and Kraft once again has screwed the pooch.
As one host pointed out today, McDaniels has interviewed for the Giants job; IF he is offered the job and does not take it, then BB is as good as gone, Louis will lose his **** and McDaniels will be promoted to HC of the NEP.....................
