He saw the talent, so you should give him credit.Then he had the guts to trade that 100 mil QB to a division rival for another #1 pick Bledsoe never really hurt us while playing in our division. Thats just one of many moves he made that helped us become the Dynasty for 20 years. Tom 70% but Bill definately 30%.

Perhaps Mr. Kraft should become more familiar with federal employment laws. Just the rumor that he called a potential employer of a former employee and said anything more than confirming he was an employee for what period of time and maybe his job title, anything more is extremely libel and Kraft should be held accountable. In fact, because of the franchise nature of their business, the NFL can be held accountable. They have to learn that they bound by laws just like every other employer in the country.

Don't see them doing much better than a winning season or maybe getting to the playoffs as a wildcard. I'm giving Bill credit as a great defensive coach. Just like Daniel's just don't have what it takes for a headcoach,but give him a good QB and a decent all-around offense and he did wonders with sometimes no stars but Tom and a tight end.

@@ericmorris9818 this is down playing it as in Brady was the only reason they ever got anywhere. I agree it was lightning in a bottle, but Bill took a career stakes gamble on putting out Drew to put in TB12. Even in that fist SB, you cannot honestly say that the defense wasn’t the winning factor there. Bill adapted and changed in his time too. Taking a flyer on what would eventually be a HOF TE in Gronk is a master move. It’s not like it was all offense all the time when the TB got gojng. The 2019 SB was 13-3. Not to mention basically setting the gold standard for special teams. The other guy in here actually said that Bill sucks as a HC. I genuinely don’t understand how someone can have that opinion.

Belichek got lucky with Brady.

[@bobbykiriakidis9753]

New England had a perfect triangle of Kraft who bought the team and saved them from moving then Belicheck had a reprieve from bad first year to get Brady to bail him out and take over. Kraft, Bellicheck, and Brady they got super lucky with everything coming in all at once.Amazing and I am no fan of them

Robert Kraft has destroyed his legacy in record time now because of the documentary and his mouth he will be remembered like Jerry Krause and Jerry jones only won because of a hall of fame head coach and hall of fame quarterback
