Bill passed on A.J. Brown and DK Metcalf to draft N'Keal Harry. Belichick has drafted just one All Pro since 2013. Brady haters want to argue that Bill's defenses "carried" Tom, while Belichick's defenses never carried Drew Bledsoe, Matt Cassel, Cam Newton, Mac Jones, or Bailey Zappe to a super bowl. You can't make this stuff up. Tom carried Bill because he kept his offenses on the field to rest his defense.

And with Bucs he couldn't put up more then 13 points vs the rams. As for Bill, last few seasons proved he's not superhero either, his rebuilding and drafting was not that successful, the team went down under his watch, he has to take his part of the blame as well. Still, I believe no team can stay on top for few decades, Pats would go down sooner or later, with or without Bill and Brady.

Man, there's something special about Shula! 😄NO ONE has caught him with the '72 perfect season (Bill's Patriots came the closest when they went 18-1 several yrs ago). It looks like his total wins record may be safe, as well. Bill is only like 14 games back, but if he sits out this year, depending on where he goes next year (if it's a rebuild) that may take 3 seasons. That's 4 yrs for a 72 year old coach.

If I recall correctly, it was something like, if the two passed each other in the hallways, Mr. Kraft would always have to speak first, kind of a thing. I would imagine that VERY few billionaires have the type of ego that would tolerate things like this, championships be damned. Personality MATTERS. Don't think so? Look at the 3 major North American sports........ALL who fired Hall of Fame coaches (with tens, if not hundreds of millions of dollars on the line).......who were STILL winning.......due to ego. Joe Torre mid-2000's New York Yankees, Phil Jackson 1998 Chicago Bulls, Jimmy Johnson mid 90's Dallas Cowboys. IF that is true (and I absolutely believe that it is)........add to Belichick's lack of success with the Browns, post Tom Brady lack of success, poor record as a GM the last 5 years, his poor coaching tree, his age, the amount of control he is purported to want, AND being a defensive minded coach, in an offensive league.........taking all these factors into account, I am NOT surprised that no halfway decent teams are clamoring to hire him. He's a potential headache AND a short-term solution.

Everyone keeps listing Bills accolades like we don't know them. But they fail to realise that those very accolades are the reason no one is hiring him. First of all every team is asking themselves, "Is Bill still hungry enough to fight for a championship". After all he has eight already!! Like really, do y'all think he's really gonna be that invested or hurt if he doesn't win one more? Not really. It's pay day and vacay time for Bill. And secondly, every coach has his prime. And it's pretty clear Bill is past his. Guys had had ample time to study his antics, style, plays, etc. He's just not that effective anymore. He's still a great coach no doubt. The greatest, yes no doubt. But he's past it. It's time. It's time for him to take on a GM role.

[@03Man11]

He’s going to be 72 years old. Teams not trying to do short term hires.

[@whatyousayd3504]

Did you not see his last 4 seasons

[@williamharp6943]

Roflmao the league tried to sweep spygate under the rug and the simple fact is that no other owner was to taint their organization with the Greatest cheater in nfl history

[@freefly82]

He was the best (with Brady in the team), but in a different era. On the current one he would be my last choice

[@rebmoti1]

The Cowboys were the right job for Belichek but Jerry Jones effed it up

[@bill2953]

Always count on Bart Scott to run it down like it is.

[@joeruiz4010]

Scott is a fool. He gave Belichick 90% of the credit for NE's Dynasty even after Superbowl 55; when Tom won with Tampa. He still pushed that "System-QB" B***S***!!

I think what people are missing is that Belichek doesn't want any job. I think he wants the right job

[@mattcarberry368]

no i think you're still missing the obvious fact that nobody is interested in an antiquated dinosaur who literally just had 4 years to rebuild his own team fully in his own image and FAILED F-*-*ING MISERABLY AT IT there is no "right job" in the modern NFL for a guy who still values special teams over offense, there is no "right job" in the modern NFL for a 72 yr old dictator who can't work well with others and isn't open to adapting his methods........... how do people not get this lol he has a great name and a great resume, but in 2024 and beyond HE LITERALLY SUCKS AS A HC

It’s hard to hire a guy that drafted N’keal Harry

Wait... its 100% hes not getting a job? Like 100%???

It would totally be like Belichick to retire without even announcing it.

There aren't 20 coaches better than Belichick. Let alone 32.

just like phil jackson without mj kobe and shaq

[@naboz1988]

If bill had a good QB like Andy Reid it would of kept his career going

[@Soccercrazyigboman]

Bill's ego as GM killed him. It's not because of Brady, it's the fact that he could draft talent and hire proper coordinators. People forget Brady wasn't a world beater his last year. That Pats team lost to Tennessee in the playoffs. Brady saw the writing on the wall and went to a loaded Buccs team

[@NewEnglandPatriotsDynasty]

It's funny how no one called the Bucs "loaded" until they started winning with Brady in the playoffs. They were swept by the Saints, lost to the Bears, and got in as a wild card in 2020. Give me a break. Bill went 5-13 with Drew Bledsoe and he won just one playoff game in 11 seasons without Tom. Needless to say, Brady carried him, the Patriots, and the Bucs.

[@ezequielmartinez238]

​@@NewEnglandPatriotsDynastyerror, they were always called a "loaded team", and the media always blamed Winston for being a turnover machine and not having success under that offense and with that defense season after season, stop trying to give more credit to Brady than the credit he deserves

[@JamesDavis-ei6dv]

So how many super bowls have the Bucs won since Brady left? NFC championship appearances? I can't find any.

[@DraymondGreen-un2qj]

@@ezequielmartinez238 The 2020 Bucs only had two All Pros, and those players were Devin White and Lavonte David. The only All Pros in 2019 were Chris Godwin and Shaquil Barrett. Yeah, that team is just so stacked, isn't it? How many times did they lose to New Orleans until Brady got there again? How many super bowl appearances did Bruce Arians have without Brady? I notice something similar between Arians and Belichick.

[@remywhite4377]

​@@NewEnglandPatriotsDynasty Literally everyone around the league was saying they were a loaded team and were just a QB away from contending. Tf are you talking about 😂
