Then we can have a conversation about how that man can’t manage, build or sustain a team.
I recommend “The Blueprint” by Christopher Price on how the early Belichick-era teams were built, for those who don’t know or don’t remember the details. Belichick doesn’t need any apologists, his record speaks for itself and his accomplishments have been the subject of many interesting books. Sustaining a winning, organization that’s always seen as contenders - even in a down period, is no small feat. This is easily evidenced by just how few multiple Super Bowl winning teams there are - even by top coaches in the NFL. The Patriots are rudderless at the moment and fans are looking for something - anything - to pull them out of the post-dynasty funk. It’s not putting one’s head in the sand to both acknowledge that the Patriots have had problems with roster building and team execution the past few years, and to still prefer Bill Belichick remain to lead New England out of the murky times.
