Man, if Kraft really is idiotic enough to get rid of Bill (not to mention mid season), Pats really do deserve to be the new Lions for the next 60 years.
There is absolutely no way in hell Belichick gets fired mid season. That would be a disgrace.
If Belichick gets fired, there will be a mad dash to hire him on another team. Coach's that didn't even have a bad year will get fired just for the chance at Belichick.
Yeah. The odds are better of winning powerball than BB being fired in season. I wouldn’t take odds of him being fired if he went 1-16 for the season.
No way in hell they replace Belichick
(X) Doubt
Regardless of the teams recent performance, this would be an absolutely disgraceful move. Bill helped win us 6 god damn super bowls.
X doubt
Call me when this story isn’t relying on a source from Ben Volin.
I’m not saying it’s impossible. If Bill walks out in Frankfurt with his Frank furt then yeah, can him. He’s not going midseason barring completely un-Belichek behavior
Josh mcdaniels needs a job
With Josh McDaniels
“Journalists” have the perfect grift.
-
Make vague statement that is technically true. Belichick COULD be replaced after any game, but also this one.
-
Journalists get to ask questions about said report.
-
Write pieces on response to question about report.
Go home NESN.Com. You’re drunk.
technically they COULD replace him before the Germany game too, but they aren't doing either this season.
Maybe you try Hansi Flick as a new Head Coach while in Germany
Yeah they could replace Belichik. Belichick could also quit to hunt down Nazi zombies. Doesn’t mean it’s likely…
“Based on my conversations, I don’t think it’s 100% that Belichick finishes out this season,” Volin wrote in a column published Friday. “These next two games before the bye are huge, particularly the Germany game, which is practically the team’s Super Bowl for the Krafts. If Belichick loses at home to the Commanders and then to the Colts, and comes home from Germany with a 2-8 record, I think there’s a chance the Krafts could make the move in the bye week and install Jerod Mayo as the interim coach for the final seven games.”
Quite a few credible Patriots people seem to believe this is at least POSSIBLE, but isn’t the source on this Ben Volin?
Has Volin ever broken a legit Patriots story before? I can’t remember one.
O hai test balloon.
Wait until after the season and offer him some kind of position within the organization. If he does not take that, do the mutual decided to part ways thing.
Bottom line is the man coached you to 6 SBs. No need to do this mid season
Didn't he just get paid a fuck ton of money? Like a fuckton even compared to other high profile coaches? You've got him for X more years man. May as well use him. Hire a head coach and a GM and let Bill be the DC. I'm sure he wouldn't like that, but he can dab his eyes with millions of dollars when he goes home. Also fire Steve Belichick because he looks like drugs.
Belichick getting fired mid season would be something most people would never ever see coming
Didn’t he get an extension like two weeks ago?
Do it you fucking cowards.
I'm old. I remember the pre Belichick/Brady Pat's. Go back to that. McAfee says It's good for the brand.
They'd at least fly him back, right?
If there’s one thing to be certain of with all this Patriots drama, it’s that their eventual Secret Base Collapse video is gonna be hot fire.
The Boston media is pathetic.
There is 0 way it happens, but it would be so poetic that a Colts win gets the Pats to fire their HC, just over a year after the Patriots win got the Coltds to fire their HC
I’ll take click bait never gonna happen articles for 500 please
Just beat writers trying to stir the pot. There is a 0% chance the Patriots fire Bill midseason after what he's done for the franchise. 0%, and I'll wager anything on that too.
i’m hoping this does happen, purely because this dude deserves the disrespect. he quit us by writing his resignation on a fucking napkin.
it’s not going to happen, but it would be great if it does.
I hope he gets fired, so he is available to star as the new villain in the next Cobra Kai season.
If the Patriots fire Bill mid season Kraft should have his team taken from him. The disrespect for a guy that won you 6 rings. Have some fuckin respect and tell Bill to resign after the season. Embarrassing shit.
Added: for the dumbass that deleted his comment they did not trade Brady in the middle of the season. They let him go to a loaded team in the off season instead of signing him to our shit team so Tom could carry a garbage roster for another year. Trying to compare them is dumb as hell.
Belichick just signed a multiyear deal in the offseason and nobody expected the Patriots to be that good this year either. I don't think he gets fired this year.
The only reason I give this any attention is Reiss is mentioning it, but I still don't buy it. Even if Kraft wants to move on from Bill, mid-season is going too far.
oh well, it was a good run.
wait, just fire him, and then the bears can hire him or something. I'll take it.
The rivalry is pretty much dead as it was really more about Peyton vs Tom than us vs them, but if we were to retire Belichick i would absolutely be stoked about that lol
The only right way to fire BB is a golden handshake during the off season. If they fire him mid season I’m no longer a fan.
We'll take him 🙋♂️
There would be something poetic about the Colts retiring Belichick.
I mean, woudn’t you want to beat the rush of teams looking to bring on Bill O’Brien or Joe Judge in the off-season? Better lock one of them up as interim ASAP.
So you’re telling me “NE-Coach” from the Madden franchise is about to become canon?
This makes a lot of sense...
They can hire Matt Patricia before the stampede of teams try to get him at the end of the season. /s
Lol.
If he gets fired mid-season, that would be so disrespectful. It has to be after the season.
He immediately becomes the most sought after head coach on the carousel this off-season surely
No way there are this many people saying “Bill Belichick deserves more respect!!!”
Fuck that. Bill would make whatever the best decision was for the football team regardless of how cold-blooded it was.
Everyone in here saying he shouldn’t be fired mid-season for “respect” don’t understand a single thing about Belichick.
What if they leave him in Germany and make him find his own way home?
