Thrivefourfive Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 Bill Belicheck made a statement to his team when he decided to throw the defense on the field in overtime against the Jets. He told them that they've got more work to do than the offense in the grand scheme of things. He didn't make the right call to win that game. He made the right call to win a championship. By choosing the defense, Belicheck told his team that it's more important that they get experience in a pressure cooker. He trusts Brady in that situation more than he trusts his defense. Brady and the offense don't need the practice as much as the defense. Belicheck put them out on the field in the near perfect simulation to a big spot in the playoffs and/or ultimately the Super Bowl. And it truly was genius. Belicheck knows more about coaching in the NFL than probably any man alive. He might know more about it than any man ever has. He's laughing you. The New York media makes headlines insisting that he screwed up. The joke is on them. Do you really think he's worried about beating the Jets in week 16 with a 12-2 record? Do you think he doesn't know that the Bengals and Broncos were going to do him a favor the next night? If the Broncos win, which is probably what he figured - they have more on the line, and the AJ McCarron era was going to be meet by a very good defense that was playing for keeps - then the Patriots would control their own destiny for homefield advantage. Even if the Bengals won, they may have to play at Cincinnati in the AFC Championchip game. Who would you pick in that one?? Yeah, Bill too. The Hoodie is not going to reveal that he had bigger plans in his decision than just the Jets game. That would be mentioning things that could take place weeks from now. We know he doesn't do that. He said what he needed to after the game. And the media and fans ate out of his hand once again. Do you really think there is anybody on the planet that better understands winning Super Bowls?? Let alone people in the Media? So he lost the game. He honestly couldn't care less. He saw the big picture and prepared his team for what's ahead. He knew the opportunity that lay before him and he capitized in it, in a way that once again reassures that he's peerless. He knows all. He sees all. And everyone in that organization is a lucky SOB, cause my money will once again be on Belicheck and Brady against the field in the upcoming tournament. Odds are they will be the most prepared because of things like what he did for them in the Jets game. The real in game practice session was on the Jets time, and nobody even knows it. Priceless.

Buffalo Barbarian Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 I doubt it, they still need to lock up homefield advantage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragonborn10 Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 (edited) Oh please stop. Belichick and all of his coaches are nothing without Brady. Seattle's defensive secondary was a MASH unit. And it still took a dumb call for the Patriots to win. The only thing Belichick did was recognize the greatness of Brady after waiting five rounds to pick him and have the guts to keep Bledsoe on the bench.

PromoTheRobot Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 (edited) Creative excuse for screwing up. Brady is your QB. In what dimension is NOT giving him the ball a better idea? Edited December 30, 2015 by PromoTheRobot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PO16FFS Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 Oh please stop. Belichick and all of his coaches are nothing without Brady. Seattle's defensive secondary was a MASH unit. And it still took a dumb call for the Patriots to win. The only thing Belichick did was recognize the greatness of Brady after waiting five rounds to pick him and have the guts to keep Bledsoe on the bench. Ive been saying this for years. Good job man! Post of 2015 Ill say it right here. PHOCK BELLICHEAT. ARROGANT POS! Once Brady retires lets enjoy the shitfest in New England. I dont even know why reporters even try to ask him a question. Him and Popovich. Two arrogant POS that dont realize that without reporters and without fans paying 80- 1000$ for tickets they would be poor. Wait a minute....but what about the 11-5 with Cassel? I say what about the 49-49 in his first 98 games prior to Brady? Kind of funny that prior to Brady, Billicheat has an almost identical record to Wrex the toe licker.

TPS Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 Based on your logic, he !@#$ed up big time. Who needs more "clutch" experience for the playoffs, your D or the Jets O?

I agree, like most good coaches, they benefit from have a great quarterback. He does have a good system and is total control, something Bills lack now.

BillsFan130 Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 Possibly true but that is a pretty bold statement. I think he was trying to win the game and had little faith in the pats offence against a great jets defence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quinnearlysghost88 Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 they wanted to receive. he's just backing the call to make it look like he didn't make a mistake. you can add whatever perceived narrative you'd like after that. if Rex made this call, no one would be telling this tale.
