Now, you could say that the players who leave are upset they didn’t get paid or got cut, but even Gronk made comments about how no fun that place was under him.

starrymessenger Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 Recently saw an fairly long interview a lady reporter did with him covering his coaching career and life philosophy. Quite different from his post game presser persona. If you suit up for him I'm sure you have no chance but to do things his way, but if you do that my impression is he probably treats his players right. I don't know if he's the GOAT but for sure he's fit to be mentioned in the same breath as Halas, Lombardi, Shula, Landry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All players at some point in their career get cut. Being up front and honest with people is all I think you can ask in those situations which I've never heard a story of Bellicheck doing any backstabbing. As for Gronk... he's a nut and also could have left sooner if having fun was his top priority. You can't argue that Belichick doesn't get the best out of his players better than anyone else in the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There isn't enough disparaging words to describe the man, elite coach? yes, definitely, maybe greatest ever but his acts of unsportsmanlike behavior will always anchor him towards the bottom. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blacklabel Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 (edited) It's hard not to respect Belichick because he is undeniably one of the greatest coaches ever. However, whenever I think of him, I'm always gonna think of the scandals he found himself in and wonder the things he did that we *don't* know about. Dude has no problem pushing the boundaries when it comes to the rules, even stepping over the line at times and then claiming ignorance. He'll do whatever he can to find any advantage. So yeah, great coach, but I'm probably always gonna be skeptical on whether or not the advantages they found were due to his coaching or due to his willingness to skirt the rules a little. Either way, Edelman has a great story about Belichick. It's on YouTube, I think Edelman actually has his own channel and somehow I ended up there. But he tells a story of the first time he ever spoke to Belichick. He also says in all the years he's played for him, he's probably only had maybe eight or nine non-football conversations with him. Belichick really personifies the whole Oz/man behind the curtain thing in terms of his coaching style. Anyway, I think Edelman said it was his rookie year or at least early in his career. He was putting in extra work so he'd come back to the facility later at night to get in a workout. He says one night he goes in there and sees Belichick in the gym, way off in a dark corner, working out on an elliptical, illuminated only by the tablet he has in front of him where he's watching film. Edelman, still feeling like one of the new guys, doesn't wanna bother him so he just nods and goes about his workout. Belichick steps out a within a few minutes. Edelman finishes up his workout and wants to hit the hot tub to recover. He heads over to the tubs and who does he find in the hot tub all by himself... Belichick. Edelman just says, "Uh, hey coach." Belichick doesn't say a word, just stands up, steps out of the tub, butt-a$$ naked and walks out. Edelman's like, "Uh, alrighty," hops in the tub for a minute, which, by the way, he makes a point to mention how the guys always wear trunks in the tubs, not ol' Bill, though. Edelman finishes up, packs up his stuff and is headed out to leave around midnight. As he makes his way to the exit, bam, there's Belichick again, also leaving. Edelman just says something like, "Working hard, huh coach?" And Belichick just shrugs and says, "Eh, beats being a plumber," and walks out. I thought it was pretty funny. What we see of these guys isn't always indicative of who they actually are. Edited November 5, 2019 by blacklabel 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WideNine Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 (edited) Have to admit that the first thing that popped in my head when I read the OP subject line, was an image of Belichick playing the role of Hannibal Lecter and Darnold as Clarice. The way he creepily grinned on the sideline as Darnold was falling apart on the other side of the field. "Have the lambs stopped screaming Samuel"?
