Bill Belichick

[Rabbit'93]

Do you like the guys coaching style?

Yes
No

[crzyjournalist03]

I love parts of it and hate parts of it.

But if he was coaching my favorite team, I'd probably love most of it.

did he do something yesterday to prompt this post/poll?

I don't know what '93 is thinking, but he did play his starters well past midway through the 4th quarter of a game that was 42-7 at halftime...

[pirate4state]

i watched some of this game

he took Tom Brady out of the game and the minute he did the back up QB threw an INT for TD return LOL

next series Tom Brady is back in and they score a TD

that was with like 10+ minutes left in the game and the score was 49-21 or something ridiculous

the next offensive series another qb was in the game

I love his attitiude and his coaching style seems to work....

so yea, i love it

even though he kept his starters in UNTIL the 4th.... they were in comlete cruise control the second half



and i loved pittin Tom Brady back in...

Classic

Puts Brady back in to shatter their hopes... and prove his point


I loved it...

I didn't say that he needed to cheat to win.

But he is a cheater. That is not disputable. The fact that he doesn't need to cheat to win in my opinion makes it even more disgraceful. If Scott Linehan or Cam Cameron were to get caught, that's at least understandable because their team really has no chance otherwise.

But we're talking about the coach of the best team in the league here.

whether you like him or not , he's winning...so he's doing something right...:thinking:

agreed, but let's not crown him as a legend just yet...

Take away Tom Brady and give him Tavaris Jackson, and we'll see how good of a coach he is. I don't doubt that he is an elite coach, but he also has the best talent to work with out of any coach in the NFL, and has had that for a few years now.

Or take away Bill Belichick and Tom Brady might be Chad Pennington

Part of the equation is drafting & developing talent. He is involved with that end too along with GM Scott Pioli. New England is a machine & all players buy into "winning above personal stats". Look at Randy Moss now.

BB is a proven winner & great coach. He is also a jerk with little personality & doesn't deal well with the media. He just wins now after bumps in the road at Cleveland, etc. The man can coach, period. And he may even cross the line to do it too (spygate). He will go into the HOF one day based on championships won at New England & let's remember he was Parcells' DC with the Giants too when they won 2 Super Bowls.

Tom Brady's second season as a starter, he went 9-7...Tony Romo is 6-1 thus far... :p

And Romo's lone loss so far this year was to whom...New England & Brady right by 3 tds? Romo is doing well & growing as a qb, but he is not anywhere close to Brady or Peyton Manning's league right now. Maybe one day, but not now. Hold off annointing him please until he has some rings & pelts on the wall.

Then I guess Dan Marino was never worth anything...;) :p (kidding)

I'm not trying to compare Romo now to Brady now or Manning now...I'm just saying that if you look at where these great QBs were in their second season as a starter, Romo is hanging with the best of them. He's either #1 or #2 all-time for passing yards by a QB in their first 17 games (can't remember if he passed Warner or not).

Romo definitely has a lot of growing to do, but if I'm starting a franchise from scratch, you'd have a hard time convincing me not to rank Romo as the #3 QB right behind Brady and Manning...you could make an argument for Palmer as #3 that I'd listen to, but I still think I'd take Romo.

[burnet44]

Im telling ya the guy can coach
and Tom yeah a number 1 pick huh?
no tom and bill have developed together
people now say Tom is a stud
yeah after years of hard work
if he was so good why wasnt he drafted number1
kinda like Montana (6th-5th round) huh


and if you dont think everyone in the league is doing all they can to win
yeah your snow (per other thread)
cheating?
Yeah with a camera but they guys on the other teams taking roids aint cheating just enhancing their possibilities for success?
SD lbr last year he wasnt cheating huh?
and got DPOY?
get real people hate winners UT-Celina-Pats-Spurs-USC-ND (well used too)

I lke the winners
I like to watch the best play
its an historical thing
I dont like parity where everyone is 8-8
I want to see what the best do and how they do it
I wanted SF to win 3 in a row because no one had ever done it
(closest one to doing so IMHO)
Watch the great teams see how the game is played
you dont learn much watching 2 7-8 teams slug it out to see who will be 8-8

So before you go calling ol Bill a cheater
think (if you can) all the guys in the league
who-roid up, get pirated film, send women to meet the visiting teams (and if you dont think that happens you are not smart), send drug guys to known drug users, hang out in the lobby looking for players limping, will pick up a players unattended cell phone, anything to get an edge

yeah people are really snow
pure as the driven

[gobbler grad]

He's no legend, just a great coach...and he has some great athletes that help out along the way...:thinking:

yeah, about as far apart as Forney and Graham you might say...;)

[lion75]

You can have a record of 100-0 and still have no class. He has none. zilch nada. I enjoyed watching him act like a classless jerk in post game interviews when Manning eliminated him last year. And forever he will be an admitted cheater.

Marino did get to a Super Bowl, & he does have lots of pelts on the wall as far as records passing or near the top in other categories. Miami could always score, sometimes defense was a problem after DC Bill Arnsparger left. I never said you HAD to have won a Super Bowl or championship (Barkley & Malone examples of greats who did not), but your body of work will tell the tale in the end. Did Malone finally win one with the Lakers after leaving Utah? I don't think he did but my memory is fading...

In other words, Romo still has a LONG ways to go before you can put him in that elite company. Hold off on the Cowboy love for now please. He still turns the ball over way too much.

No, Malone didn't get a ring with the Lakers

of course he isnt there yet...i still dont think anybody is saying that....but you have to admit the talent is there....and where was romo drafted by the way....i remember when they had him and the other qb from michigan that had played baseball(i totally just blanked on his name)...i remember watching them in preseason and wondering why the other guy was still the backup...im not saying that romo is great....but i do think he will be a very good qb

Drew Henson is the former baseball player traded to Dallas from Houston.

I like Romo, just not ready to annoint him yet. He is still growing up as a qb. He played at a D2 school in Illinois I believe. When he quits turning the ball over as much, then he will have taken the next step. But I think he will always have a lil' gunslinger in him. It's part of what makes him good (like a Favre). But again, I like Romo as a talent for sure.

Thanks, so my memory is better than I think I guess. He came close with the Lakers & Jazz, but no cigar. One of the all-time great power forwards for sure.
