NE moving on from Bill

[YankeeRebel]

Vrabel will most likely be the new HC and McDaniels the new OC.

Vrabel makes no sense at least not to me

 

[shopson67]

He said above average. Drew was a sack machine with a good arm who made horrible decisions.

What's Drew's starting record on teams not named New England?

He was .500 or better all but 1 season with the Bills and Cowboys, playing every game until his last season in the league. Finished 3rd for comeback player of the year in his first season for the Bills, throwing for 4300 yards.

Well Kraft summed up that Belichick is not in fact retiring from football but moving on to coach somewhere else

As Rex Ryan said, retirement is overrated, go get that win record!

I'd like a bit of Mayo please.

What happens with his sons? Do they get to stay? Or will he bring them where he goes?

 

[shopson67]

#3 pick in the draft along with a ton of cap space. And the defense is already stacked.

Getting that QB and a #1 WR in the first two days of the draft would be a great start. Maybe Maye and 'Tez Walker to continue that pairing from NC to NE (if they can get Maye at #3)? Or they could aim to pair Daniels with Brian Thomas Jr?

 

[sharkymcwrath]

He was .500 or better all but 1 season with the Bills and Cowboys,

Translation: he was absolutely mediocre on two teams that had really good defenses.

I would imagine they clean house, as the new coach will want his own guys.

 

[Moab]

I wonder if BB will coach this year and where he's heading. I'm pretty sure you can expect an improvement in their defense, a good QB would be helpful.

Above average though? I think so. Not claiming HOF of course, lol. Too many INTs.

I want to see him face off with Tepper.

 

[Hank Kingsley]

Vrabel would be better off going to Seattle. The Pats kinda lack talent right now.

They should try another big time college guy out of a job and get Saban. It worked with Carroll. Got them a Super Bowl.

Just asking because I never heard anything.

 

[shopson67]

Of course. I think most new coaches clean house though. I'm far from familiar with the Patriots though.

Yeah....

It's not a bad job at all.

 

[Moab]

I want to see him face off with Tepper.

Unless he gets really specific guarantees in his contract, I just don't see that happening. He didn't get to where he is now by being stupid.

Of course. I just want the fireworks lol.

The flipside to that is Urban Meyer. Few CFB coaches have had great success in the NFL. At 70-something not sure Saban wants to return to the sidelines.

 

[redseat]

I never thought he actually was retiring, just moving on from New England. Now if had broken the record then yes he would have been retiring

 

[redseat]

As long he isn't GM too, but I'm sure some desperate team will give him full control. Washington?

I think Belichick has figured out that if he wants to still coach he will have to give up a lot of control

I was less than serious obviously.

I wouldn't know Saban if I tripped over him as I don't pay any attention to college football.
