Bill Belichick Seems To Be Under Fire In New England

The New York Giants' opponent this week, the New England Patriots, have not won a Super Bowl since 2005. The more you read about the Pats the more you realize that Bill Belichick, the guy who used to be considered smarter than everybody else, is under some fire in Massachusetts.

Mike linked to a story this morning in which former Patriot Rodney Harrison ripped the scheme being used by the New England secondary.

SB Nation Boston is wondering if Belichick, who now wears multiple hats within the New England organization, is stretched too thin.

Star-divide

Here is part of what SB Nation Boston wrote about Belichick:

One look at the defensive roster should give you an idea as to why this unit has struggled so badly. Players like Gary Guyton, Rob Ninkovich, Tracy White, Antwaun Molden, and Brandon Deadrick simply don't belong on the field in an NFL game as regular contributors. In addition, the roster is loaded with aging, faded veterans like Shaun Ellis, Andre Carter, Albert Haynesworth, and Gerard Warren that also can't be counted on week to week. Finally, the younger group of players has been beset by injuries or outright lousy play from the likes of Devin McCourty and Jermaine Cunningham.

As people have begun to come around to the realization of the staggering lack of talent and depth with this group, it's important to acknowledge that there is no mystery General Manager or Defensive Coordinator calling the shots on this. The man in charge of personnel and of organizing this group is everyone's untouchable icon, Bill Belichick.

Given his outstanding track record as a coach and his keen eye for talent, the move to grant the coach more power certainly made sense, but knowing what we do now, it seems to be too much responsibility for just one man to handle.

Here is another take on Belichick's personnel decisions from Comcast Sportsnet:

The notion that the Patriots should hire a GM to take the personnel duties off of Bill Belichick's full plate may seem intriguing at first thought. But then give it a second one.

Will that GM have say over Belichick? Will that GM come from outside the organization?

Think Belichick is going to sign off on answering to someone at this juncture no matter how many high-draft picks have gone belly-up and free-agent signings have gone bust? Me, neither.

But if someone else in some other town had fanned on almost the entire 2006 draft, the entire 2007 draft, top-50 picks in '08 and '09, Adalius Thomas, Shawn Springs, Derrick Burgess, Tully Banta-Cain, Leigh Bodden, Chad Ochonono, Shaun Ellis and Albert Haynesworth? Right, that guy would be sitting next to Eric Mangini and Herm Edwards in Bristol.

This stuff doesn't mean anything when it comes to Sunday's game. I just find it interesting that Belichick, a guy who's decisions used to be above reproach, is now being questioned.

GOOD!

Please cut more players with NFL experience because they were “moping in practice”. That’s terrible for long-term success and makes the job of NY easier.

Players still want to go to NE

but they are getting older.
I don’t think Brady has the fire he used to and Belicheck looks old.

The mystique is gone.
Think about this, if Brady were to go down, they would be just like Indy.

that was 3 years ago

and it resulted in Matt Cassel.

The Patriots are absolutely nothing like Indy, at least on offense. It makes you wonder how good Brady (and Welker…) actually are given how good their replacements did when they were injured. As in not miss a beat good.

You are actually

proving my point.

they have slid in those years when you compare them to, well, themselves.
Cassell has done nothing great in KC. I think he was a product of the system and NE knew it when the raped KC for the picks.

the points made are simple and accurate.
He is not a good drafter. He is handling three jobs that almost all other teams have three people for—high paid and intelligent people.

Pioli gave him tools and he made wonderful products. But he is not a DC anymore and as above, his war room history is pitiful.

Do I think he is still heads and shoulder above most coaches, yeah, but the other aspects he is pedestrian

Cassel took the team to the playoffs

considering what KC’s been over the past decade, that’s great and the team looks like its the best in the division again.

The point is NE is nothing like Indy. The team isn’t drastically different from the SB one, at least on offense. Randy Moss wasn’t Randy Moss when Cassel was there that year, he was the same pain in the ass he was in Oakland.

you're right that the teams are not analogous

but (A) Cassel did NOT take the team tot he playoffs and (B) they went 11-5 against the AFC west, NFC west, and 4 wins against the Bills and Dolphins.

Look at the schedule results: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2008_New_England_Patriots_season

They literally did not win a game against a tough opponent, they lost all their games vs. strong opponents.

He took them to a playoff game and beat the Parcells led Pats. Browns have won a playoff game since then.

His SB 25 game plan is in the HoF. Pretty sure SB 36 is also in.

Parcells has not won a SB or gone to one without him.

That's a fact..I love Parcels but Bill B. is a better coach..Sorry Bill P.

Bill B. wanted no part of the Jets…He wanted out from underneath Parcells armpit..and look what he has done..

Yeah. But I do think Parcells is a better team builder. He doesn’t know how to finish it though. Ie Pats (90s) Fins, and Dallas.
I do think that’s one of the reasons why BB quit as the HC of the NYJ. When he became the HC, the ownership turmoil was similar to that of the Browns of the 90’s. He wanted to avoid that fiasco again. But b/c of that, BP and BB didn’t talk to each other till 2004. Now apparently they are BFF’s.

I always laugh when they show Parcells of BB clips on the NFL network. The one where Parcells says " Bill, don’t give me shit, your ass will be in the parking lot".

And good solid points..and they are best of friends..That bond never breaks..They were quite a combo..and they always talk..The media tried to make a big deal out of nothing as usual..

Also, BB’s friend, former Pats vice GM Scott Pioli, is married to Parcells daughter.

Yeah Parcells in his later years built potential winners

But he didn’t have the drive anymore..Down here in Florida He’s taking a beating..It’s a shame he just didn’t retire for good..In Dallas and Miami he produced great recipes, but didn’t have all the ingredients..and he’s a great guy..He’s the only head coach I ever talked to..1985 training camp..He just got done balling out the defensive players for screwing around…When he walked off the field I meekly said “Hey coach”..He came over and talked to me for 20 minutes..Seriously..Great guy…He may have just needed a break from the players screwing up but it was nice talking to him..

Brady is an all time great QB but part of his success is being a product of that system. Peyton is an all time great QB the difference is that is he is that system. Apparently Peyton even plays defense lol look how bad the defense has been without Peyton.

If Bill is under fire then you might as well fire every other coach

Does he make some questioable moves?? sure but who has done better than him in the past decade? , even when his start QB went down, he led them to 11 wins…… maybe the people in Indy should take note.

His style is his style, he makes it work………still gonna get that ass beat by Eli and the G men though, but Bill is fine by me.

like everyone on that offense he fits very well

the Pats dink and dunk a lot so it makes sense to have tall athletic tackles that take a long time for the defense to move around as well as be tall enough to smack down defenders arms when Brady’s dinking over the middle.

he is a terrible run blocker which makes sense given his size, which is mainly why I didn’t want him here.

But

protecting Brady >>>>>>> pass D. At worst, the Defense has now became the Indy Colts.

The team needed a LT. Light is 34 and sucking.

Solder, who many thought was a LT only, has played really well as a RT. 2nd behind Brian Waters, in terms of sacks and pressures and hits given up.

Also, the lack of any pressure from the Dline is contributing to the that horrible pass defense.

They would/might have taken Prince but they figured they would/might get a similar CB in Dowling. Both are physical press cover CB’s.

There were rumors that the Giants and the Colts wanted Solder. I’m happy that they took him w. the 17th pick.

I've been saying for years that he's drafted terribly in NE despite all those picks

It is amazing how his offensive system can not miss a beat when you move from Brady and Welker to Cassel and Edelman tho, especially for a guy who is supposedly such a defensive genius.

Maybe he is worn out too thin. Charlie Weis and Romeo Crennel have proven plenty of times elsewhere that they’re great coordinators and when those two were there the team was at its best. Even Josh McDaniels was a great OC and it showed.

It seems the same systems are in place, but there’s just something missing.

has contributed to people’s lack of patience. Hasn’t won a SB since ‘05? Off with his head.
He can’t handle the job. We’re only 5 and 2. He’s too old to juggle the demands.
Brady is the only reason he’s considered a good coach….and so on.
All coaches have this happen to them. Belichick knows this.

I don’t know how or why fans act as if they EXPECT to make the playoffs every year. It’s a hard thing to do and sustain. Let alone make regular SB appearances.

Wishing and hoping, versus expecting, should be clearly distinct in people’s minds, but they aren’t. Oh well!

I mean, with the number of years the Pats have played at a highly superior level, playoffs annually, do people really think that would stay true forever?

Doesnt Matter Who Coach Is

If personnel cant execute, your record will reflect it. Bellichik stuck with mediocre defense. Pitt took full advantage by controlling the clock while 1st downing them down the field. We can do the same thing Sunday and just a hunch our running game will look better. We just have to make sure we dont turn it over and commit dumb penalties.

Pioli was a part of the success

The premise is correct. It’s just too much for one man, even if he is the guy I think is in the discussion for “best coach ever.”

The Peter Principle holds true. They need a good GM and personnel director, so that BB can just do waht he does best, coach.

And you’d think by now the guy would have found someone he trusted to learn his system and be a real, not figurehead, DC. There’s a reason for the organizational chart.

BB is the big reason why a bunch of middling NFL players are atop the power rankings, but the org. would be ebtter served by spreading some of that responsibility, especially in GM / drafting.

Hey guys, the thing about Pats fans, and arguably only Steeler fans can fully agree on, is the amount of

expectation that each fan base has each and every year. We lost to the 5-2 Bills (who will stumble eventually, as long as it’s not against them damn Jets ), and the top team in the conference who is 6-2. If 5-2 is means to jump out of skin and act like fools, then my goodness. I can only imagine if we were the Saints right now at 4-3. Talk about a roller coaster team. The teams we lost to have a combined 4 loss record and a combined 11 wins. Not bad at all. The only thing i as a Pats fan hate about this team, is the secondary. The anticipation at the start of the season was to have one of the premier trio of CB’s with McCourty, Bodden and Dowling. So much for the last two, though Dowling showed great promise against Marshall and Floyd. He is an injury prone player though :-(. I expect us to have one of th etop two records in the AFC and compete. But that defense may eventually be the down fall.

speaking only for myself, I stay away from predictions

especially this year in the NFC East. All the teams have flaws and, with maybe the exception of the Redskins, each is good enough to get hot for an extended period and take off.

I could go through a review of each team, but that’s maybe the subject for a separate fanpost.

Suffice it to say that when I talk to guys in my office who are fans of the other teams (and at work we have them all), while the Giants are currently in the driver’s seat, there’s too much football to play to have any confidence about who will come out on top.

We do all agree that the talking heads at ESPN and NFL Network are once again drunk on the Eagle hype and doing their typical job of giving too little respect to the Giants. The football media in this division pretty much splits between those who like Dallas and who find reasons to predict Dallas as the best, and those who like Philly who find reasons to predict Philly as the best. But the football media is no less fanboy driven than the blogs, they just cover it up better.

So, I would predict, tentatively, that the Giants at least beat out one of those darlings pretty handily, and would have said the same when everyone record was 0-0.

Giants gameplan this week

Let Eli throw the ball all over this secondary. Let’s see what ole boy Ramses can do. Kevin get creative let’s throw some four WR sets out there and create mismatches for the defense. Certainly it should be the gameplan, because we haven’t run the ball for crap this season. Don’t try and start now with a team that struggles mightily with the pass. More 1st down screen passes to the RB or TE.

And quite honestly he is playing a different role this season due to the change in 4-3. He doesn’t have the previous S over the top to assist. We did have that against Wallace for obvious reasons. He is having a serious sophomore slump. I along with every other Pats fan, expected him to once again be a pro bowler and all pro, but that looks like a pipe dream now. Not ready to slam the book at him just yet. But it is concerning.

by Livestrong77nyy on Nov 2, 2011 8:00 PM EDT up reply actions  

I can understand why. We went into the latest draft excited to have 3 of the first 33 picks.

We spent our first pick(17) on a offensive tackle, which isn’t an exciting position. Our next pick(28 overall) was traded down for a 2nd rounder and the Saints’ 1st rouder in next year’s draft. The 3rd pick(33) was spent on CB Ras-i-Dowling who’s looked great in limited action, but looks just as injury-prone as he was advertised.
We traded down with the Raiders on the next 2nd round pick and used the other 2nd rounded on a RB(Shane Vereen) that’s yet to get his chance to dazzle anyone. In the 3rd round we got RB Stevan Ridley who’s only gotten limited action and then of course QB Ryan Mallett.
Lots of fans were hoping for some crazy shit.

Some fire, yes.

I’m not hearing calls for his head. If anything, the worst I’m hearing is “hire a DC!” Fact is, it shouldn’t be surprising that our secondary is lacking. They are all fairly young players, and the assistant coach Mike Patricia was not only never a DB, he only recently became a DB coach. The feeling is it’s not the talent we need, it’s the coaching of technique.

We’ll see what happens. Unrelated to the secondary, but I see the Giants center did not participate at practice along with Nicks/Manningham. For the first time in like forever of this year, Albert Haynesworth was not limited in practice or listed with a back injury; meaning we might finally see hm play more than a fifth-to-a-third of snaps.

part of his reputation has been built because he keeps trading down and accumulating draft picks. The cream of the draft crop is in the 1st two rounds. Trading down leaves you with questionable talent.

Good one too, but if we are talking LB, I like Spikes as well.

That is my fear, troy..I don't see Corey being able to handle that guy one-on-one..

Brady will pick us apart..It all boils down to who can use up the clock..That will determine the outcome..and don’t think they don’t know it..NE wants to keep Eli off the field and we want to keep Brady off the field..I think that’s the bottomline..IMO

No he's starting but, who's going to cover the TEs?

I don’t know..our LBs are learning..Ross is quick but I’m not sure they can afford him to double up with Webster..

I think Mathis would be bumping/jamming Gronk. As for Aaron..I don’t know. Maybe Rolle?

I’ve always liked Mathis. Wished the Giants didn’t sign him to a long term contract. He would be the perfect BB type 34OLB. Basically a better pass rushing version of Mike Vrabel.

Banned from GangGreenNation for being a troll for this ONE post after somebody classified the Giants as a LUCKY organization.

He's a bitter Jets fan what do you expect?

That happens when the team you root for hasn’t won in damn near half a century!!

Very solid

Replaced HOFamer Harry Carson and did a very good job. Was thier best LB in 1990 SB season. Great runstuffer but excellent in pass coerage and blitzing as well. All round solid player. Played with emotion too kinda nuts out there.

And at 6' 3' 250ish he was a big ass LB in his day.

I'm not liking all the criticism going BB's way before this game

As well as the loss last week….

You know he will be super focused and won’t leave anything to chance. Their team is going to be playing flat out.

Well folks..I apologize for all my typos tonight..

I’m waiting for Ted Hendricks to call me..I played Golf with him in N.C. at a Larry Little benefit tournament in 1991..Now he calls half in the bag every couple of days..So I schedule it such that I get half in the bag in order to be able to communicate…This guy is a nut..30 minutes on the dime..the phone will ring..Hey bro!!..
