As the Cleveland Browns coach, this guy could never get a break.  As the Patriots coach, if this old bastard fell off a skyscraper, someone would put a stack of matresses beneath it.


What the fuck??

In Cleveland he had a clueless owner that meddled.  Kraft turned over the team completely to BB after the first SB win.  Prior to that the only thing Kraft and BB had disagreements on was Brady.  (BB wanted to draft him in the 4th round, Kraft didn't want to waste a draft pick on him.)

Is there any evidence for the claim that BB wanted to draft Brady earlier than he did?

Hate the little prick, but love the facts he rants and raves over every play...that fire has been emblazed in that franchise because of him!

Schaub and others need alesson from Brady on firing up your team and following it up with pinpoint passes!

Yes, I heard an interview with Kraft in which Kraft mentioned BB wanted him in 4th round, 5th round and with an earlier 6th round pick and each time Kraft overruled him and then with the 2nd 6th round pick he appeased BB even thought he thought it was a waste of a pick (keep in mind NE already had 3 qbs and carried 4 that year)

No he is not.  If he is just that good, then the Browns would have a Super Bowl ring.

If the owner didn't announce the team moving in the middle of the year he might!!!! Modell sabotaged that season for them. And they were really good that year and on a roll up until that point when the move was announced!!

It's also like saying if Don Shula is so damn good how come he never won the Super Bowl in Baltimore? It's silly logic!

BB didn't even get to choose which QB on the roster would start when he was in Cleveland. 

Model's made Al Davis look like a hands-off type guy.

BB is the best HC in the game...not even close...maybe one of the Harbaugh's, but he not only runs the show, he is like a GM/Coach with his great finds in so many drafts.

I do not like the Patriots, but I think that Belichick is one of the truly great NFL head coaches of my lifetime. If I were making an off-the-cuff list, it would look something like...

1) Bill Walsh
2) Tom Landry
3) Don Shula
4) Bill Belichick
5) Chuck Noll

Can't disagree AT ALL with that list.
