Belichick just won the coin toss and chose to receive the kickoff.

What a horrible coach.

What a horrible coach.

Unfortunately, what a wonderful QB!

Belichick is a horrible game-day coach. Used car salesman.

What a horrible coach.

Wonder what research he uses? Does he self assess? Sure as hell hope he doesn't kick a field goal first if he's down by 2 scores late. The fanboys on play station will short circuit.

Well, he’s unfortunately proven to be a CAR-MAX salesman over the years.

Didn't win the prize last year. Sounds like the Dark Years to me.

I would assume statistics show that by taking the ball first you can end up with 0.1 more possessions per game over your opponent, maybe less, than by deferring. Definitely get a fraction of an extra possession per game in NCAA hoops by winning tipoff because of alternating possessions. A little different with football because out of halftime is predetermined.

True story: My father bought a Chevy Lumina that Bill Belichick has previously either owned or used as a loaner around 1990.

Tom. Brady.

Pats giving a clinic right now. Romo just clearly and succinctly explained why the running game is still so important in the pass happy NFL.

 

[sluggo72]

First time in 8 playoff games Pats score on opening drive

 

[RU31trap]

This game looks like it's going to get ugly, real soon.

Yep. Game is over with 7:00 to go in the second quarter

Ugly? Ugly?

Come on, the weather is magnificent for January in Massachusetts!

 

[ILLINOISLION]

Thank goodness Brady’s wife is only gonna let him play for another 3-4 years!

 

[RU31trap]

Yep. Game is over with 7:00 to go in the second quarter

This is why William Stephen Belichick is without a doubt the undisputed best NFL coach of all time. The man must live in the film room, a relentless worker. Takes average athletes and develops them into All Stars. Both Brady and Belichick will be first ballot HOF.

As much as I dislike the Pats, gotta give them credit for turning it up come playoff time.

A shame the chargers had to come east three straight weeks.

 

[Obliviax]

Chargers are embarrassing and have totally quit.

Yeah. They get better each week as the season progresses year in and year out.

If Belichick had to sell cars, he'd starve.

Probably should have beaten the Broncos.

 

[BobPSU92]

ASS. BEATING.

 

[CDLionFL]

What a horrible coach.

Only newsworthy because 90% of the time since 2008 (might be higher but reports are sketchy), Belichick defers. He's a big believer in having the ball to start the second half and there have been a number of times where they've scored to end the half and then get it right back and score again on the first possession. But he's said that it's a week-to-week decision and they base it on a number of factors, including weather. They must have seen something this week with the below-freezing temps to make him take the ball this time. Ended up working out well.

 

[razpsu]

Home game. Ask the colts how that worked out for them yesterday.

Was it Jon Voights car?

Turns out, It was Bil Bellichick’s car, not Bill Bellichick.
