Sadly, this is how Bill Belichick’s historic era with the New England Patriots could have ended, the team with which he won the Super Bowl six times with Tom Brady as quarterback, but, since his departure, the coach has never been able to get back on track. of the franchise and this Sunday they lost 17-3 to the New York Jets at the close of the regular season.
As in practically the entire campaign, the Patriots’ offense was a disaster. No matter who they put at quarterback that year, whether it was Mac Jones or Bailey Zappe, the constant was that they were totally unproductive. In an NFL where offense accounts for a large part of franchise success, Belichick continued to cling to giving more weight to his defense.
The Pats scored fewer than 20 points in 12 of the season’s 17 games. Still mourning the retired Tom Brady, who seemed to take all the magic of the franchise, now New England will enter the 2024 Draft surely looking for a quarterback who offers some hope and, in that process, Monje could no longer be there as head coach .
Although he still has a contract and any team interested in signing him will have to compensate New England with college selections, the possibility is growing that Bill Belichick will leave the Patriots with his legendary legacy.
With almost a quarter of a century as coach of the Kraft family franchise, Monje is beginning to sound like an option for the Washington Commanders, New York Jets and Los Angeles Chargers, all of whom are expected to fire their current coaches.
Even a good part of the fans who went to Gillette Stadium this Sunday, in the game against the Jets, did so with signs in gratitude to Belichick, sensing that the end is approaching and it is essential that the team leave behind its old glories to reinvent itself, with a new coach and a new quarterback.
