Part of the brilliance of Bill Belichick for so long was his ability to balance and blend the short-term and long-term blueprints for success. Yet he’s to blame for a 2024 Patriots team short on talent due to his short-sighted approach.

New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft opened up about the firing of coach Bill Belichick during a recent appearance on “The Breakfast Club” podcast.

Belichick is currently taking a year off from coaching. He interviewed for a handful of vacant head coaching jobs this past cycle, but didn't get a gig. Instead, he's gone into media, where he has numerous ventures, including being a guest on ESPN's "Manningcast."
