That's my take too; it's just kind of funny and interesting listening to the guy speak. It's like he's not trying even 1% to be entertaining or play ball in any way. And he doesn't care what he sounds like! I kind of respect him in an odd way for it. At one point in the interview he was asked about young players doing well in the playoffs or if that's a problem, etc. Bill said "in the playoffs the most important thing is playing well; it's not about being young or old or this or that" or words to that effect... He's right. It's amazing how well a football game goes when you play well and execute. He sounds utterly defeated and deflated, like you have to wonder what drives him at this point in his career, especially with all that he has accomplished. He's a really odd--yet interesting--duck. 2 Quote

I thought he sounded defeated before our second matchup. And he sounds pretty resigned here too. 1 Quote

Maybe he's thinking "I have studied this team to death twice this year and played them twice, and I just don't like our chances against them on Saturday night." Let's hope so! 1 Quote

If things don't go well he may seriously think of retiring after that. IMO. Quote

Especially when he gets a topic he wants to talk about. Example poyer and Hyde. Whenever asked about them he gushes. He also is a savant when it comes to knowing every damn player and detail. 1 2 Quote

But guys like Belichick are not normal; they are completely one dimensional people, have OCD to an extent, and they are enormously ambitious and competitive. They need to be 100% focused on lots of hard work to be happy. The kind of guy who won't know what to do with himself when he retires, so he doesn't. Not sure how it will play out. 1 Quote

Wyobills89 Posted January 10, 2022 Posted January 10, 2022 My boss is like this. Signed his business over to his son in law and should be retiring. But he just can't quit it. He's actually there working and managing things more than the son in law. Certain people are just consumed by their profession and find anything else just doesn't cut it for them. 2 Quote

gjv001 Posted January 10, 2022 Posted January 10, 2022 How does anyone stand to listen to a Belichick interview. Not only is he rude and disrespectful to the people asking the questions, he doesn't give any meaning responses. Just Horrible. Quote

I totally agree but like I said I think he is all in next year to go for the Division. It's going to be all about Mac Jones' play. Nobody can convince me that he is not regretting moving on from Brady. He might of thought he did the right thing last year but after TBs play this year.............it's got to be eating him alive.

Ghost_002! Posted January 10, 2022 Posted January 10, 2022 I rather not listen to him and I am a pats fan. Plus he honestly is the same way whether he wins or loses in press conferences so there is no difference. The only time he has been different is during a SB win or when he is being interviewed for NFL films. Other than that. it's basically the same tone in regular season wins or loses. Quote
hondo in seattle Posted January 10, 2022 Posted January 10, 2022 "The most important thing in the playoffs is to play well." He's an intelligent guy but it's remarkable how much he talks like a kindergartner. Its likes he goes out of his way to avoid substantive, interesting answers and just says the very most obvious, basic thing possible. Quote
