The guy is paid to win games. Not to be friendly with the media, or be nice to camera men, or make all the fans happy. Let me ask you this. Would you rather have a coach who is an a-hole who wins? Or would you rather have a coach who is nice and is loved by the media but can't win? Personally, I would would rather have the a-hole who wins. The Pats are a better team/organization than us. But we were also outcoached yesterday. By a mile. So perhaps some of the fans should worry about why we can't score points, rather than cry about why the other coach is a bad guy, or why they ran it up on us. |

Re: Classless Coach Belichick
Too bad the Skins dont have an a-hole coach. I'd love for the Skins to be 8-0 and kicking azz.

I really hope we never have a coach who's a dickhead in the mold of Belichick. I really don't. Winning is great but you can still show some respect for your opponents and the game. |

Why can't we discuss why nobody bothered to cover Vrabel on the same play he has ran since 04? Or why we just sat back and let Brady have all day to pass? Or why we can't get a 1st down? Matt Cassell is NE's back-up QB. He never ever gets to play cause Brady has started every game since 01. So when he gets a chance to play what in the world is he suppose to do? Go in and hand it off? I can bet NE's coaching staff is thinking get this guy some game experience in case anything happens to Brady. They are always thinking ahead, unlike our coaching staff. |

This isn't baseball, you can bring your starter back in if anything "crazy" happens, you know, like if we had scored more than once on them.

If you don't have a problem with NE running it up, fine. Class and character are those things that people either have or they don't. You either understand it or you don't. |

Re: Classless Coach Belichick
Then why doesn't every team do that?

Re: Classless Coach Belichick
Because they are different from most teams. It doesn't come down to a character issue cause they are trying to score more points. That is what they are paid to do!!! They don't stop coaching until the game is over and I just don't have a problem with it. Indy does the same thing. They keep throwing when they are comfortably ahead. Those two teams never ever try and burn the clock out like we do. They are always trying to score more points.
It would be a character issue if NE was playing dirty like the old Raider teams did. I don't ever see NE's players getting flags thrown for personal fouls or unsportsmenlike conduct. |

Anyone arguing that off-field actions have nothing to do with the game have their head in the sand. Character is inextricably linked to every facet of an individuals life, on the field and off. It's no surprise that a dishonest cheater in his personal life ends up being a dishonest cheater in his professional life. What a sad commentary on our culture that winning a game is valued above all else, at the expense of integrity and character.
