Bill Belichick has 300 career wins, good for 3rd of all time behind only George Halas (318) and Don Shula (328).

He has six Super Bowl rings - clearly more than any other coach in the SB era, but also tied with Halas and Lambeau for 2nd-most total Championships, behind only Paul Brown (7).

He has 9 Conference Championships, most ever by a wide margin.

He is 0.705 in the playoffs, 2nd-most of any active HC (Zac Taylor leads at 0.714).

He is tied with Shula for most total playoff appearances at 19 (Andy Reid will join them this year as the Pats will not be in this years playoffs and the Chiefs will)

He has coached 44 playoff games, six more than the 2nd-best (Andy Reid).

He has 31 playoff wins, 9 more than the 2nd-best (still Andy Reid).

It’s perfectly fine to be frustrated with the path that the Patriots are on. But talk of firing Bill Belichick? That’s like firing John Wooden or Nick Saban or Fielding Yost after 2 or 3 bad seasons. Not only is it disrespectful to them and everything they have done, but it’s disrespectful to the entire history of the sport.

Get real.

Belichick will probably coach until he hits 329 wins for most ever.

    Belichick would have to coach another five years of 6-10 to hit another 28 wins. Nobody should be getting that long of a leash being that bad.

    Especially when Belichick only has himself to blame for the situation he is in. Even if he is still a good coach he is a terrible GM at this point. If he cannot give up the GM role the Patriots have no path to success. And with no path to success they have no reason to keep him around.
