Bill Belichick's latest moves offer clues about his NFL future | Pro Football Talk | NFL on NBC

[Music] I I don't Twitter I don't my face I don't do any of those things oh with all due respect I mean I hate to admit this but I mean I don't think I've been online in you know a couple days or weeks or whatever so I me that's really not an important thing to me you on Snap face there when we were talking about that is that on your face or whatever I don't really know or care anything about social media I don't even know what's out there or isn't out there so that's irrelevant to me hello everyone surprised to see me here well I am too I tried to join snapface but I couldn't find it so here I am hello instaface see you soon that was Bill bel's debut on social media it was a rough video to watch it was like four different pieces cut together in a not very professional way which I guess gave it even more charm this is the guy who has feigned lack of awareness of social media forever and I don't believe it there's no way if you're a football coach who prides yourself on knowing everything that you completely shut out a very valuable and useful vehicle for finding stuff out about your players about other players about other coaches about anything well I think that if I had to do an assessment there I don't think Bill belich is looking at any of that I don't somebody is but like a bearish nerian who is kind of the you know big job there in New England basically uh belich che's assistant right for everything he's the one kind of passing along the messages there when need to be if it's something right do they care about like oh you didn't get enough likes last night or anything like that no but when it comes to Football news or knowledge be G yeah he's he's figuring it out there but he is definitely not actually scrolling or doing that I I feel pretty confident in that and apart from that he is I was going to say dangerously close to being Overexposed going into the season he's beyond that it's too much he's doing too much WoW there he should have been more strategic more selective keep it to three or four media jobs he's doing too much he's popping up too often and people are going to get sick of it and I know he wants to appeal to Fan bases he needs to appeal to Fan bases you need to have fans and media saying we want bill after this season because after last season nobody was saying we want Bill we did that poll on Twitter which he's now aware of I assume 75% more than 75% the simple question if Bill belich was available this offseason do you want him to coach your favorite team more than 75% said no you've got to win the mob and that's what he's trying to do I think he's doing too much it's going to take significance away you want it to be appointment viewing you want to have to go to mcafe show on Monday to hear from belich you want to have to go to the Manning cast you can just throw a rock and hear something from belich now and I don't think that's going to be good for him yeah I I mean I hear you there you do you get in you know you get worried about the oversaturation and people getting annoyed with with you all the time and seeing you and all that but you know one I don't think he's going to go on there and be pretty plain and simple and it's going to be football oriented and I do think he'll give us some nuggets as the year goes along that will open some fan bases eyes and go oo that was a brilliant thought or Insight by by belich and all that and hopefully that's where he can get a little steam and momentum here to get hired by somebody but it is crazy that last year it's the greatest coach ever and he's not coaching right now it is it is but there's more to it than just oh the masses don't want them it is the age the control thing and so many other things that are going into this this is a great point we're going to deviate from what we were supposed to talk about but we'll get back to it in a minute somebody pointed out to me something from his latest appearance with Pat McAfee where he's going to be on every Monday but he was talking about control Personnel decisions and he made it clear it can never be one person there's always two people they have to work together they collaborate they agree the vast majority of the time it's only in very few circumstances where the person who has final say supersedes the one who doesn't and sometimes the owner chimes in he said that and people who have studied Bill bellich are like he's sending messages with this about the future he's trying to get people to understand he's not going to come in and be bulling a china shop and take over and tell the owner to shut the hell up areand who final I've said along okay yeah he's just going to coach but if you got a g a GM who's 42 who grew up in awe Bill bich the GM's going to do whatever Bill bich wants him to do it doesn't matter who's got final say Bill runs the show and I think that there's going to be little pieces of evidence like that of him trying to rehabilitate his reputation among the people who matter most yeah I I I I don't doubt that and I think he needs to do that it's good he's sending out those messages Clearly Now people believe it or not it's a different thing well I I will say just speaking from my experience being there in New England and then of course knowing people all those years his working relationship with Nick cerio is exactly what he was explaining there it really was he could trust Nick cerio as a football mind evaluator understanding how Bill built teams and what he wanted in players to where he didn't Bill bel's the smartest greatest worker in the history of football but he can't do everything right so you got to be able to at some point go like hey can can I trust you to look at some free agent offensive lineman because we got an injury here and you can Whittle down the list for us to down two or three guys to now they come in for a workout and now we have a discussion between you got to be able to lean on guys like that and he's shown that with whether a Scott Pioli or Nick cerio he's capable of doing that and listening and and and being a part of those conversations yeah he wants you know the last right of refusal certainly butst CIO it went off the rails to a certain well I think that's where I think not only the fans I was going to go there I'm glad you brought this fans people in football anybody with common sense that to me is the thing you question is that wait cerio left and went off the deepend a little bit the team certainly was not very talented we all know that and what the Patriots are right now and then I think you couple that with the really it's the greatest coach ever with one of the weirdest decisions ever and the offensive coordinator thing with Matt Patricia and Joe judge that year that made a number of people in the NFL go he's losing his fast ball what's he thinking that's crazy and that's certainly what is is part of the problem and and leads to people having questions about belich right now well one of the things belich has said recently meshes with something I've been saying ever since we finally got our brains around this new kickoff formation right it's going to result in not nearly as many returns as they thought because coaches are going to realize the Strategic Edge is kick it out of the end zone give the 30 yard line right hi it's Mike Florio thanks for watching PFT on
