Patriots' Bill Belichick, 67, leaving door open to coach into 70s

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- After previously saying that he didn't plan to coach into his 70s, Bill Belichick is leaving the door open to do so.

"When I said it, maybe I didn't know what 70 felt like," the New England Patriots coach said Monday during his weekly appearance on sports radio WEEI. "So I'm not really sure if that's an accurate statement today or not. At the time, I didn't feel that way. Now that I'm closer to that age, I don't know."

Belichick, 67, recorded his 300th career win as a head coach on Sunday (regular season and postseason combined).
