COMMENTARY
As complicated as everyone expects the divorce to be, let’s keep in mind this is also a guy who once famously scribbled his resignation on a cocktail napkin. Bill Belichick could send Patriots owner Bob Kraft a singing telegram on his way out the door of One Patriot Place and it still might not be any weirder than the way he broke free from the Jets.
Anyone with the slightest temperature for football (even Tiki Barber) can understand that the time has come for a change of the coaching regime in New England, where Belichick has ruled for a generation of unprecedented greatness (2001-2018) as well as periods of incompetent miscues (everything since).
