Tom Brady isn't walking through that door for Bill Belichick and things could get even uglier for the Patriots

New England Patriots fans appear fed up with Bill Belichick. Frankly, it's surprising.

For the better part of the past 20 years, legions of Patriots fans lived by the mantra "In Bill We Trust." With Belichick given carte blanche to run basically everything on the football side of the business, the team enjoyed an unprecedented run of success that included six Super Bowl wins.

But about four seasons of mediocrity and bad seem to be the limit, particularly since the 2023 Patriots are in shambles. And with one mumbling curmudgeon responsible for basically all of it, if the booing fans at home games and howls of protest on sports talk radio are true indications of the fan base's collective mood, many are ready to turn the page and welcome someone new.
