Why isn't Bill Belichick in the NFL? Has Bill lost his 'fastball' or are there other reasons? Curtis: "Does does anybody believe that Bill Belichick is inferior to Jeff Hafley?"
00:00Does anybody believe that Bill Belichick is inferior as a coach to Jeff Halfley?
00:08No, no, no.
00:09Everybody believes Bill Belichick is a better football coach than Jeff Halfley.
00:13All day and at night, too.
00:16And he's a better coach than Raheem Morris, and he's a better coach than Robert Sala, who he dominated.
00:22So why isn't he in the NFL?
00:24I don't know. I don't get it.
00:27Politics?
00:27No, it's what Wiggy said yesterday. People think that he lost his fastball.
00:31I mean, we talk about it on this show so much.
00:33It's the distraction that is the outside noise that comes along with Bill Belichick now, which the Patriots never had to deal with.
00:40But Robert Sala never had a fastball.
00:42Jeff Halfley can't even pitch.
00:44I don't think he's appealing to owners.
00:47He doesn't want to be the friendly face of an organization, whereas a lot of these new coaches do.
00:54They want to be up in front of the cameras, smiling, talking to the press, talking to the media, talking to people, coaching these young guys.
01:00Belichick wants nothing to do with that.
01:01But Bill Belichick was someone who didn't do that and never had to here because he had success.
01:06If you win, nobody cares what you say to the media.
01:08No, no, but I didn't see what you're saying, Curtis, but that's when they believed he had his fastball.
01:11I think that with Sala and Jeff Halfley, they're looking at, oh, look what Halfley did with the Green Bay defense this season.
01:20Look what Sala was able to do with San Francisco's defense.
01:23But Bill would be able to do that same thing with any defense.
01:27But we haven't seen it, though.
01:28Curtis is right about that.
01:28But we haven't seen it.
01:29A, I don't think the owners think that he's 100% focused on being the coach that he used to be.
01:38He's got the whole lifestyle.
01:40He's at cheerleading events.
01:41He's doing all this.
01:42No, I'm serious.
01:43He's doing all these other things.
01:44And they're looking at him now.
01:46He's at UNC.
01:47His defense struggled.
01:49So they look and go, wait a second.
01:51If this is the greatest coach of all time, he's not maybe as focused as he used to be because he's got all these other things going.
02:01Even when Bill Parcells was at the end and he lost his fastball, he was still a good coach in the NFL.
02:06Right, but he didn't have all the other stuff to go in.
02:08But all the other stuff goes away if you win.
02:11But you're not winning.
02:12If you're Buffalo today, tell me one reason why you're not hiring Bill Belichick to be the coach of that team as you enter the new facility.
02:18I just told you.
02:19I gave you multiple reasons.
02:20Because he's not going to be smiling and taking pictures?
02:21No, no, no.
02:22Because they don't believe he still has his fastball and he can still coach at that level.
02:26But they don't believe that Robert Sala is a better coach than Bill Belichick.
02:29They don't believe that whoever they hire is a better actor.
02:31But the Bills aren't looking at Robert Sala.
02:33Like, I don't know who the Bills are looking at right now.
02:35But Chris is saying if the Titans are hiring Robert Sala, which it seems like they are, why would you not even interview Bill Belichick for the job?
02:44I would assume that working with Bill Belichick is a headache.
02:47I would assume that.
02:49And maybe I'm wrong there.
02:50It's a fine headache if you're winning.
02:52Maybe the Tennessee Titans look at it as we don't have a team put in place yet for Bill Belichick to win with.
