Is Bill Belichick Headed South For the Winter?
Well according to the latest reports, Bill Belichick will have a second interview with the Atlanta Falcons. So then, is Bill Belichick headed south for the winter? Apparently the first interview was a one-on-one between Belichick and Falccons owner Arthur Blank. If he is to have a second interview then things must have gone well with Blank. Especially since Belichick most likely requested the meeting and the owner agreed to it.
Per Pro Football Talk (NBC), one league source explained that, Belichick is believed to be done with “big-market media,” making him more inclined to go to a place like Atlanta than Dallas or Philadelphia. I suppose that he didn’t care for the media coverage in New England. Perhaps he feels the smaller media markets will be less invasive?
But is Belichick a good fit for Atlanta? Considering the quarterback situation is shaky can he improve the situation? After Brady left the Patriots the quarterback situation deteriorated. Mac Jones, the former first round pick and Rookie of the year candidate was benched at the end of the 2023 season. And backup Zappe Bailey isn’t the answer.
I’m not saying that Belichick can’t improve the Falcons. But since he is known as a defensive genius it would be interesting to see what he would do to improve the offense. At any rate, he’s probably forgotten more football knowledge than most of us ever knew. And he clearly isn’t ready to stop coaching. I wish the best for him wherever he ends up.
Is Bill Belichick Headed South For the Winter?
In other head coaching carousel news, Mike Vrabel interviewed with the Los Angeles Chargers. The team confirmed that the interview took place today. Vrabel had plenty of success before he was fired as the head coach of the Tennessee Titans. Apparently, the spilt was more personal than professional. So the Chargers would have a good coach if they decide to hire Vrabel, in my opinion.
Also , according to Adam Schefter (ESPN), “The Falcons and Seahawks also are interested in talking and meeting with Vrabel, per sources.” So the market for Vrabel is heating up. We’ll keep you posted as things develop.
