Yes he won 3 superbowls, yes he's a great mind, but he's also your biggest weakness too. Much like his problems in Cleveland, Bill Belichick has requested too much power and he can't handle it. He fails to make adjustments, he fails to change his gameplan, and since spygate has past he has won zero rings. (coincidence, maybe, but that's a different topic)
Bill Belichick and the Patriots only outscored opponents last year in the second have by an average of 3 points. And this year, the Patriots have looked like a bottom 3 team in the second half of games. More humble coaches like Rex Ryan and Marvin Lewis have been able to figure the Patriots out in the second half and as seen by yesterday the Patriots look lost.
The Patriots couldn't have dominated a first quarter more yesterday, and then they turned into a completely different team. Maybe if Robert Kraft didn't give power hungry Bill everything he wants and signed a Charlie Weiss or Romeo Crennel, I guarentee we would have seen two different results for the opening weeks. Bill is a hell of a coach and I'm not saying to fire him, but he needs help, and until he does you can reminis about the past superbowls and a what if Asante intercepted a pass, because you're not winning one any time soon.
I know, I will be killed for this but even the most biased Patriots fan, has to admit the lack of second half adjustments is a little unsettling.
