Bill Belichick, certainly the greatest coach in NFL history, could be on the hot seat if he doesn’t turn things around in New England.
So says former NFL linebacker LaVar Arrington, a three-time pro bowler who appeared on Fox Sports 1’s “First Things First” on April 2, and said Ballistic now faces scrutiny after the Patriots’ 7-9 record in 2020 are doing. This not only dropped him to third in the AFC East standings, but also the organization’s first loss record in 20 seasons.
There is not enough reason for Belichick alone to feel any mode of pressure to succeed – apart from himself, that is. But, Arrington said, former Patriots quarterback Tom Brady won a Super Bowl in his first season out of the organization with Tampa Bay, raising questions about whether he or Bellich was the real reason for New England’s success.
“This seat is hot for Bill Belichick and it may sound crazy to some people, but for Bill Belichick this year should be a good season. And you know why? Because whispers are – ‘It was Tom. It Was always Tom. ” There could be nothing else but Tom. ‘And Bill Belichick needs to show before going too far away from Tom Brady that it was not Tom Brady, that it really was and, in fact, what Bill Belichick had made in New England. “

Arrington’s full section to discuss Belich’s alleged hot seat is below.
To be fair, the ballistic-versus-Brady argument has been going on for some time, even when they were winning six of their Super Bowls together. And there was a clear drop in the situation with former NFL MVP Cam Newton, who finished last season with 2,657 and 65.8 percent of his passes for eight touchdowns.
It is clear that Brady is doing better than Belichick post-breakup, but chances are it will be a long time before Belichick faces any kind of heat about the safety of his job.
