Patriots’ Loss to 49ers Marks a Rock-Bottom Moment For Bill Belichick Era in One Specific Way

Tom Brady left the New England Patriots in free agency and signed a good deal with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. His departure left a big void in New England, and the Patriots doesn’t seem to be having a good time on the field. Some even go to the extent to predict the end of an era. The Bill Belichick era.

Belichick is the best head coach NFL fans have ever seen. He has built a strong team and he always has a backup plan for his players. The Patriots had great game in the past two decades and won six Super Bowls. But, Brady’s departure changed everything. He has won five games with the Bucs this season. Belichick lost three straight games. New England lost the game against the San Francisco 49ers in a terrible fashion. It was horrible, and veteran quarterback Cam Newton was benched in the fourth quarter.

Sadly, Belichick reached a new low in his time with the Patriots.

Newton struggled in the game against San Francisco, and Belichick decided to use second-year quarterback Jarrett Stidham in the fourth quarter. Newton struggled in the game against the Denver Broncos too.

NFL fans are worried about the end of the Bill Belichick era

New England has a 2-4 record in this point of the season, and the team is in third place in the AFC East division right behind the Buffalo Bills and Miami Dolphins.

No one would ever think that the Niners would hand the Patriots their biggest loss by scoring margin in Foxboro since Belichick took the coaching position twenty years ago.

This may motivate Patriots players to do better in the next few games. The team lost two straight games and NFL analysts are confused. Maybe Belichick shouldn’t have let Brady go in free agency. TB12 is winning games with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Bucs have a 5-2 record right now. That’s much better than Belichick’s 2-4.

Let’s see how will Belichick solve this. Newton has to work on his connection with Patriots receivers. He has zero connection with veteran wideout Julian Edelman. Belichick should take this into consideration.
