Bill Belichick Shares Telling Admission On Tom Brady Relationship

Bill Belichick has shared a telling admission on his relationship with Tom Brady. The Patriots are getting ready to take on the New Orleans Saints. The defense looked pretty good last week against the Jets picking off the QB 4 times. Now they are looking at the offense to get back to a better form. They are lead by rookie QB Mac Jones who has been okay so far. But they will need more from him as the season progresses.

A lot of the week was taken up by talk from Alex Guerrero and what he had to say about Bill Belichick.

“The interesting thing I think there — and this is just me, an outsider looking in — it was like Bill never really… I think his emotions or feelings never evolved with age,” Guerrero told the Herald. “I think in time, with Tom, as Tom got into his late 30s or early 40s, I think Bill was still trying to treat him like that 20-year-old kid that he drafted. And all the players, I think, realized Tom was different.

“He’s older, so he should be treated differently. And all the players, none of them would have cared that he was treated differently. I think that was such a Bill thing. He never evolved. So you can’t treat someone who’s in his 40s like they’re 20. It doesn’t work.”

“Everyone has protective feelings and emotions as friends and family members, and that’s just part of being in sports. And you have a lot of people who because they’re not out there, they want to protect, and it’s a very caring and loving thing that a lot of people do. From my standpoint, I had a great time (in New England), but really my focus has been on trying to be the best that I can be for this team. Trying to go out and be a winning quarterback, be a championship-level quarterback for this organization because they certainly deserve it.”

But Belichick had some things to say about it.

“Over the last two decades, everything we did, every single decision we made in terms of major planning, was made with the idea of how to make things best for Tom Brady,” Belichick said.
