Report: If There’s Any Bad Blood Between Bill Belichick, Josh McDaniels

Bill Belichick will have to go against Josh McDaniels in the upcoming season. The former Patriots offensive coordinator interviewed with the Las Vegas Raiders for their head coaching vacancy. McDaniels was really sure about this interview and it went really well. Yes, he will be able to coach his own team.

McDaniels didn’t have much luck in his first attempt as a head coach. The Raiders wanted him for a reason and NFL analysts have a really good feeling about this one. McDaniels has excellent reputation in the NFL. His great work with rookie quarterback Mac Jones was definitely a thing. McDaniels attracted the attention of the NFL world. The result is here. How will he do in his first season as a head coach in Las Vegas? We won’t dig into that one.

Bill Belichick and Josh McDaniels respect each other

Belichick tried to keep McDaniels on his coaching stuff for quite some time. The former Patriots OC was a target for quite some time. The Patriots did their best him to keep McDaniels in New England. Many thought that McDaniels would be Belichick’s successor in the future. We won’t close the door for that one. However, we do know that McDaniels will have to coach against a Belichick-led team.

According to Mike Reiss, there’s no bad blood between Belichick and his former offensive coordinator.

“McDaniels has three of his former assistants on staff with him in Las Vegas: Mick Lombardi (offensive coordinator), Carmen Bricillo (offensive line), and Bo Hardegree (quarterbacks), and I’m told there’s no “bad blood” between him and Belichick on that front,” Reiss wrote.

McDaniels has nothing but respect for the greatest NFL coach of all time. The same goes to Belichick. He and McDaniels did wonders over the years and their team won a lot of games. McDaniels is off to different heights now and the only thing we can do is wish him luck. It will be really interesting to watch him go against the Patriots. That will be the game you don’t want to miss for anything in this world.
