Seeing him with the trophy after we beat the "greatest show on turf" and started the dynasty My SECOND favorite memory will be when he finds a new team he likes and raises it again for the seventh time. He ain't done yet! I have been very critical of him this year, but I am still sad to see him leave us. I just couldn't imagine a scenario to see him fixing the offensive dysfunction soon enough to get another ring before he retires. Still, out of all the coaches out there he is the one who can out coach the helll of anyone on gameday. I can't wait to see him up on that stage again, I know he can still do it!
Idk what Chris Long is talking about here. You sir DID have a BIG impact on Pats history. Stop short changing yourself. You are looked upon quite fondly by pats nation!
Well said, I also remember him being a big contributor throughout his season with us, made some big plays. Wish we retained him but we know the Pats don’t pay anyone lol
Im 53 born and raised in MA and Pat's fan my whole life and you were part of just about the greatest Super Bowl win ever. It sucks for Pat's fans you're a 2 time champ by helping beat them but how many players can say they helped 2 teams win championships. Just for that one year you'll always be a Patriot!! And on top of all that, Walter Payton Man of the Year!! Nuff said!!
Thank you Chris! Top-shelf content my man. . 46 year old, life long, die-hard, Patriot's fan from NH here .. I think the Krafts made a big mistake. Gonna miss this guy at the helm of my beloved Patriots.
BB has had all decision-making for a long time now. Since TB left, BB's just not been good enough in NFL. Mac Jones was all his. He's a huge bust. It's a what have you done for me lately league. Love the laundry and uniform, not the guys wearing it. I'm also a lifelong Pats fan. Nobody has had it better than us as fans
@@CriticalThinker08 wonderful, and now we are just like everyone else. No special coach who is chasing Don Shula’s record. No steady hand on the wheel. No stability. Just another team who will fire their coach in 5 years and rebuild again. Anyone with a brain could see that the issue was the offensive side of the ball. Did Bill need a GM to find offensive talent, yes. Can Belichick still coach defense better than anyone in the league? F&$/in YES! We lost a game 6-0…. Our defense gave up six points and lost. We gave up more than 30 only twice. The team need retooling and some parts replaced not the Brains torn out.
@@jameshetu6885 BB went with McCorkle & ZSlappy when he could have easily gone and grabbed a Joe Flacco or Baker Mayfield for short money and at least made the 9-8 or 10-7, a ticket to the tournament. All they needed was a game manager that didn't throw more pick 6's than TD's. Instead he stuffed it up Kraft's ass by picking defense 1st three draft choices and barely addressed the wuss oline and 6th round for WR help. He has sucked for 4 years, as a fan, I've had enough myself of his arrogance and grumpkin mentality that makes young players not ike him or even want to play for him. The defense was playing for JeRod this season, not Bill or his offspring.
@@CriticalThinker08 I’m content to let history vindicate me. I think you’re a spoiled brat that hasn’t seen losing seasons before the 3 of the last 4 and you don’t know what you’re talking about. “Good times make soft men” as the saying goes. You’re a soft fair weather fan who wants to chase greener grass. History will vindicate my opinion and more importantly Belichick’s legacy.
The other football shows have fake entertainment, fake dram, fake arguing and fluff! This pod.. the awesome inside football talk is second level and I'm so grateful. I HOPE you have 500,000 subs by next year.. this needs to blow up. Curtis, retired Navy in the Philippines.
Chris you have made a major impact on my life I remember you talking to me at McIntire park at my little league games you were a gentle giant. Throwing up the L at uva games and in your first season with the rams and remembering talking to you on instant messenger helping me with football. I’m forever grateful that I know you as a person that I can continue to look up to you. And you giving back to communities is just a small portion you have done. Thanks brother
Dude you were one of my favorite players for us that 1 year for the Pats, and it sucked to see you leave but I think NE fans understood it was best for you.
Amazing job Chris…been wanting to listen to your podcast for over a year now and it was a pleasure hearing your insight and reflections here on the goat pro coach.
Us Pats fans remember you Chris and certainly your impact in those games. That hold sell was one of the most impactful plays in Patriots playoff history.
Great show! Bill always took chances on older players like Corey Dillon or Rodney Harrison or Randy Moss!!! Best of luck to Bill wherever he lands!!! I believe he will coach in the NFL again!!!
Rosanne Barr LOL. I'm loving today's interviews & BB impressions as people tell their stories. I'm going to miss him in NE. He's onto a great second act.
Chris you have a great channel and you were certainly a difference maker in NE. Bill the GM was the undoing of Bill the coach. The last 24 first and second round draft picks never received a second contract. No coach could have won with the team Bill built. I think Tom knew in 2019 NE lacked talent and could see the salary issues they also had. Tom’s window to win was short. Bill can certainly still coach it’s his roll as the GM ended his run. It’s very hard to consistently win without a big time NFL QB the Joe Gibbs era is long gone. I love how your channel is about sports and lacks all the drama and nonsense like some other channels. Fill in the blank. Take care
What an awesome tribute, analysis, and inside info about some NFL greats by Chris and Co. 1st time listener to this channel but I will check it out again for sure. The Longs are always true competitors starting with Howie. I was a fan of the Pats since 1980 and Oakland Raiders were my second team because I loved Jim Plunkett and the Raider mystique that I learned of as a 9-year-old when I read Jack Tatum's "They Call Me Assassin"
I’ve been saying this for awhile now, and I know it’s a dark horse then and it still is now. I see Bill going to Navy. Follow in his dad’s footsteps, and it’s a military academy that prides itself in discipline. I’m 99.9% wrong I’m sure, but….
It’s gonna be so weird but I do want him to go elsewhere and break Shula’s record (15 wins away) and prove it wasn’t all Brady or NE because let’s be honest it was both.. they’re both the best at they’re individual positions
Yeah chris you talk and respect bill and the patriots you got a ring but lot of us remember you saying next year on another team you complain about how hard it was playing with the patriots you had no fun bluh bluh and you was happy not being there any more but now your older and you now see what a gift you got from playing in new england dont know why bill let you go and i understand but you did get a second ring when bill let you go i like you was happy you played here i love your father but happy you told your story to better understand from your point of view i respect you live long n be happy
Really cool guy to beat the Patriots and still I like him. Also helps that he was instrumental in helping the patriots to the largest comeback in Super Bowl history lol.
Mike Lombardi went on PMS yesterday lobbying for teams to fire their coaches and hire Belichick. He wouldn't do that if Bill's job prospects weren't slim to none.
Imagine playing in the league and still not understanding what “Spygate” was about. It was about the LOCATION from which teams were allowed to film games from. NOT filming all together. It had nothing to do with any conspiracy theory of filming practices or walk throughs.
Chirs, in SB 51, you came screaming off the edge forcing a hold that put Atlanta out of feild goal range. Never say you were a footnote in Pats history. You did your job.
I could also say Bill Parcells never won without Belichick. Ever think of it that way? All such arguments are ridiculous. It's NEVER about one person, one situation, either/or. NEVER.
Chris is tripping, even if it was only one year he is one of the first players that comes to mind of that 2016 team. Was bummed to see him go to Philly, but absolutely hilarious how he hated the patriot way and got a chance to win with them and then beat them in the Super Bowl
Gibbs was coaching but and I will be honest I don’t remember much about those teams but what I do remember is they always had a great running game. Today without a top QB you may win one but never three. The game has changed a lot.
Funny you bring up Al Groh, because his son better follow bill out of foxboro. Matt is the worst at identifying offensive talent for prospects and free agents and even defensively is suspect
Maybe we'll hear otherwise when Jerod Mayo is formally announced tomorrow, but I've been reading that they may not get a new GM until after this year's draft! [Coming from Adam Schefter, Phil Perry & Jeff Howe] That would mean keeping Matt Groh (there since 2011 & director of player personnel the last 2-years) & Eliot Wolf (since 2020 director of scouting) working in similar capacities.
What is your favorite Bill Belichick memory?
When the Eagles beat him in 2017.
Him at the white house with trump! You at home crying to cnn
Superbowl 52!
Seeing him with the trophy after we beat the "greatest show on turf" and started the dynasty
My SECOND favorite memory will be when he finds a new team he likes and raises it again for the seventh time. He ain't done yet!
I have been very critical of him this year, but I am still sad to see him leave us.

We’re on to Cincinnati
Idk what Chris Long is talking about here. You sir DID have a BIG impact on Pats history. Stop short changing yourself. You are looked upon quite fondly by pats nation!
Agreed
Well said, I also remember him being a big contributor throughout his season with us, made some big plays. Wish we retained him but we know the Pats don’t pay anyone lol
Definitely he's probably one of the very few players that can go to another team beat the pats in the superbowl and still be liked by their fans
Yupper
seriously. dude. we love you chris

Chris you played great for us. You played a role in that championship. Pats Nation love you!
You were one of my favorite players on one of my favorite Patriot teams Chris. Wish they kept you on/catered to your strengths more
Chris you have made a major impact on my life I remember you talking to me at McIntire park at my little league games you were a gentle giant. Throwing up the L at uva games and in your first season with the rams and remembering talking to you on instant messenger helping me with football. I’m forever grateful that I know you as a person that I can continue to look up to you. And you giving back to communities is just a small portion you have done. Thanks brother
Chris, It's gratifying as hell to hear a good man. pay sincere homage to someone else I respect a great deal. You're a good man! Thanks
Your podcast are so relaxing. Not having Bill on the Pats sidelines is going to be so awkward.
Great Job breaking down Bill, his coaching and his importance to their run
Dude you were one of my favorite players for us that 1 year for the Pats, and it sucked to see you leave but I think NE fans understood it was best for you.
Thank you for all you did for the pats you made an impact on tht team.
Amazing job Chris…been wanting to listen to your podcast for over a year now and it was a pleasure hearing your insight and reflections here on the goat pro coach.
Thank you coach! We love you and always will.
Listening to Chris I learn a lot about football and how to carry your self on and off the field.
Us Pats fans remember you Chris and certainly your impact in those games. That hold sell was one of the most impactful plays in Patriots playoff history.
Great show! Bill always took chances on older players like Corey Dillon or Rodney Harrison or Randy Moss!!! Best of luck to Bill wherever he lands!!! I believe he will coach in the NFL again!!!
This is literally the best take and on his retirement, coaching an dlegacy by anyone in sports media inclduing former players.
Patriots fan from Angola 🇦🇴. I think the press disrespects Bill too much
Rosanne Barr LOL. I'm loving today's interviews & BB impressions as people tell their stories. I'm going to miss him in NE. He's onto a great second act.
You’re appreciate Bill Pats fans appreciate you . 💯

Great interview; appreciate you sharing the stories,Chris.
Parcells had Bill as DC. Parcells admitted on 30 for 30 that if Bill wasn't the DC then I wouldn't have these 2 rings.
You're always a patriot Chris, regardless of beating us the following.year.
What an awesome tribute, analysis, and inside info about some NFL greats by Chris and Co. 1st time listener to this channel but I will check it out again for sure.

BB should definitely go to ATL, CAR or WASH and he will dominate NFC for 5 years after he installs his systems
This was awesome to hear 👏 😊
Just gained alot of respect for chris,
I’ve been saying this for awhile now, and I know it’s a dark horse then and it still is now. I see Bill going to Navy. Follow in his dad’s footsteps, and it’s a military academy that prides itself in discipline. I’m 99.9% wrong I’m sure, but….
Don’t sell yourself short. You were loved as a Patriot! Straight dawg
I’ll always remember Chris as a patriot
Mr Road Rash! Seriously funny. I'll never.forget his presser in a neck brace!😂😊
We don't make it or win that Superbowl without you! Thank you, even though you kill us in the next SB 😂
It’s gonna be so weird but I do want him to go elsewhere and break Shula’s record (15 wins away) and prove it wasn’t all Brady or NE because let’s be honest it was both.. they’re both the best at they’re individual positions
Great insights...
Imagine that…a player expressing gratitude to a great coach.
In 40 years I've never loved a player as much as I love you Madd Maxx
Coach B is truly the GOAT.
I'd love to hear Belichick talk about J.R. Redmond in 2001 season.
Yeah chris you talk and respect bill and the patriots you got a ring but lot of us remember you saying next year on another team you complain about how hard it was playing with the patriots you had no fun bluh bluh and you was happy not being there any more but now your older and you now see what a gift you got from playing in new england dont know why bill let you go and i understand but you did get a second ring when bill let you go i like you was happy you played here i love your father but happy you told your story to better understand from your point of view i respect you live long n be happy
When are we selling those green light hats CLong? I need one asap.
Rosanne Barr? Buddy, Dolly Parton was right there...hell, I would have accepted Elvira 😂
Really cool guy to beat the Patriots and still I like him. Also helps that he was instrumental in helping the patriots to the largest comeback in Super Bowl history lol.
Mike Lombardi went on PMS yesterday lobbying for teams to fire their coaches and hire Belichick. He wouldn't do that if Bill's job prospects weren't slim to none.
Delusional
Imagine playing in the league and still not understanding what “Spygate” was about. It was about the LOCATION from which teams were allowed to film games from. NOT filming all together. It had nothing to do with any conspiracy theory of filming practices or walk throughs.
Idk who’s decision it was. Did he want to leave or pats were done with him. I loved seeing him on the pats
Bill not calling a timeout during the Seatle superbowl put alot of pressure on Pete Carol.
Him saying stuntman nice
WELL FUCKING SAID
A nice side that you related about Bill! However didn't you bad mouth Bill when you went to the Eagles? Something about not having fun.🤔
No. You’re confusing me with someone else.
Chirs, in SB 51, you came screaming off the edge forcing a hold that put Atlanta out of feild goal range. Never say you were a footnote in Pats history. You did your job.
Blank fired HC at 12:01 a.m. in case Bill came available at 12:02.
I could also say Bill Parcells never won without Belichick. Ever think of it that way? All such arguments are ridiculous. It's NEVER about one person, one situation, either/or. NEVER.
As of now (subject to change) the Falcons play the Patriots in New England in 2025:)
Stuntmen are super important
Bill is moving on to Cincinnati
Pretty sure Parcells had LT. Enough said.
Bellichick was his Defensive coordinator and the main reason Parcell won two
@@davidemri they were saying Parcells didn't have a brady. People say LT is one of the greats.
Chris is tripping, even if it was only one year he is one of the first players that comes to mind of that 2016 team. Was bummed to see him go to Philly, but absolutely hilarious how he hated the patriot way and got a chance to win with them and then beat them in the Super Bowl
Anyone bringing Joe Gibbs up that dude wins in racing as well so what’s the point? he’s won everywhere His specialty was the hogs
Giants!
“He’s gotta be 6’3”
Brady might not have been drafted if not for Bill
How about retirement for grand OLD Bill B??
DALLAS
Gibbs won 3 with all different QB's
Gibbs was coaching but and I will be honest I don’t remember much about those teams but what I do remember is they always had a great running game. Today without a top QB you may win one but never three. The game has changed a lot.
Atl makes no sense for Bill. That team isn’t ready to win right now with no QB and not a solid D. Dal makes perfect sense
Come visit Gillette and pats nation will show you how they feel
Roseanne Barr?
Funny you bring up Al Groh, because his son better follow bill out of foxboro. Matt is the worst at identifying offensive talent for prospects and free agents and even defensively is suspect

Actually called bill the goat? No one he didn’t reply. He’s no t a frat boy
