Throughout this season, New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick has been pretty reluctant to discuss his future with the team amidst a brutal season. But during a recent interview, he opened up more than he ever has about the situation.
During an appearance on WEEI’s Greg Hill Show on Tuesday, Bill Belichick opened up about why he doesn’t like to talk about the future during press conferences and is reluctant to answer questions about his future with the team.
“Whatever success I have had, I’ve tried to go about my job the same way every week — win, lose, good years, bad years, whatever they are,” Belichick said according to Mike Reiss of ESPN.com. “Each week, get ready to go for that week, do the best you can to help your team win, and after that game move on to the next one. And at the end of the season, that’s the end of the season.
“But on a week-to-week basis, I don’t want to spend time, or get caught up in what happened five years ago, or what’s going to happen two years from now, and a bunch of other random stuff. Just working on the Jets. . . . I’m committed to the team that I’m coaching right now, the players that are here. They deserve my best every day and that’s what I’m going to give them.”
So while it’s unclear whether not he will return to the Patriots next season, it is clear that he has no intention of talking about it.
