At this time next week, it’s unclear if Bill Belichick will be able to call himself the head coach of the New England Patriots. The franchise icon’s job status has been the topic of conversation throughout the second half of the season after it was clear that the Patriots campaign had gone awry. He could very well be coaching in his final game with the organization when New England hosts the New York Jets on Sunday in Week 18.
As you may expect, however, Belichick doesn’t dive into the public scuttlebutt about his job status and simply keeps his comments on the task at hand, which has routinely been New England’s upcoming opponent.
“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 told WEEI’s “The Greg Hill Show” when broached about his mindset and his uncertain status going forward, via ESPN. “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.”
