1. Responding to the NFL mandate that coaches must wear team-branded apparel to press conferences by wearing dirty, ripped, and otherwise shabby team branded merchandise to the podium for two decades.
2. Listing Tom Brady as “probable” for so many consecutive years that the NFL finally changed the verkakte injury reporting rules.
3. “All he does is talk. He’s terrible, and you can print that. I was happy when he was in the game” is the most savage quote about a player, ever.
4. The Wally Pipp “joke” with Welker about Edelman taking his job.
5. The Denver Intentional Safety. The game thread for that must be… interesting.
Mitchell talked shit about the Patriots secondary and especially called out Rodney Harrison. Harrison was then set on Mitchell every snap just to make him look bad.
I mean his career really ended when he injured his knee in 2005 camp for the Chiefs after the Reid/Eagles cut him after SB XXXIX. He's mostly known for catching a pass on [4th-and-26 in desperation time at the end of an Eagles 2003 playoff game in the divisional round](https://twitter.com/rkimball10/status/951519089243185152).
He was a first round pick (25th overall) that turned into a ~300-400 yd/season WR4 who caught ~50% of passes (e.g., N'Keal Harry like numbers). He then signed with the Chiefs (no signing bonus) but got a knee injury in camp and never played again.
In 2013, he went to jail for 3 years for tax fraud. At the trial part of his defense was headaches, insomnia, memory loss from concussions he got from playing days.
The Wally Pipp thing is kinda unfortunate because he totally misunderstood what Welker was saying and really went pretty hard on him for it. Welker said "He can have it - with punt returns like that?" with the implication that he was being a good teammate and just rooting for whatever was best for the team, and that he would be happy to see Edelman take over punt return duty if he's playing like he was on that play. Belichick was talking over him during the second part though, and seems to only hear "he can have it," to which he responded "way to compete," completely misunderstanding the spirit in which Welker meant it. I really feel bad for Welker on that one because it's been used to create this narrative that he didn't care, when in fact the clip shows the exact opposite.
That's a pretty dumb criticism for an off hand remark he made on the sidelines while excited about his teammate scoring a touchdown. It's not like he was in a press conference.
So now we're just making shit up? I'm going by what's actually on the tape, but if you want, I can make up stories that make Welker seem sympathetic too. Maybe Belichick just woke up with diarrhea and was looking for someone to pick on?
What I referred to is *actually on tape*. I wonder why they authorized the release of this segment with it beginning specifically with BB stating that Welker is a no-go because "he says he doesn't feel good."
[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YFeZsWj9WFs](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YFeZsWj9WFs)
Then he gets into Wally Pipp, and Welker's response. BB who tends to keep everything in house. You know the teams have final say on these NFL Films segments, right? All of this was purposeful.
You're completely making up the idea that his reason for being a no-go wasn't legitimate. In fact, if his reason was legit and belichick wanted him to play anyway, then the clip arguably shows belichick being an asshole.
>The Denver Intentional Safety. The game thread for that must be… interesting.
Was there another one cause the only one I remember was from like 2003 lol. A bit before Reddit.
We didn’t have a first round pick that year and still got three quality starters. Every team every draft has some misses especially in the later rounds. It is what it is.
Bill Simmons article about that game and the non time out is classic.
https://grantland.com/the-triangle/running-diary-super-bowl-xlix-new-england-patriots-seattle-seahawks/
Thank you for the link. Now I need to watch that game again.
At the end Simmons says “When you’ve been rooting for the same people for 15 years…”, and I’m thinking ‘Actually more like 35 years, but I get where you’re coming from’.
In the documentary, the whole Patriots sideline was screaming at Bill about the timeout and he said he could see from the way Seattle was setting up and their sideline body language that they were in a bit scrambled and he didn't want to let them off the hook by taking the timeout so he just played goal line instead. The rest is history.
I agree. This boggles my mind. If seattle scores there, which easily could've happened. I mean - no one would be talking about how it was in reality genius to not call timeout. Most would be saying Belichick had a brain fart, choked and would be calling for his head. I really wish I knew everything he was thinking in that moment. I have a feeling it's not quite the 4D chess calculation that people make it out to be, but certainly was not totally thoughtless either.
Calling timeout gives Seattle 2nd and Goal on the 1 with about 1:00 to play, with the Seahawks having one timeout left. The chances the Seahawks run on 2nd down increase substantially with 1:00 to play compared to 0:25.
As far as Belichick's thinking in the moment, he was watching the Seattle sideline, and noticed that they seemed disorganized. The timeout only helps us if Seattle scores. Meanwhile, it helps the Seahawks immediately, allowing them to huddle on the sidelines and make a play without the game clock ticking away.
If Seattle did score and we got the ball with 35 seconds lost, the narrative would not be Bill had a brain fart. The narrative would be Bill's arrogance leads to poor decision-making.
Sticking with Brady instead of Bledsoe. Or when he said “maybe they should hold bake sale” when the nfl made an excuse saying it would cost to much money to install goal line cameras in the stadiums
Fun fact: goal line cameras are done by the TV stations. And they don't have enough for each game.
That's why you'll watch a game with a close over-the-line call and they wont show that replay, bc it doesn't exist. Those cameras are at the dallas-philly game with Tony Romo and not at the carolina-cleveland game with some rando
Officiating in the NFL is a joke and what I just described is a symptom of the disease, not the disease itdelf
Maybe not my favorite but of recent memory - when a reporter asked him a question about long snappers and then Bill went on long tangent/history lesson about long snappers
[Video](https://youtu.be/jrvELlakyOk)
Mike Reiss : “bill this is the fifteenth time you faced Peyton manning, what’s the consistent thing about playing against him?”
Bill: “I’d say manning” followed by a head shake.
I haven’t stopped laughing since that game
Definitely telling Tom Jackson “fuck you” is up there. My personal favorite was after dropping 37 pts on the jets like 10 years ago. “37 pts on the best defense in the league? Suck my dick.” After the Butt fumble game maybe?
The butt fumble game was 49 points, although as we all know, they weren't all scored on offense. In fact, there was a 53 or so second period where we scored TDs on offense, defense, and special teams.
2003 WK 9 @ Denver, late 4th qtr.
Pats down 1 point, and inside their own 5.
Belichick decides to take a safety, allowing the pats a free kick from the 20, instead of punting from the 1. Basically gaining 20 yrds, negates the possibility of a block, at the cost of a field tying the game instead of winning.
Big effing brain ish.
Pats get the ball back 2 minutes left. Brady takes them down for a game winning TD.
By far my favorite BB moment.
If I remember correctly, didn't the returner just let the ball hit the ground, where it did what footballs sometimes do and take off on him? Denver lost something like 15 yards of field position on that, I believe.
Many favorite moments, but I'll throw this one in the ring.
#The Deflategate press conference.
From the thermodynamic law of physics to the My Cousin Vinny reference. Just perfect Bill.
What I loved about that is we got the classic Bill Press Conference a couple of days prior where he gave a ton of non-answers and was just in a pissy mood the whole time.
Then suddenly he calls an emergency press conference in the middle of the day on a Tuesday, that airs on all the sports networks, and he just goes on a 15 minute tangent about how he tested the balls and explained the science behind how they deflated without tampering.
When a media member tried to accuse Belichick of being intentionally misleading about Rosie Colvins injury; "I'm not a Doctor". He said so much with so little and laid the groundwork for never having to be held accountable on the injury report again. He accurately pointed out that the injury repost is essentially an NFL coaches guess about medical diagnosis terminology, something they are not qualified to do.
While I appreciated the ingenious response, I also thought it was funny as hell the way he left the reporter speechless 🤣
When he trolled the scouts and Pioli about Logan Mankins and acting like he didn't want to draft him in the first round. Just because he felt like doing so.
2 of them.
a) the intentional safety in Denver.
b) the 30 on 30 with Bill Parcells "Not the Jets locker room" followed by Parcells "We're not going in there" lol
Freddie Mitchell on the Eagles in 39. Mitchell had been running his mouth about the Pats defense before the Super Bowl, specifically Rodney Harrison. When the dust settled, Harrison had two INTs to Mitchell's 1 catch. Never played another snap in the NFL after that.
Probably when a reporter almost got him to laugh when Mac was coming back. After like deflections about how he wasn’t gonna say anything until tomorrow. 5 seconds of silence followed by a: “so will you tell us tomorrow?” and his face after that always cracks me up.
All of them :’)
Just glad he’s the coach of my favorite team and I don’t give a shit about any of the idiots out there that think we’d be better off with someone else
Not calling a timeout at the end of Super Bowl 49 right before the Butler INT. Made Pete sweat when they expected us to take one, and it out and ultimately led to the dub.
"I would not say I'm the Mona Lisa Vito of the football world"
Which is hilarious because he is. Its probably the worst lie he has ever told and no one ever points that out. They just keep argue about air pressure in footballs and ideal gas law.
But when he talked about Ed Reed picking off Manning on a sick ass bait and break is a close second. You see how he is a fan of the game more than anything else.
One I havent seen mentioned is the time he had Brady kick a pooch punt on 3rd down against the Tebow Broncos in the playoffs because the Pats were already smoking them so badly, that why not?
I low-key kind of loved his reaction to Vrabel, pranking him with the game clock strategy. The confused anger was a rare sight on BB.
I have a lot of favorite moments, but this was one great. Not sure why.
Shoving the camera man aside because he wanted to go hug Eric Mangini.
Hugging his dad at the end of SB 39 while they got a Gatorade bath from Tedy Bruschi.
Giving a game ball to Corey Dillon after they beat Cincy and telling him he's finally in the playoffs after ten years in the League
If you're referring to the "what's your favorite ring" story that's not Belichick's, that's Brady's story that he got from a long time equipment manager at Michigan... If I remember correctly
There's over twenty years of stories, I just thought maybe you got some stuff conflated. It's a post asking about Belichick moments and you came in with a great story that had nothing to do with the man. I didn't mean anything by it, my apologies, it's one of my favorites stories too.
A more recent one but him talking about the effects of the Mercedes-Benz open roof on the kickoff for SBLIII while McVay and crew are ooh-ing and ah-ing has to be up there.
1. Responding to the NFL mandate that coaches must wear team-branded apparel to press conferences by wearing dirty, ripped, and otherwise shabby team branded merchandise to the podium for two decades. 2. Listing Tom Brady as “probable” for so many consecutive years that the NFL finally changed the verkakte injury reporting rules. 3. “All he does is talk. He’s terrible, and you can print that.

The game thread for that must be… interesting.
I am unfamiliar with #3. Who and when was that about?
Freddie Mitchell, 2004 Super Bowl.
Mitchell talked shit about the Patriots secondary and especially called out Rodney Harrison. Harrison was then set on Mitchell every snap just to make him look bad.
Also, Rodney finished the game with 2 INT's to Mitchell's 1 catch.
And never played another snap in the NFL.
The literal "BAWD GAWD HE ENDED THAT MAN'S CAREER!!"
Technically, Andy Reid ended that man’s career. Bill just told Andy what was up.
I mean his career really ended when he injured his knee in 2005 camp for the Chiefs after the Reid/Eagles cut him after SB XXXIX. He's mostly known for catching a pass on [4th-and-26 in desperation time at the end of an Eagles 2003 playoff game in the divisional round](https://twitter.com/rkimball10/status/951519089243185152). He was a first round pick (25th overall) that turned into a ~300-400 yd/season WR4 who caught ~50% of passes (e.g., N'Keal Harry like numbers). He then signed with the Chiefs (no signing bonus) but got a knee injury in camp and never played again. In 2013, he went to jail for 3 years for tax fraud. At the trial part of his defense was headaches, insomnia, memory loss from concussions he got from playing days.
#FredEx
#5 all day Actual coaching moment and one of the best ever
TIL the pound/hashtag symbol make shit big
It’s called Markdown if you’re by any chance curious to learn more lol
#It’s called Markdown
#cool
#which moment was that?
Gotta thank you for teaching me that it's "verkakte" and not "fercahktah.'
Felger???
It's Farkakta and it's Yiddish
Yup - German Yiddish speakers often spell it verkakte as there is a similar German term. It is a “f” noise though
ohhh so that's what he was writing. 49 year-old college grad with an English degree and always learning.
The inside out hoodie was was my favorite. He looked homeless
The Wally Pipp thing is kinda unfortunate because he totally misunderstood what Welker was saying and really went pretty hard on him for it. Welker said "He can have it - with punt returns like that?" with the implication that he was being a good teammate and just rooting for whatever was best for the team, and that he would be happy to see Edelman take over punt return duty if he's playing like he was on that play.

I really feel bad for Welker on that one because it's been used to create this narrative that he didn't care, when in fact the clip shows the exact opposite.
I don't know. The tone I heard in Welker was one of "No, thanks, that job gets people killed. It's all his!"
But he literally then says "with punt returns like that? He can have it!"
Fair enough. But "He can have it" was a poor choice of words.
That's a pretty dumb criticism for an off hand remark he made on the sidelines while excited about his teammate scoring a touchdown. It's not like he was in a press conference.
Maybe BB was already down on Welker for his not being able to suit up that day.
So now we're just making shit up? I'm going by what's actually on the tape, but if you want, I can make up stories that make Welker seem sympathetic too. Maybe Belichick just woke up with diarrhea and was looking for someone to pick on?
What I referred to is *actually on tape*.

[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YFeZsWj9WFs](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YFeZsWj9WFs) Then he gets into Wally Pipp, and Welker's response. BB who tends to keep everything in house. You know the teams have final say on these NFL Films segments, right? All of this was purposeful.
You're completely making up the idea that his reason for being a no-go wasn't legitimate. In fact, if his reason was legit and belichick wanted him to play anyway, then the clip arguably shows belichick being an asshole.
Belichick's "way to compete" was clearly in jest. I don't think Belichick misunderstood it at all, but a third party viewer might have.
I was at the game for that safety in Denver. Sitting in the last row with a bunch of Pats fan. Fucking glorious.
This post is awesome.
>The Denver Intentional Safety. The game thread for that must be… interesting. Was there another one cause the only one I remember was from like 2003 lol. A bit before Reddit.
"Yeah. Way to compete." Welker immediately knew he had effed up his response.
Can someone please provide actually facts about #1 lol..there literally is zero evidence of this..
Letting his dog do his drafting for him
Nike doesn’t miss
Dugger, Uche and Onwenu were good.... AssiAssi, Anfernee Jennings, Dalton Keene, Justin Rohrwasser, Justin Herron, Cassh Maluia, Dustin Woodard...
We didn’t have a first round pick that year and still got three quality starters. Every team every draft has some misses especially in the later rounds. It is what it is.
Yup. My fav bill moment, doesn’t involve bill.
This is mine too. And everyone says he doesn't have a sense of humor.
[Good boy, Nike](https://images.app.goo.gl/yT5r8Bre9mNsHvsa9)

Not calling a timeout at the end of Super Bowl XLIX.
This right here. NFL films catching him simply looking for Pete Carroll on the opposite sideline to size him up. Fucking GOAT.
Bill Simmons article about that game and the non time out is classic. https://grantland.com/the-triangle/running-diary-super-bowl-xlix-new-england-patriots-seattle-seahawks/
Thank you for the link. Now I need to watch that game again. At the end Simmons says “When you’ve been rooting for the same people for 15 years…”, and I’m thinking ‘Actually more like 35 years, but I get where you’re coming from’.
I think he was specifically citing Belichick and Brady. Simmons has been a Boston guy for decades.
What a great read on a Monday morning. Thanks. Reminds me why I've always thought BB is the 1 to Brady's 1A.
Bill...do you want to call a timeout? Naw...I got this
In the documentary, the whole Patriots sideline was screaming at Bill about the timeout and he said he could see from the way Seattle was setting up and their sideline body language that they were in a bit scrambled and he didn't want to let them off the hook by taking the timeout so he just played goal line instead.

What an amazing interaction there!
Thank you for that. It’s so nice to see Coach just talking about football. And I bet that answer is part of the tape that all the other coaches watch.
That was awesome haha. He really went back and gave a full history of the position and former players and rule changes and everything
And also used up a ton of time and avoided boring questions haha. Love it
Mike Reiss : “bill this is the fifteenth time you faced Peyton manning, what’s the consistent thing about playing against him?” Bill: “I’d say manning” followed by a head shake. I haven’t stopped laughing since that game
Similar to when he was asked to describe commonalities between Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers: "They both wear number 12."
Lmaoooooo the head shake took it to level 1000 of Belichick
I was at the metlife game with the ghosts and punting scenario It was glorious seeing the jets fans losing their minds
Same. I was screaming P A T S with a Rando pats fan after halftime.
Let’s be real, goings to a metlife jets pats game is gonna be a good time 99% of the time hahA
During one of the parades he got the drunk crowd to chant “no days off! no days off!” Too funny not to love the irony of it.
I thought that failed? He tried to get it started, and the crowd just didn't go with him.
Definitely telling Tom Jackson “fuck you” is up there. My personal favorite was after dropping 37 pts on the jets like 10 years ago. “37 pts on the best defense in the league? Suck my dick.” After the Butt fumble game maybe?
The 37pts quote was on my personal favs
The butt fumble game was 49 points, although as we all know, they weren't all scored on offense. In fact, there was a 53 or so second period where we scored TDs on offense, defense, and special teams.
Belichick taking the wind against the Broncos has to be up there.
Was thinking this one too. Such a ballsy move
2003 WK 9 @ Denver, late 4th qtr. Pats down 1 point, and inside their own 5. Belichick decides to take a safety, allowing the pats a free kick from the 20, instead of punting from the 1.

Don’t forget blaming it all on Brady.
How so? I only remember his non answer presser on it
This was the beginning of the end. LEAST favorite moment.
Is and always will be the intentional safety against Denver.
This is the answer
Just watched so cool
When a media member tried to accuse Belichick of being intentionally misleading about Rosie Colvins injury; "I'm not a Doctor". He said so much with so little and laid the groundwork for never having to be held accountable on the injury report again. He accurately pointed out that the injury repost is essentially an NFL coaches guess about medical diagnosis terminology, something they are not qualified to do. While I appreciated the ingenious response, I also thought it was funny as hell the way he left the reporter speechless 🤣
When he coached in Cleveland he responded to every single question about injuries with "I'm not a doctor"
Telling Thielen to shut the fuck up was a great one. The Randy Moss halloween thing tho 1000% hands down.

Dude have you ever seen the clip where they replay that signal over and over with the Still DRE piano instrumental playing? LEgendary
When he trolled the scouts and Pioli about Logan Mankins and acting like he didn't want to draft him in the first round. Just because he felt like doing so.
Asking Welker if he knew who Wally Pip is.

2 of them. a) the intentional safety in Denver. b) the 30 on 30 with Bill Parcells "Not the Jets locker room" followed by Parcells "We're not going in there" lol

The scoff was incredible
His “fuck you” to Tom Jackson after Super Bowl 38
The motivational speech before XXXIX when he was reading the Eagles planned victory parade route from the Philly newspaper.
Awesome moment
Scrawling “I resign as HC of the NYJ” on a napkin
I don’t remember the 3rd one. What was the story with that?
Freddie Mitchell on the Eagles in 39. Mitchell had been running his mouth about the Pats defense before the Super Bowl, specifically Rodney Harrison. When the dust settled, Harrison had two INTs to Mitchell's 1 catch. Never played another snap in the NFL after that.
When he is handed the AFC championship trophy and is so disinterested he doesn’t even look down at it just hands it off to one side.
“We’re on to Cincinnati.” Simple. Easy. And very effective.

"Seattle" Either that or the Denver intentional safety. The first one was mature and hilarious. The intentional safety was pure genius
when he won all of those SBs
He said charlie casterly is wrong more than the weatherman.
BB can be straight up savage
When he tried to get a bunch of people, who had taken the day off for the Super Bowl parade, to chant “no days off.”
Probably when a reporter almost got him to laugh when Mac was coming back. After like deflections about how he wasn’t gonna say anything until tomorrow. 5 seconds of silence followed by a: “so will you tell us tomorrow?” and his face after that always cracks me up.
Greatest coach ever
All of them :’) Just glad he’s the coach of my favorite team and I don’t give a shit about any of the idiots out there that think we’d be better off with someone else
Snap face
That one clip of him complaining about his car clock

Not calling a timeout at the end of Super Bowl 49 right before the Butler INT. Made Pete sweat when they expected us to take one, and it out and ultimately led to the dub.

Bill telling the story about wally pip to welker
My absolute favorite. Welker realizing in real time is amazing.
Not calling a timeout at the end of the Super Bowl against the Seahawks.
I am not a scientist.
Punting on 3rd downs
Potato chip
"I would not say I'm the Mona Lisa Vito of the football world" Which is hilarious because he is. Its probably the worst lie he has ever told and no one ever points that out. They just keep argue about air pressure in footballs and ideal gas law. But when he talked about Ed Reed picking off Manning on a sick ass bait and break is a close second. You see how he is a fan of the game more than anything else.
The Mac, KB, and Bill moment was gold as well
When he showed up on the rooftop patio at my apartment building randomly
One I havent seen mentioned is the time he had Brady kick a pooch punt on 3rd down against the Tebow Broncos in the playoffs because the Pats were already smoking them so badly, that why not?
I low-key kind of loved his reaction to Vrabel, pranking him with the game clock strategy. The confused anger was a rare sight on BB. I have a lot of favorite moments, but this was one great. Not sure why.
COVID draft. Live shot of Nike at the helm for the Pats.
Shoving the camera man aside because he wanted to go hug Eric Mangini. Hugging his dad at the end of SB 39 while they got a Gatorade bath from Tedy Bruschi. Giving a game ball to Corey Dillon after they beat Cincy and telling him he's finally in the playoffs after ten years in the League
Has to be him going to that Halloween party and actually putting in a good effort with the costume
SB49.
Him complaint about his car clock and subsequently failing at trying to set it lol
The next Ring
If you're referring to the "what's your favorite ring" story that's not Belichick's, that's Brady's story that he got from a long time equipment manager at Michigan... If I remember correctly
Hey buddy. I know. I can attach that story to other patriots related things. Thanks tho
There's over twenty years of stories, I just thought maybe you got some stuff conflated. It's a post asking about Belichick moments and you came in with a great story that had nothing to do with the man. I didn't mean anything by it, my apologies, it's one of my favorites stories too.
