Not much has gone right for the Patriots to start the 2023 NFL season. The team is off to a 1–4 start and coach Bill Belichick is taking the brunt of the heat for it. But with frustrations and criticism on the rise, none other than Tom Brady stepped in to address the situation and defend his former coach.
Brady spoke about Belichick on his latest Let’s Go! podcast, and was asked whether he believes his longtime coach will continue to be the same guy he’s been throughout his career.
“Absolutely. I think that he’s got a very consistent approach that he’s always taken and, you know, it’s the right approach,” Brady said of Belichick, per ProFootballTalk. “It’s try to prepare the players, give them the best opportunity to succeed. You know, you get out there on the field in the end, the coaches, once the play is called in the players gotta go do it. And it takes a great coaching staff to win. It takes great players to win. It takes great front office support to win. It’s an organizational win. It’s an organizational loss.”
