Classless Coach Belichick
 

I know, I should wait until 24-hrs. before I post. But, my emotions have the best of me at this moment. What a classless act Bill Belichick is. O.k., we're down 38 to zip late in the 2nd half and this fuck is throwing deep routes and anything else that may put more points on the board! What did we do to piss him off already?? Granted, the Pats out played us, out coached us, out scored us. Give them credit for that. They are an awesome force. But, when they had us beat, and beat bad, what did they do? They kept pouring it on. Enough! We're done. We're toast. Raise the freakin' white flag! I have never been a proponent of dirty play, but after it became apparent that Belichick was going to run up the score on the 'Skins, I would have sent the house on Brady on every single play. Yep, damn the torpedos. Even if it had caused a personal foul each and every blitz, if I were Gibbs and/or Greg Williams, I'd have pummeled Brady for Belichick's transgression. Buried his ass in the turf. Brady seemed so smug on the sidelines anyway. I only watched the end of the game to see what Gibbs' reaction would be when he met Belichick to shake hands. I was hoping for something similar to a Chuck Noll / Jerry Glanville interaction. Back in the day, Noll at least had the balls to get in Glanville's grille and let him know how he didn't appreciate how "Glandville" ran up the score on the Steelers that day. I have yet to see, or hear, any response from Gibbs after this embarrassing loss, but after the clock ran out, the camera was following Gibbs and it appeared that he simply avoided Belichick and ran off the field. Someone please tell me that I missed something and that Gibbs addressed this issue and stepped up for the team. Because if he didn't, I've lost a great amount of respect for him, and I love the guy. I had great respect for the Pats, and even Belichick, until today. I now hope they go down in a very very painful way.

They've run it up on everyone so far, it will come back to haunt them eventually.

Re: Classless Coach Belichick
 

Gibbs and Belichick shook hands following the game, and publicly he took the high road. But, I'm sure he had another stance alltogether behind closed doors to his players

Apparently Godfrey had some things to say about Belichick following the game though

Re: Classless Coach Belichick
 

Im on both sides of the fence with this...

One side definitely thinks people shouldn't complain about an opponent running up the score... If you don't like it than stop them. It was still frustrating to watch though. I am so disappointed right now.

Re: Classless Coach Belichick
 

I believe in karma. This will eventually come around on them. Sooner or later he'll leave Brady in there to run up the score and someone's going to get through that line and end The Golden Boy's career.

And the thing is, Belichick NEVER looks happy. Ever. I don't think he even really knows how to enjoy a win.

I believe Joe probably sleeps a lot better at night than Ol' Sweats does.

Re: Classless Coach Belichick
 

While the Redskins had some high scoring games in Gibbs' first tenure, he never ran the score up like this. If we had 30+ point lead heading into the 4th quarter, the back ups were put in or we just ran the ball to eat the clock away.

Exactly.

Re: Classless Coach Belichick
 

Belichick did exactly what he should have done. When a team self-destucts on the field of battle the opposition has absolutely no obligation to slow down. If the Skins had an opportunity to do this it would have been the right thing to do as well, but I think we all know that's not how it would play out. Hence the difference between teams with a killer instinct and teams without one. Belichick is a guy I respected but never liked. After today I respect him a little more.

Re: Classless Coach Belichick
 

I find it hard to have any respect for a coach who runs up a score. There's no need to show up your opponent. It's a total lack of class and humility, and those that support such a thing are also lacking in class and humility.

Not sure how you can respect him. Somebody else said it well, I thought: great coach, not such a great person. I happen to think you ought to strive to be both.

Re: Classless Coach Belichick
 

Belichick is all about winning, and in a sport where everyone gets paid millions and tens of millions to play the best sport in the world, he is the paradigm. Taking shots at his personal life (of which I've never really heard about) is cheap.

If you're asking who I would rather have a beer with (Gibbs or Belichick), it's Gibbs. If you're asking who should be respected more in the national football league, it's Belichick.

If you can't stand the heat then get out of the kitchen. This is the NFL, not pee wee league. Instead of blaming the Pats how about people around here start blaming the team that let the other team run it up on you. Have some f*#king pride and smack someone in the mouth. The 2nd string Qb scored a TD for crying out loud!!!!!

This is crybaby loser talk.

Who should be more respected this year, or in general? As far as I know, only one of those coaches is in the Hall of Fame. And it's not the one who was caught videotaping other teams' playcalling. Nor is it the one who's been suspected of jamming opposing teams' headsets, or who icily shuts out former coaching assistants who go on to take head coaching jobs with division rivals.

As many others have said, we have a thing called sportsmanship in the NFL. It is the reason that we all think spitting in another man's face is reprehensible, even if that means giving you an edge to win a game. It is the reason that what Albert Haynesworth did to Andre Gurode, stomping his head in a fit of aggression, is wrong. It is the reason that guys like Pac-Man Jones, Michael Vick, and Tank Johnson have served major suspensions for their off-field embarrassments despite being superb athletes who could help their team win.

It has nothing to do with a coach's personal life. It has everything to do with how a coach defines the leadership that personifies his team. I found it gaudy and embarrassing when "The Ol' Ball Coach" ran up the score on the Niners that one year, and it's no less gaudy now.

Re: Classless Coach Belichick
 

belicheck is a a$$hole with no class, and neither does his team. but my question is...is jason cambell the future of this team? i say no. we have have the best recieving core in football...santana moss, randel el. and none of them have scored a touchdown. portis and betts in the backfield. our defence speaks for itself. a good special teams. a hall of fame coach with 3 super bowl titles. i say it's time to sit cambell down. and send al saunders and his 700 page playbook back to kansas city!!! but that is just my opinion.

Re: Classless Coach Belichick
 

youre crazy if you think campbell should be benched. this is only his 14th start in the nfl, and he played the best team in the nfl today. i'd like to see anyone do anything positive behind that make shift o line.
