FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- Maybe Bill Belichick has never for a second pondered that one day he could be fired as Patriots coach. But the way the guy peeks under every stone, it is a good bet that is ground he has covered, too. Remember, he was axed in Cleveland 15 years ago. No matter the time or distance of the act, it is a piercing, everlasting wound for a coach.
So, on this night where Belichick once again flashed his grit, it was revealed before kickoff that his youngest pupil, Josh McDaniels, had been fired as Denver Broncos coach. It was also clear this week that the Patriots owner, Robert Kraft, had said this clash against the Jets was the biggest regular-season game in his 17-year ownership.
The Belichick way is to treat every game as equal. His team is taught to simply practice, play, execute.
But if the owner says he really wants it, it is a good idea to give it. Give it all.
I think 45-3 will do.
