In his latest interview with Barstool Sports’ Pardon My Take, Belichick spoke about Tom Brady’s resilience and how his way of working hard made him who he is.
Belichick shared that if one spends some time around Brady, they would understand how committed he is and how he takes small steps everyday that eventually turn into a very high performance.
“I mean, really, he was our fourth-string quarterback. You can’t name another fourth-string quarterback, I would say, in any level of football. That’s how far down he was. I mean, you couldn’t get any further on the bench than he was. He was a fourth-string. Never even played. Never even dressed. And then I brought in Damon Heward because I didn’t think he was good enough to be the backup. and he beat Huard out. And then Bledsoe got hurt. And then he didn’t lose games. He didn’t win many, but he didn’t lose them. And we won them on defense. We won them in the kicking game with Troy Brown’s punt returns and blocked field goals and so forth. And then he kept… And by 2003, 2004, we won games because of Tom Brady. and from 2004 on not only did we win games because of tom brady but every week he was the focal point of our opponents because we got to stop tom brady and what’s our game plan to stop tom brady and that’s the real greatness is when they’re doing something to stop you every single week and there’s a target on your back and you’re still producing an eye level yeah but i always say tom wasn’t great. Wasn’t even really good. But he became great.” Belichick said.

Bill Belichick was asked about his take on coffee in his interview and the now UNC head coach shared that he hates everything about it, be it how it tastes, how it smells, and even when it is in the form of ice cream.
Belichick doubled down on his take and said he can’t stand coffee and also added that he can’t even look at it, so when someone asks him if he can make coffee, his answer is pretty clear.
The UNC head coach then shared that if he was given a choice between the New York Jets and coffee, he would actually pick his former arch rivals, which is a big deal as his relationship with the franchise was extremely rocky.
