Robert Kraft is not happy, and the unthinkable may be possible in New England.
According to The Athletics’ Jeff Howe, the Patriots owner has “grown frustrated, if not downright angry” with Bill Belichick after the team’s recent blowout losses to the Dallas Cowboys and New Orleans Saints. Here are a few lines from his article: “There’s a school of thought that suggests Bill Belichick has earned the right to go out on his own accord, that the architect of the greatest dynasty in NFL history can coach in New England as long as he chooses,” Jeff Howe reports. “Kraft doesn’t subscribe to it.”
Howe would also go on to say “Kraft likes to remind people he grew up as a Patriots fan during the organization’s darkest days,” Howe writes. “But that doesn’t mean he has patience to endure more of them. On multiple occasions in recent years, he has lamented the team’s lack of a postseason victory in the post-Brady era. … Kraft has grown frustrated, if not downright angry, over this shortage of success.” Howe adds that Kraft won’t be scared to fire Belichick if the Patriots season continues to spiral. If this happens, many believe in the Patriots camp Jerod Mayo will take over as Head coach. The Patriots haven’t had much success since Tom Brady walked out the door. The Pats are 26-29 in the post-Brady era with only one playoff appearance.
