Bill Belichick’s 24 seasons as the Patriots’ head coach were mostly filled with positives, winning six Super Bowls and playing in nine of them. But the two dozen years he had in New England weren’t all perfect, making some mistakes along the way.
The former Patriots head coach admitted to some of those mistakes in his upcoming book, “The Art of Winning: Lessons from My Life in Football.” Belichick dedicated a chapter in his upcoming book to the mistakes he’s made in his coaching career, with the two most notable admissions being the Patriots’ decision not to draft Lamar Jackson in 2018 and being unable to keep Tom Brady due to financial reasons, according to The Boston Globe‘s Ben Volin.
