You’ve know you’ve struck a chord with New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick when he takes more than five minutes to answer a single question.
The topic that got him all riled up on Tuesday? Tablets.
It appears Belichick is ready to chuck his Microsoft Surface into the junk drawer. NFL teams are able to use the devices on sideline as a supposedly quicker — and better — way during games to view plays, formations, all-22 shots and the like. The interactive software is meant to give coaches an edge on adjusting strategy. But based on Belichick’s comments on Tuesday, it sounds like he’s going back to old school: pencil, paper, Polaroid and his brain.
