Here’s What Bill Belichick Told Patriots After Disappointing Season

While Tom Brady is preparing to play in his 10th Super Bowl, his old team already is a month into its offseason.

The New England Patriots finished 7-9 in their first season without the superstar quarterback, posting their worst record since 2000 and missing the playoffs for the first time since 2008.

Speaking Wednesday on SiriusXM NFL Radio, Patriots defensive tackle and co-captain Lawrence Guy paraphrased head coach Bill Belichick’s message to the team after its uncharacteristically disappointing campaign.

“Coach is going to do what he’s got to do,” Guy said when asked about the Patriots’ plan moving forward.
