He isn't going to change his mind and they're in desperate need of draft assets. This is their opportunity to reset the franchise with multiple first rounders in the next couple of drafts. They could come away with multiple firsts starting this year because of the Jets and Dolphins, including either the 2nd or 3rd pick of the draft.

I can't see how keeping him on the roster benefits them at all.

Getting really into the idea of Easterby denying Watson's trade request to send a message about Deshaun's life choices.

I mean there's been exactly one time where he hasn't just dropped a prepared statement and ran, and that was that shitshow of a press conference when Caserio was introduced

Some people lasted for days. Six hours is 5 carries for 21 yards.

you don't understand, jesus dying was so great that it's greater than everything else, even things that are categorically different. jesus dying was the the greatest game of all time because jesus was so great at dying that his dying became a better game than things which actually qualify as games.

so for the same reason, jesus dying is also the greatest invention of all time.
jesus dying is the greatest 80s hair metal power ballad.
jesus dying is the greatest slice of pizza in queens.
etc.

They hired the most worthless hanger-on to Belichick's coattails yet and kept giving the huckster more power lmao

It makes Broncos Head Coach Josh McDaniels look like Paul loving Brown hahaha

Just how do you do this?

quote:

To an outsider, they would seem an odd couple – the phlegmatic Bill Belichick and the effervescent Easterby. Yet ever since their initial conversation in 2013, when Belichick phoned Easterby out of the blue, they hit it off.

At the time, Easterby served as team chaplain for the Kansas City Chiefs, where he worked alongside people with New England ties to Belichick: Romeo Crennel, Scott Pioli, Brian Daboll, to name a handful. Though he'd heard plenty of stories about Belichick, Easterby had never met or spoken to him until the phone rang that day.

"He told me how important it was to him to grow people in the building," Easterby recalls. "Every time I've ever talked with Coach, he's been authentic, honest, straightforward, encouraging to me. He backs what we do, our subprogram within the big [football] program. He's been awesome. Coach is so committed to growing people. He grows us all every day in so many ways. I feel I serve him by making [the players] the best people we can make them."

quote:

The subject of Easterby has come up this week with the Patriots' upcoming matchup in Houston. This week, head coach Bill Belichick said his organization was grateful to have Easterby and lucky to have great leadership in the locker room to keep the ship afloat when the character coach left.

“After Jack was here for six years, you don’t replace Jack with one person,” Belichick said. “But we were very fortunate to have a lot of great players and players with leadership and with some of those skills of bringing players, teammates, families together and being good mentors and setting good examples and building a good team chemistry. So, yeah, we’ve been very fortunate to have that. ... We’re very fortunate to have the strength and quality of the players that we have on our team and in our organization.”

quote:

“He was really good for our football team, for the organization,” Belichick said this week. “He did everything I asked him to do and he had a good interaction, relationship with everybody in our building, from the support people, to the players, to the coaching staff and so forth. I learned a lot from Jack. I think we learned a lot from each other and we went through a lot together. So, he had a good, positive impact on our football team and on the organization.”

Huh. A Patriots fan squirming into here to try to rewrite history?

"Patriots livid over Easterman joining Texans," "Totally pissed them off" https://www.bostonsportsjournal.com/2019/06/18/bedard-patriots-burning-mad-jack-easterby-texans/

"You don't know JACK -- The most influential Patriot you've never heard of"


"Patriots thankful for their time with Easterby"



Boy they sure seemed to hate the guy!
