Bill Belichick rumor: This team is giving the former Patriots coach a job.
Arthur Blank is a big Belichick fan. The fact that Bill Belichick and the Nightingales could not come to an agreement may be a mutual decision.Atlanta interviewed Belichick twice after the future Pro Football Hall of Fame coach left the New England Patriots.
But the Nightingale finally hired Raheem Morris to replace Belichick, who may have to wait until 2025 for a coach.On Monday’s episode of Boomer and Gio, former NFL quarterback Boomer Esiason offered new details about how Belichick’s flirtation with the Falcons played out. “The NFL boss told me he thought Arthur Blank offered Bill the job,” Esiason said. “There may be some caveats to this proposal.

I want you Here’s a 5 year contract. “Do what you want.” I don’t think this is one of them. “Okay, I understand your concerns, but you’re going to have to deal with some of this.” We want you to come in. We want you to be our coach.””Maybe he’ll think about it more and maybe he’ll say, ‘You know what? I don’t want to go in right away. I want to leave for a year.
I want to see what happens. Because we all know there will be about 5 or 6 open positions next year. And the owner will say, “You know what? I want to go down this path with you, and I want you to take over my building and run it like you ran it for the New England Patriots.”Time will tell if the Falcons made the right choice in the Arthur Smith trade. With Belichick emerging as a hot commodity next season, regrets could be right around the corner for Atlanta.
