Nba live 2003 controller9/22/2023 If only there was a comparable person, someone in today’s player-empowered sports scene, who could understand what Belichick will face now, in his 48 th year of coaching in the NFL, in his 28 th year as a head coach. He’s the head coach, GM, controller of the coaching staff, prime culture-builder of a six-time Super Bowl champion, orchestrating the construction of a post-Brady franchise. I don’t know what to make of Bobby Bowden and Joe Paterno, who seemed to be figureheads more than coaches as they held head-coach titles past age 80.īelichick’s no figurehead. Curly Lambeau was done at 55, Chuck Noll at 59, Tom Landry at 64, John Wooden at 64, Don Shula at 65, Scotty Bowman at 68. Red Auerbach coached his last Celtics game at 48, shocking as that might seem. Most of the greatest coaches of all time, in all sports, have been gone long before 70. It’s so hard today to figure out how big a deal that is, because modern life has changed what age means. Bill Belichick turns 70 on Saturday, with no end in sight to his transcendent coaching tenure in New England.
