In a man who is a Super Bowl champion ladies and gentlemen the last human that bill bich talked to on the field as the New England Patriots head coach Aaron Rogers Aaron how you doing pal can you guys see me yeah you look fantastic you look great clearer than whenever you usually call us from wherever actually okay good yeah because I’m out here in the woods so I’m I’m glad I can’t see you guys so this is perfect you look

Great you need to know that you’re out in the woods obviously doing your offseason stuff activities activities Ventures uh is that a good way to describe it that the offseason has begun yes okay perfect uh I’m happy you take some time here to chitchat with us because obviously with Bill bellich you

Were the last human that he talked to on the field as the New England Patriots head coach now we know that for sure whenever you think about them moving on Connor got emotional about the dynasty ending officially what are your thoughts on Bill bich leaving New England but

Definitely going to play somewhere or coach somewhere else is that what he said did he say he’s going to definitely keep coaching I mean he’s a life yeah he seems like a lifer um it’s tough I mean you have not just bill but but Nick Sab announced his

Retirement is that true as well yeah yeah yeah I’ve been kind of um you know insulated here from a lot of the internet internet’s a little spotty here um you know in the woods so it’s kind of nice but I did see that and and uh it’s

Too bad you know it’s those are two iconic iconic coaches um I think in general when we play this game we love this game um there’s this idea about game changers and people who actually changeed the game and in in in actal there’s very few people who really move

The game forward players or coaches but when you talking about people who actually made a difference in the game and move the game forward and were Trailblazers and Game Changers Bill bich and Nick Sabin were those guys and Bill uh did things his own way and had a ton

Of success with it and people tried to copy it and couldn’t do it um I think that’s the greatest compliment you can give Bill besides the uh the respect of competing against him and that’s what I always try to give when I saw him you know one of my favorite things about

Bill is uh his love for the game whether he’s talking about the top 100 players or uh you know watching some of those segments or or whether it’s him and I BS on the field before week 18 ultimately meaningless as far as in the standings game about a

2019 game that happened at MetLife and you know throwing a backside post route to Alan Lazard in the kind of a a torrential uh you know snow snowdown um was just the guy he is but but the my favorite my favorite story of my own interaction with Bill was we

Played him in in uh in 2018 and 20122 and both times he waited uh to make sure that he saw me after the game and I just thought that was one of the classiest things ever and and I have so much respect for him doing that 2018 I

Was having a conversation with with Tom they beat us at their place and he waited and after you know because coaches a lot of times just go over shake the other coach’s hand sometimes there’s some words back and forth but go over shake the other coach’s hand and

Then they’re out right uh but Bill waited for me and and then in 2022 I actually was doing an interview on the field after we beat him in a game that went back and forth and Bill waited until my interview ended and I just thought that was one of the coolest

Classiest things ever I mean this is a absolute no-brainer Hall of Fame Game Changer guy who was a Trailblazer in the league and did things no one’s ever done before um arguably the greatest coach uh in NFL history uh and probably will have the record for wins If he if he wants to

Keep going uh in the near future and he waited for me to finish my you know my press conference or on the field interview to to say something nice so I have a ton of respect for bill um and and and Nick as well I mean I I

Interview with Nick Savin uh in at Berkeley in 2005 when he was a head coach of Miami Dolphins and uh we obviously went our own ways after that and he had incredible success and I’ve enjoyed watching him on the show this year on your show um so uh kudos to to

Nick on a Hall of Fame career and the amount of players young men that he’s impacted is exponential Bill love you man so much respect you changed the game and continue uh to do that I know you you will keep doing that so I don’t think it’s a retirement for Bill not

Sure about Nick I mean I feel like he’s a lifer two maybe he wants to go on a coaching or sorry TV and out of coaching and take some stress off or spend more time with his kids grandkids wife whatever it might be but um those the

The game is better with it’s college or Pro when uh when those guys are in it hey thank you for taking time out of your Woods Retreat that you’re on right now to give a little love to Bill bellich and Sabin as they move into a next chapter you’re the man mustache

Looks good too no Darkness here this is you can tell there’s a lot of light good books to actually read behind Me
