Why Patriots’ Super Bowl LI Run Has Been ‘Special’ For Bill Belichick
Share this: FOXBORO, Mass. — If this season means a little more to New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick it’s understandable. For the first time, Belichick is working with both of his sons, Steve and Brian. Brian, who has been around the team for years, even spending time on the sideline during games, officially joined the Patriots’ scouting department this offseason as an assistant. Steve has been on the Patriots’ coaching staff since 2012 but became a position coach for the first time in 2016, leading the safeties.

Tom Brady Opens Up About Donald Trump Friendship, Doesn’t Know Why It’s Big Deal
Share this: There really isn’t a lot of controversy surrounding the New England Patriots’ record ninth Super Bowl appearance, but that doesn’t mean the talk leading up to Super Bowl LI will be centered squarely on football. Given the political atmosphere in the country, paired with the Patriots’ unquestionable links to President Donald Trump, it’s safe to assume his name might come up a time or two in the two weeks leading up to the game in Houston. Patriots quarterback Tom Brady has a longstanding friendship with the new president, dating far back before Trump even considered a presidential run. That friendship really came to the forefront when Brady placed a “Make America Great Again” hat in his locker for the world to
