With the New England Patriots being just one of two teams that are officially out of postseason contention, the team can definitively start looking ahead. This week, one of the big storylines revolved around head coach Bill Belichick. According to a report, the Patriots have already decided on Belichick's fate. With some thinking he could be fired due to such a poor season and an inability to win in a post-Tom Brady era, it looks as though a departure is now imminent. The report suggests that New England has already decided to part ways with Belichick. But, the question is, how? They could mutually part ways, or another team could swoop in with heavy interest and whip up a trade for the Hall of Fame coach.
