Video: Tom Brady Interviewed Bill Belichick On His Latest Let’s Go Podcast

Kings of Boston Sports



On his first “Let’s Go!” podcast since announcing his retirement Tom Brady was joined by Bill Belichick who spoke proudly of all of Tom Brady’s accomplishments over his 23 years in the NFL.

“The greatest player, the greatest career,” Belichick said. “A great, great person. It was such an opportunity and an honor for me to coach Tom. I guess it’s gotta end at some point. But it’s the greatest one ever. So, congratulations, Tom.”

In their 20 seasons together, Brady and Belichick went to nine Super Bowls, won six of them, and dominated the AFC in a way that we are not likely to ever see again.

“For me, there’s nobody I’d rather be associated with,” Brady said. “From my standpoint, I think it’s always such a stupid conversation to say, ‘Brady vs. Belichick’ because, in my mind, that’s not what a partnership is about. Coach couldn’t play quarterback and I couldn’t coach.

“In my view, people were always trying to pull us apart. I don’t think we ever felt like that with each other. We never were trying to pull each other apart. We actually were always trying to go in the same direction.”

According to Brady they did not always see eye to eye, but the respect was clearly mutual.

“I think that’s one thing I appreciate about Coach Belichick in life: He’s not afraid to have a hard conversation,” Brady said. “We didn’t always agree, but we always respected each other. I know he respected me for the job that I did and I certainly did the same. I think even when you go away from each other, you respect each other probably that much more. I certainly did because I realized the commitment he was trying to make to get our team to win.”
