New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick has a bit of a reputation for being one of the more challenging coaches to play for in the NFL. However, one Patriots legend does not see it that way.
Former Patriots cornerback Ty Law believes Belichick is a very personable coach, unless you’re dealing with him during contract time.
“That’s the only time me and Bill didn’t get along—contract time,” Law said, when appearing on “The Greg Hill Show.” “I’ll say it every time. Bill is the coolest and dopest coach. Personable, you can always go talk to him. The only time that he’s an ass—and I will call him an ass. So when he comes on here, Bill knows, I will call him an ass during contract time. That’s the only time. Other than that, man, Bill is solid as a rock.”

Law would know a thing or two about playing under Belichick. After all, he was one of the greatest corners in Patriots history.
Law would end up winning three Super Bowls with the team, and he is now a member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame. His comments are something to keep in mind with the offseason approaching.
Belichick will have to make some difficult free agent decisions, particularly with key players like safety Kyle Dugger and guard Mike Onwenu. One has to wonder how those negotiations will play out.
