It all started with speculation as to what would happen if Belichick were to join Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills. In this prospective story, the host Pat McAfee and his guest Schefter talked about how the fans would be fuming over the idea of Belichick ever joining the Bills. Just like some fans were upset at Tom Brady joining the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the same thing can happen to Bill Belichick. But getting slandered is not the problem here.

McAfee and Schefter discussed how Belichick’s hiring comes with a lot of hurdles too that many teams might not be ready to take on.
