After enjoying so much success, this string of losses must hurt Belichick. However, the 71-year-old reveals his mindset in these tough times.

But HC also revealed his frame of mind in the current situation. He said, “I’m committed to the team that I’m coaching right now, the players that are here. They deserve my best every day and that’s what I’m going to give them”. With this mental fortitude, Belichick would give it all next, in what could potentially be his last game with the Patriots.

Both teams are ineligible for the playoffs and both teams would love to finish their seasons on a winning note. But only one can come out on top. And with his exit seemingly apparent, Belichick would want to end his time with a win and even if he stays, a win would solidify his position.
