Description

From a New York Times best-selling writer, the definitive biography of the NFL’s most enigmatic, controversial, and yet successful coach, Bill Belichick.

Bill Belichick is in all probability the most fascinating figure in the NFL—the infamously dour face of one of the most winningest franchises in sports. As head coach of the New England Patriots, he’s led the team to five Super Bowl championship trophies. In this revelatory new and robust biography, readers will come to remember and see Belichick’s full life in football, from watching Naval Academy games as a kid with his player-scout father, to masterminding two Super Bowl–winning game plans as defensive coordinator for the Giants, to his dramatic leap to the Patriots where he has made history.  
 
Veteran sports creator and award-winning writer Ian O’Connor delves into the mind of the man who has earned a place among coaching legends like Lombardi, Halas, and Paul Brown, presenting sides of Belichick that have in the past been unexplored. O’Connor discovers how this legendary coach shaped the people he met and worked with in ways in all probability even Belichick himself doesn’t know. Those who follow and love pro football know Bill Belichick only as the hooded genius of the Patriots, a team shrouded in victory and controversy. But there is so a lot more—from the hidden tensions and deep layers to his relationship with Tom Brady to his from time to time frosty dealings with owner Robert Kraft to the surprising camaraderie he shares with the team. This can be a man who has many facets and, in the end, has created a notorious football dynasty. Based on exhaustive research and countless interviews, this book circles around Belichick to tell his full story for the first time, and presents an incisive portrait of a mastermind at work.
