As head coach of the New England Patriots, he's led the team to five Super Bowl championship trophies. In this revelatory and robust biography, readers will come to understand and see Belichick's full life in football, from watching college games as a kid with his father, a Naval Academy scout, to orchestrating two Super Bowl-winning game plans as defensive coordinator for the Giants, to his dramatic leap to New England, where he has made history. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Award-winning columnist and \u003cem\u003eNew York Times \u003c\/em\u003ebest-selling author 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 been previously unexplored. O'Connor discovers how this legendary coach shaped the people he met and worked with in ways perhaps even Belichick himself doesn't know. Those who follow and love pro football know Bill Belichick only as the hooded genius of the Patriots. But there is so much more--from the hidden tensions and deep layers to his relationship with Tom Brady to his sometimes frosty dealings with owner Robert Kraft to his ability to earn the unmitigated respect of his players--if not their affection. This is a man who has many facets and, ultimately, 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.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIAN O'CONNOR is a senior writer at ESPN.com, a nationally acclaimed columnist, and the author of three previous books, including the\u003ci\u003e New York Times \u003c\/i\u003ebestsellers \u003ci\u003eArnie and Jack\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eThe Captain: The Journey of Derek Jeter.\u003c\/i\u003e He has won more than a dozen national writing contests.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 528\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.5 x 7.9 x 5.3 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e September 10, 2019\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47467868094717,"sku":"9780358118213","price":26.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/3414\/0157\/files\/RGxaSjJ5UEdIL2N6RWhNTTRyb2ZpQT09.webp?v=1777281243","url":"https:\/\/booktolia.com\/products\/belichick-the-making-of-the-greatest-football-coach-of-all-time-paperback","provider":"booktolia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
