Wild Rumor: Ex Patriots QB Claims Cowboys Hiring Belichick
The final three games of the regular season may mark Bill Belichick’s final three games as the coach of the New England Patriots, however this is not a given.
But even if it appears like Belichick is about to get fired or have a “mutual parting of ways,” a lot of people have already begun to suggest teams that he might join as his next stop.
The most recent wild speculation comes from Scott Zolak, a former Patriots quarterback who is now a radio personality. According to Zolak, Belichick might join the Dallas Cowboys, one of the NFL’s most successful teams, instead of staying with one.
Dallas is beginning to take shape, in my opinion. On 98.5 The Sports Hub’s Zolak & Bertrand, the former Patriot stated, “You see the Dallas swoon starting to begin.”
“Two days ago, Buffalo kicked their assholes. Buffalo dealt with them as they pleased. When you align it, you see that they have a potent offensive line, a talented running back, and a standout quarterback.
You have capable receivers. Guys, you got a great cover. Lawrence Taylor Jr. (Micah Parsons) is your pick at number 11. You have strong safeties and a large defensive line.”
Zolak went as far as to say that it’d be a “turn-key” operation for Belichick as the Cowboys already boasted a talented roster and have for many years.
However, for some reason, they haven’t been able to get over the proverbial hump since their last Super Bowl back in 1995.
Yet, even though the Cowboys haven’t as much as sniffed an NFC Championship game since 1995, is Belichick to Dallas an actual possibility?

Judging by a recent comment from Cowboys owner Jerry Jones, there doesn’t look to be any hint of unsatisfaction with the work of current Coach Mike McCarthy, who just clinched his third appearance in the playoffs in four seasons in Dallas.
“He’s coached three playoff teams in a row,” Jones said of McCarthy. “He’s done an outstanding job.”
This makes that “outstanding job” by McCarthy a major roadblock for Zolak’s prediction of Belichick leaving Foxboro for Dallas.
Yet, things could change if the Cowboys suffer another disappointing early postseason exit.
However, in the meantime, it seems safe to assume that Belichick will likely end up elsewhere if he decides to coach after his time with the Patriots ends.
