Bill Belichick to the A's…I don't care if you look at that swag.
The Atlanta Falcons announced Monday night that Bill Belichick has interviewed with the organization for the head coaching position.
Belichick is currently 6th coach Who I interviewed for this live show (oh my goodness, I've already interviewed 6 people?), who won 6 Super Bowls in 24 seasons with the New England Patriots and built an absolutely legendary dynasty. Considering that, obviously he's a little different. Tom Brady is arguably the greatest of all time. (Related article: Could Bill Belichick head to Dallas? Rumors get tougher after Cowboys' epic playoff loss)
After parting ways with the Pats, Belichick is now a free agent and could return to coach the Falcons, or the Falcons will at least be the first franchise he interviews with. Personally, I think it's the latter.
Atlanta also has San Francisco 49ers defensive coordinator Steve Wilkes, Cincinnati Bengals offensive coordinator Brian Callahan, Baltimore Ravens defensive coordinator Mike McDonald, and Ravens assistant head coach and defensive line coach Anthony. They are also eyeing Weaver and Carolina Panthers defensive coordinator Ejiro Ebello.

After this news, I 100% believe the rumor that Belichick met with Falcons owner Arthur Blank on a superyacht about potentially becoming Atlanta's next head coach. (You can read the blog I wrote about it here)
And my position from that blog is still the same: I don't think Belichick is going to the Falcons, but rather the Dallas Cowboys.
Where else could this walking iconic brand go?
