Question is: Will he stay with the Patriots until their season is over?


I think he will.

[Dozerdog]

I think contractually he's obligated- they probably would not allow him to even interview if that was the understanding.

[Tatonka]

wow.. just got home from getting drunk at the year end hockey team party to some good news.. what a good night.

f new england.

Unlike inteviewing for NFL coach jobs, the NFL has no control over coaches interviewing in colleges so they do not need to 'let' him interview but most assistant coaches would only do so when their job allowed it. They could go after him for breaking contract IF he were to leave in mid-season IF his contract (remember most coaches have agents too) does not have a clause preventing from penalizing him.

i wonder if this will be enough of a change. Somehow the Pats put all the pieces together over the past few years. It hurts me to admit that they really are that good.

I am sure they have some offensive assistants on that staff that learned from Weis over the years and can take over and do a good job. However, losing Weis will hurt more than losing Romeo Cremmel since BB is a defensive guru and not offensive and Weis is very respected. It will be interesting to see what happens to the offense next year.
