Bills Belichick and the New England Patriots were absolutely mauled in their Wild Card Weekend matchup against the Buffalo Bills.

The Patriots' 47-17 defeat was the second largest dealt against Bill Belichick and the most his New England teams have lost by in any postseason game.

But when asked whether the loss potentially knocked the wind out of his sails, the Patriots coach was adamant that he isn't going anywhere. Of course, he said it in the most Bill Belichick way possible.

Via Matthew Fairburn:

Bill Belichick asked if still wants to coach in 2022: “I’d say that would be accurate.”

The man is turning 70 years old later this year and has coached the New England Patriots for 22 consecutive seasons, with six Super Bowl rings in that span. But the passion and drive for the game is still clearly not lost on Bill Belichick.

Despite riding a rookie quarterback in Mac Jones, the Patriots made some noise during the middle of the season. At one point, they even held the top spot in the AFC as they went on a seven-game winning streak to propel them well into the postseason picture.

The Patriots' season didn't end on a high note. But just like always, Bill Belichick is ready to build it up all over again for another shot to play for all the marbles.
