Invoice Belichick will doubtless go down as the most effective coaches in NFL historical past, if not the most effective.
Belichick has been credited with serving to develop and develop Tom Brady and turning the New England Patriots into a real dynasty.
He’s not with the Patriots and presently doesn’t have a training gig, however he mentored and taught so many all through his profession.
The Belichick “Coaching Tree,” as some prefer to name it, has many branches.
Lots of his former assistants and coordinators have gone on to just accept job promotions within the teaching sector, taking what they discovered from him and making use of it to their very own groups.
One such instance of that is Patrick Graham, the Las Vegas Raiders’ defensive coordinator.
Graham just lately sat down with Maxx Crosby, becoming a member of him for his podcast to speak about the most effective lesson he obtained from the legendary coach.
“He was a great listener. I realized I had to do a better job listening,” Graham exclaimed.

Graham did point out that Belichick taught him lots in regards to the sport of soccer, and what it means to be a head coach.
Regardless of the entire technical elements he discovered, Graham’s largest takeaway was to be a greater listener.
Whether or not it’s to his gamers, fellow coaches, or different individuals in his life, listening has confirmed to be an impactful talent for Graham.
It appeared to work for Belichick, and if extra coaches can undertake this philosophy, their affect on the sport will likely be that a lot stronger.
