He wanted more control at the Titans and the Pats are trying to give their next head coach a lot less control than what Belichick enjoyed. But as you watch around the league player drama, front office drama & ownership drama the Bengals never have any.
There were no other candidates. Mayo had a clause entered in his contract last season that he would be the HC in waiting. Belichick fully endorsed it.
