It also could mean fewer wins due to less big plays and more inferior talent on the field. I like coaches that are loyal to winning, not tenure.
I'm sure Belichick isn't handing jobs to vets over talented rookies.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
