Curious about how Bill Belichick runs a team, a meeting room, or even an offense? For a special football preview podcast, we had a fascinating conversation with Brian Hoyer, who spent 15 years in the NFL as a QB, including eight seasons in New England with the new Tar Heel head coach. Hoyer joined former UNC safety Matt Merletti and Joey Powell to discuss Belichick from every angle. This conversation offers a deep dive into the mind of one of the best football coaches of all time. Grab a beverage and listen as Hoyer describes what it’s truly like to be a part of the Belichick machine.
