You are the coach of the year. No it’s you. No it’s you !

Even though he lost on Monday, Kliff Kingsbury is part of the race for Coach of the Year.

But if it were up to him, he wouldn’t get his hands on the trophy. For the coach of the Cardinals, there is only one coach of the year. All the time.

“They should just name the award Bill Belichick, and when he retires leave it like that,” Kingsbury explained to his team’s official website. “Until retirement, I don’t believe anyone else should receive this award. He should have it every year he is in office. “

Made aware of this statement, Belichick responded with further compliments.

“It’s nice of Kliff to throw flowers at me.” So I’m going to throw it at him too. Kliff has done a great job and he should be Coach of the Year this year, ”Belichick told WEEI on Monday.

Drafted by the Patriots in 2003, Kliff Kingsbury only briefly rubbed shoulders with Bill Belichick. Hit in the arm, the then quarterback had spent the year on the injured list. He had been cut before the following season. Obviously, he does not want too much with his former boss.
