New slogan just dropped: Ready, Fire, Aim.

Bill Belichick joined Peyton and Eli Manning on the ManningCast during the Jets/Bills MNF broadcast and let his feelings be known regarding the Jets and the firing of Robert Saleh: “I’m not a big Jets fan, in case you don’t know that. I like Fireman Ed, but that’s it. Coach Saleh did a good job with that program. He brought in a culture, a level of toughness and competitiveness. … I thought Coach Saleh really did a good job with this team and they’re probably not that far from winning.”

“That’s kind of what it’s been there with the Jets,” Belichick said. “They’ve barely won over 30 percent in the last 10 years. The owner being the owner, just ready, fire, aim.”

Ready, fire, aim baby. Bill Belichick the coach wasn't known for giving the media these great quotes (except for we're on to Cincinnati, I guess), in fact he wasn't known for giving the media anything at all. Meeting with the media looked like his personal hell. Now being a member of it, I much prefer this Bill Belichick. Keep the soundbites coming.
