Bill Belichick may have had happier moments in his life, but his reaction to winning Super Bowl LIII is about as elated as Patriots fans will ever see him as head coach.
Tuesday night’s season finale of Inside The NFL showcased all the best mic’d up moments from the Patriots’ 13-3 win over the Los Angeles Rams. But one of the standout moments of the show is Belichick’s pure, unfiltered joy after the final kneeldown secured his sixth Super Bowl win as Pats head coach.
Belichick seems at a loss for words, managing only to shout variations of “We’re champions!” to his players and fellow coaches as he celebrates. He and defensive signal-caller Brian Flores delivered a defensive masterclass in shutting down Sean McVay’s high-powered Rams offense from start to finish. So he had reason to be satisfied after this one.
