Jeff Hostetler once beaned Bill Belichick
“My rookie year, I am a rookie quarterback with three other veterans on the roster,” Hostetler told the Three Guys Before The Game podcast on Monday. “I’ve got Bill Parcells as a head coach, who did not want to draft me, and so I wasn’t one of his guys. I had Ron Erhardt as a quarterback coach, who had been in the league forever. His offense is still being run by [the] Patriots, by the Steelers. It’s probably the best offense that I’ve ever been involved with as far as being consistent, verbiage, all those things. And so I’m involved with all these guys that are all veterans, and I’m thinking, ‘This is a tough situation for me to come into.’ And so I’m scared, basically. I’m thinking, ‘If I make a mistake these guys aren’t going to have any patience with me...’ read more |

You have a problem with a back-up beaning a coach in practice?

Who do you think was the better QB, Hostetler or Collins?

Collins was the better QB, but Hoss was pretty good too. He had the ability to extend plays and helped us win that second Super Bowl so I might be a bit biased towards him.

Hoss was more a game manager, Collins could get into a QB dual with any QB in the NFL, don't think Hoss could.

Parcells used him that way. But at the time all Bill wanted to do was get on top and run out the clock.
Not an easy thing to do for a QB - only throwing on 3rd downs when everyone knows you have to.

Bill had the D to hold the lead back then so it's understandable that he would get all conservative once they got the lead. Didn't always agree with it as I always believe you should play the game as if it's 0-0 & stay aggressive all 4 qts till the clock reads 00:00. Hated that about TC as well. NE always attacks no matter if they're leading 30-3 or leading just 17-13., that's why they hardly ever blow a lead late in the game, they're usually up by 10+ late in the game, Hard to recall the last time the Giants went into the 2 min warning up 10. I'm hoping the new HC is more aggressive with a lead & doesn't go into a shell up 7 with 10 min left in the game.
