Belichick Notches Win 300, May Coach Into His 70s: Bill Belichick said a decade ago he didn't plan to coach into his 70s. Now he's 67 and just won his 300th game, putting him 47 behind Don Shula's all-time record, and is having a rethink. "When I said it, maybe I didn't know what 70 felt like," he said on his weekly WEEI radio show. "So I'm not really sure if that's an accurate statement today or not. At the time, I didn't feel that way. Now that I'm closer to that age, I don't know."
"When I said it, maybe I didn't know what 70 felt like."
Hey, Bill, 70 wasn't too bad, but when you add a few more years to it, it's not so great. I can give you a few tips on how to survive it.

The Hoodie only needs 47 wins to match Shula, seems like a number he could reach around his 70th birthday. Andy Reid is a distant second among active coaches at 212, at 61 already I don't see him reaching much past 300 unless Mahomes turns into the next TB12, and no other active coach is even at 150.
