NFL Films reportedly isn’t pleased with how the New England Patriots depicted now-former head coach Bill Belichick in “The Dynasty” on Apple TV+.
The docuseries relives the Patriots’ historic two-decade run of dominance from 2001 to 2019, highlighted by six Super Bowl championships and nine AFC title banners.
Despite constructing the greatest dynasty in NFL history, there has been plenty of criticism and shade thrown at Belichick throughout the series, with Brady himself admitting that he left New England in 2020 because of their deteriorating relationship.
According to a report from Ben Volin of The Boston Globe, NFL Films was unhappy with the way Belichick was portrayed in the series. As such, they decided not to work alongside director Matthew Hamachek:
“While NFL Films is thanked in the credits of “The Dynasty,” an NFL Films source said the organization was not pleased with the depiction of Bill Belichick in the series and opted to distance itself from director Matthew Hamachek’s project.”
