The family thing is almost always a dodge. So this means as of right now, Hoody the Smaller thinks he is the heir apparent.
That's exactly it. This is all the talk this morn on the NFL Network.

Giving Josh McDaniels more money wasn't going to keep him in New England.

Certainly, 'a hand shake offer'. that he'll eventually replace Bill Belichick, would do the trick, and that coupled with satisfying his Wife's and Childrens desires to not make another move was 'the one' that led to ' ** that two'.

** That two:

Again ... being the HC of an organization that he's in all likelihood now permanently married to; as what other NFL Team now will seriously offer him a HC Position?
