Are the Giants having one this preseason? Seems like it's the thing to do now since it's closer to live action and you can work on stuff that you may not be able to get to in the pre-season games.
Has Mac/Reece's stated a position on holding joint practices with other teams during the pre-season? Obviously they have to be scheduled well in advance. Sorry if this was discussed and I missed it.
If Belichick is doing it, there's a good reason and without knowing anything else I feel like others teams should do it too.
He's got that much on everyone else, I need no further explanation.

He's not the only coach that holds joint practices and never has been.

Thanks. Did I say he was?
All teams used to do them. Over a long period of time. Decades. Some still do.

You don't get it because no one said i he's a super genius because of it.
Under the current CBA practice time is limited, Belichick determined that he could better prepare his players by giving them as much exposure to other teams or more than their teammates who they'll practice against on a daily basis.
I like it and I think it makes sense.
So Belichick is a genius (period) and still holds joint practices, as often as he can, not because of it.
I believe other coaches should too.
Hopefully that explains it for you and prevents you from jumping to strange conclusions that were never written.
He's probably making Manchurian Candidates out of the opposing coaches and players.
But this indicates that you think he's a step above because he holds joint practices: He's got that much on everyone else, I need no further explanation.
He's a great coach. No denying that. My point is that there's really nothing special, imo, about scrimmaging other teams in your practices.

Are you being intentionally obtuse?
I don't think he's a "step above because he holds joint practices"
I think he's a step above the other coaches in the league (at least one). I think his methods, his approach, his game preparation, his adjustments are just better than anyone else in the game today, maybe ever. Period. Hard stop. Let all the thoughts leave your brain (shouldn't take long).
AND
during training camp he holds joint practices and seems to feel like it better prepares his team.
therefore it is my opinion other coaches should also hold joint practices (as many as possible).
I do not think he's a step above anyone because he holds joint practices.
This is complex, if you don't get it that's ok.
Kinda surprised we wouldn't have had one with a team like Pitts, especially since the two organizations have the family relationship and share the same sense of professionalism.

You said "I feel like other teams should do it too." They do. Sorry for misreading you, but why would you phrase it as if you thought this was a unique thing?
He didn't get specific, but I interpreted it as it's probably Packers-or-bust for now. The Giants haven't played an NFC team in the preseason since I've been covering the team, so I wouldn't count on it.
