gomper Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 I hate the twice a year ass kicking we get at the hands pf the Pats but Belichick is great. How his team responded behind Cassell after Brady went down was incredible. He consistantly comes up with innovative, trend setting schemes that make the most of what he has on his roster. Great gameplanner and just as great a gameday coach who has terrific instincts for the feel of the game (casssel quick kick anyone?). It's no mistake that his gameplans for SB XXV and SB XXXVI are in the HOF. Is he pompous jerk? No Doubt Sore loser? You got it Get caught cheating? Think you know the answer Is he a great coach?

Ice Cold Bruschi Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 He's a really good coach but you give him way too much credit. He made his mark with the Giants but it was a team that already had a top 10 defense and maybe teh greatest defensive player on it already. His record before lucking into a Hall of Fame QB was a Jauron like 41-57. Again, he is a really good but so overrated and I won't put him in my top 10 NFL coaches list. Who is in your top 10? I assume you're talking all-time because he's easily #1 in the present nfl. Because I garauntee all of them had a hall of fame qb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because I garauntee all of them had a hall of fame qb. How is he "easily" #1? Last time i checked there were some pretty good coaches in the NFL .

Because I garauntee all of them had a hall of fame qb. In the current league I would say 1) Belichick 2) Fisher 3) Coughlin 4) Tomlin 5) Reid A Hall of Fame QB certainly helps, but I can think of a few HOF coaches without HOF QBs: Joe Gibbs Bud Grant John Madden George Halas George Allen Dick Vermeil (Warner has a chance though...)

/dev/null Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 Is Belichek's Brain like Terrell's Toe? Or Holcomb's Arm? Or Kelso's Helmet? Or Tommy John's Elbow? Or Achiles Tendon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gibbs had Theisman, HOF'er. Dick Vermiel isn't in the hall and probably won't make it (I think he should) Bud Grant had Fran Tarkenton, HOF'er, George Halas had Sid Luckman, HOF'er, John Madden had the Snake who should be in the HOF but inexplicably isn't. And George Allen never won anything. Almost a total fail on your part, plus only gibbs and halas would even come close to the top 10 coaches all time.

Who in the current nfl would even have an argument now that shanahan and dungy are no longer in the league? and he was head and shoulders above them as well.
