Bill is not a very good head coach, and is not able to teach others how to do it. Bill got very lucky to find Tom Brady, and had great success with him. But both before and after Brady, it becomes clear that Tom was why they won those games much more than Bill.

Impressively this is one of the stupidest things I've ever read on this subreddit lol
Brady’s first 3 rings were because of the defense. He was a game manager.
In the losses to the Giants Belichick’s defense allowed under 20 points and Brady could only score 14.
Against the Seahawks Brady was incredible yet Belichick’s defense won the game with the Malcolm Butler INT.
Against the Falcons Belichick’s defense allowed 0 points in the second half which is the only reason Brady’s comeback was possible.
I’ll give you the 2017 Eagles Super Bowl, Brady carried them in that game and Bill’s defense was terrible. Got cooked by Nick Foles.
And finally, the 2019 Rams Super Bowl where Belichick’s defense allowed 3 points against the best offense in the league so Brady won a ring while scoring only 13 points…
I’m not trying to discredit anyone here like you. Both Brady and Belichick had a major part in their success. It was a team effort between them.
God these comments are so fucking braindead
I knew football fans were stupid, but this is just reaching unfathomable levels of stupidity.
QB is an extremely important position, and Brady was extremely valuable. Bill Belichick is an extremely good defensive coach who was ahead of the game for a lot of years with regards to team structure and personnel philosophy.
Almost every single great QB got their Super Bowl wins in the years their defenses peaked. Aaron Rodgers, Russell Wilson, Peyton Manning, Drew Brees, Ben Roethlisberger, even guys like Stafford and Eli Manning. Seriously, look into it -- literally every single one won when they had the best defense of their career, because it takes both sides of the ball. (INCLUDING THE GIANTS TWICE WHEN BELICHICK WAS THEIR D-COORD).
Brady and Belichick won tons of them because Brady made the offense good and Belichick made the defense good, as well as being a good gameplanner, in-game decision maker, attention to detail, and getting a lot out of players that didn't have the highest natural talent.
There is really no need to make it more complicated than that. Belichick does not seem to have an edge over the competition in GM decisions anymore. And he's always been a defensive coach. So their team sucking because the offense sucks means Belichick is not a great offensive coach which is not new information, he is a defensive Goat.
god how the fuck did you actually just type that?
who is a good coach to you?
very telling that every comment disagreeing w OP has to come with some personal insult lol
meanwhile 11+ seasons of evidence say that without the goat qb he'd be like every other coach
