Bill Belichick’s future is rightly the most hotly debated topic in the NFL right now. After seeing remarkable success and 6 Super Bowl wins, the dynasty is now in shambles. And Belichick, being the General Manager as well as Head Coach of the New England Patriots, has a part to play in all of this. The team is 2-7 right now, going into week 10 of the regular season. With an international game up ahead in Germany, will he embarrass himself in front of his German audience?

But Belichick has a resume that is almost unparalleled in NFL history, and he deserves one more chance to prove himself. While there have been talks of letting him go, if he loses the game against the Indianapolis Colts, the ownership will be making a big mistake if it cuts Belichick loose.

Bill Belichick is easily one of the greatest coaches in football

The 71-year-old has a coaching career that spans 48 years. 24 of those, Bill Belichick has been Head Coach of the Patriots. In terms of overall wins, he stands second at 331. 17 games from overtaking Don Shula as the coach with the most number of wins. But while Don Shula has just 2 Super Bowl wins, Belichick towers above him at 6. Under him, the Pats also won 17 AFC East Championships.

Belichick’s defense is the stuff of legends. He’s known for being a strict disciplinarian with a strong eye for coaching great defenses. Their defense has finished in the top 10 scoring defense of that season 18 times since 2001, and every year since 2012. He also has won the title of “Coach of the Year” thrice, just one below Don Shula.

In 2007, the Patriots scripted franchise history when they were undefeated through 16 games of the season, before falling just short of perfection at Super Bowl LXII when they lost to the New York Giants. With as stunning a resume as this, he had also helped create and mold players who went on to work their magic in other teams after moving on from the Pats.

Three players who owe their success to Belichick’s Midas touch

5x SB MVP Tom Brady was the 199th overall pick in the NFL Draft of 2000. But under Belichick, he went on to record 61,582 passing yards, 456 TDs (both fourth-most in NFL history), and 5 Super Bowl wins. The “Brady or Belichick” debate has taken on a life of its own now, especially after Brady went on to win the SB with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Belichick has not managed to win an SB without Brady. But on his podcast, Let’s Go, the GOAT himself said that he wouldn’t have played like he did without Bill.
