If the Browns make the playoffs today, the Pats will have beaten every AFC playoff team, plus two from the NFC, during the season.
Going 16-0 against that kind of a schedule is a tremendous feat and probably won't ever be matched.
As compared to the 14-0 Dolphins who didn't face a winning team until the AFC playoffs? No comparison.

The days of "running up the score" are over for this season. Belicheck did what he set out to do in the NFL this year. He fielded an exceptional team and most importantly he raised the level of play in the NFL. You have to admit that the Pats' opponents aren't bringing the sorry arsed style of play now that they were bringing earlier. They're playing all out, partially because the games actually mean something now (the sorry part is they didn't then) and partially because they don't want to get their noses rubbed in it. BB coached them all into playing with pride.

THIS IS SO TRUE.
Best coach ever.
Period.
You can argue about best qb, running back, linebacker, ect. [not many arguements about wr].
But Bill B. will go down in history as the greatest football coach to ever step on the field. |

Bills winning percentage is among the elite and might possibly be the best! His post season winning percentage is the best in NFL history! He has won 3 Superbowls and is not done yet! Who is better???Who??? Lombardi???? Sorry...no! Chuck Knoll??? Please!!! Schula??? No!!! Landry??? Uh-uh!! Parcells??? Not on your life!!! They win the Superbowl this year to crown the undefeated season and you can put Bills name on the top of the list for all time with no question!!! Right now I still think he is the best and smartest coach in history!

its very difficult to say but their are many that are up there, and it is very difficult to say that one coach is better comparing from various decades.
What makes you say 100% that it is BB is the better question?
Lombardi would get my vote, but you can make an argument for others. If BB and the patriots win the superbowl he would have catapulted up there and if he wins one or two more with this team then you would have to give it to him and alot of other patriots as best in their position (but that is always argumentative).
Definetly top 5 coach of all-time, but to say he is the best ever is arrogance at its best. with that said I would take him as coach of my team anyday.

If the Pats do not win the superbowl it will be less of a feat than the Dolphins. |
