What's he at now, 11 winning seasons in a row, 5 Super Bowls etc? Clearly it was all Bill B.

Belichick built an elite defense in both Cleveland and in New England, and would have built a winner if not for the massive distractions in his last year as coach. In New England, the team early on wasn't just Brady. It was an outstanding team throughout.
In Belichick's years, he played a much more active role than most coaches in personnel and even coordinating decisions. Most importantly, he's one of the few coaches with the smarts to adjust his game even if that means scrapping old philosophies. Let's also not forget that he won 11 games with Matt ****ing Cassel as his QB.
This is absurd that people will discredit him but CP is "Overreaction Planet" sometimes. I hate him, the Patriots, and the Patriot Way. But he is one hell of a coach and easily one of the best of all time. And I assure you that when Brady retires, as long as Belichick gets a good QB (doesn't have to be Brady-esque), his team will still be a winner.
