Most NFL observers would call Patriots coach Bill Belichick the greatest in NFL history. His six Super Bowls are a record, tied with league legends George Halas and Curly Lambeau for the most titles regardless of playoff format. If he can hang around long enough to win 31 more games, he'll pass Don Shula for most ever.
However, some contrarians argue against Belichick’s place in the football pantheon—including former defensive back Asante Samuel, who won two Super Bowls under Belichick in his five-year tenure with New England.
“Absolutely not,” Samuel said when asked by former defensive back Bryant McFadden whether Belichick was the greatest coach in NFL history in an interview posted by CBS on Tuesday morning.
