Is this guy kidding?
COACHES
Patriots coach Bill Belichick has his scheme, the shifting 3-4 alignment, which has given Peyton Manning fits in past seasons, especially the playoffs. Colts coach Tony Dungy has one of the league’s most prolific offenses with Manning putting up league-best numbers. Dungy’s speed-emphasis defense has been suspect over the years, but it usually makes just enough stops to allow Manning and his offense to find ways to win. Belichick is considered a master strategist, but he’s lost several assistant coaches to head coaching jobs in recent years, most notably Charlie Weis to Notre Dame, Romeo Crennel to Cleveland and Eric Mangini to the New York Jets. Dungy has one of the league’s most-respected veteran assistants in offensive coordinator Tom Moore. Belichick’s system is more proven – remember, he used to be Bill Parcells’ defensive coordinator for the New York Giants – but Dungy has a more experienced supporting cast.
Edge: Even.
