o.k. Its a no brainer as to whom is the best coach of all time for the Patriots,Its our current beloved Bill Belichick.
However from there goes the discussion of who fits as second and third best coach ever to be the HC here
You can argue Bill Parcells was second best coach and yes,he did turn around a sad franchise,with Kraft's help of course...but
I think Raymond Berry should be considered 2nd best of all - He took a team as bad in early 80s and with a shaky QB and took them to the Super Bowl after the team stuggled immensely under Ehrhardt.
So if you ask me the top 3 head coaches ever to coach the Patriots in order..
1) Bill Belichick
2) Raymond Berry
3) Bill Parcells
If you are under 35 you probably don't remember much of Berry's leadership on that 80s team which was very well respected.
Also note that even though Parcells is a HOF coach does not put him 2nd best overall,IMO - After all he was only 32-32 in his tenure here while Berry was 48-39 -Thats 9 games over .500
