As a matter of FACT, Brady has made Belichick...
Belichick without Brady:
7 seasons, 51-62 regular season record, 0 division titles, 1 postseason (1-1 record), 0 Super Bowl championships
Belichick with Brady:
10 seasons, 124-35 regular season record, 9 division titles, 9 postseasons (16-6 record), 6 AFCCG appearances, 5 Super Bowl appearances, 3 Super Bowl championships
The disparity is plainly obvious.
Taking a closer look, Belichick began his tenure in New England with a 5-13 record. After Brady became the starting QB, the team went on a 14-3 run that culminated with their first Super Bowl championship. In total of course they would go on to win 3 of 4 Super Bowls. It's not just a coincidence that Belichick became a winner immediately after Brady became his starting QB.
The first year in NE he essentially blew up the team, he had to get his system in place. Look at 2008, they still went 11-5. That's not 16-0 like it was the year before, but it is better than the 10-6 that we had the next year. In Cleveland he didn't have much to work with. Quick quiz, who was the last HC to win a playoff game for the Browns? Our friend BB.
