Who is the better coach Vrabel or Belichick?

  • Belichick

  • Vrabel


Results are only viewable after voting.
I don't think that really qualifies as Vrabel outsmarting BB. It's not like BB was caught off guard. He himself found the loophole in the rule. Vrabel's team was just winning so they got to use it. That wasn't about BB being outsmarted. Maybe he was out-gameplanned (tbh I don't remember specifics of that game).
What was dumb was Belichick using that in a blowout. Should have saved it. Sort of like the Chiefs using their trick this year in a game that didn’t need it
 
Coach of the year will be between Vrabel and the Colts HC. Whoever finishes with the better record will get the award. Pats/Vrabel have the edge.
 
Belichick was a great coach, Vrabel is a better coach.
 
So, BB, or BB clone?

Vrabel is very different than Belichick. Belichick's focus was on individuals performing their jobs, Vrabel's s on performing as a team. Vrabel relates to players as individuals, Belichick sees them as disposable parts.
 
Belichick's greatest strengths were strategic and tactical. He gameplanned better than any coach in history, and had a quarterback who could implement those gameplans in ways that benefitted both the offense and defense, and the overall game plan. Belichick was the greatest coach in history in this regard. When you had to win that one game there was no one better. Whether it was the game plans against the Rams or Seahawks in the Super Bowl, it the many Manning games, Belichick's game plans were as good as it gets.
 
Bwaaahahahaha some hater really trying to say Bill focused more on individual than the team.

Lol one of Bill's first and most repeated quotes "T-E-A-M as in team" he is without a doubt known for team being important.

For anyone to even suggest otherwise completely exposes there bias and there grudge against Bill.

What are we getting at here? This feels like a sandbox.
 
Just glad we got them both at the right time.
 
By the way, the question posed is: " Who is the better coach?" It's not " Who has had a better coaching career?" In which case the answer would be obvious, Belichick has had a better career. The question is about who is the better coach right now, as it was asked in the present tense. The answer to who is a better coach right now is Mike Vrabel, and that is abundantly clear. Bill Belichick is failing in college, and Mike Vrabel is the best coach in professional football this season.
 
I voted for Vrabel because it will upset most people here
 
What has reached higher levels this boards hatred of all things Bill or Maust's self righteous board policing?

I would say that what has reached the highest level is your self indulgent narcissism and fan boy faux outrage at hundreds and hundreds of people who believe Belichick is the GOAT but a flawed coach who is currently failing. In short the vast majority of people here think you are a complete ******* who simply will not STFU.
 


No faux outrage. The outrage is real. I can't believe hundreds of Patriots fans would openly admit they hate Belichick.

And Suckleberry, sb1, hoc, and XLIX are the leading haters. And thus I don't even consider you a Patriots fan. Patriots haters.
