I hope we all realize how unique and special the combination of Brady and Belichick is and has been. They hold the record for wins by a coach and quarterback and that record extends every time they win.
I remember many times when they have come up against a hot team, an "unbeatable" team, a team that was undefeated and undefeatable, including in a Superbowl, and took that team apart. Not only did they beat those teams, they showed the rest of the league how to beat them. The Rams, the Steelers, the Broncos—all met their match in Brady and Belichick, and most of the other teams as well. It is the "Belichick Curse." He beats you and he shows others how to beat you as well.
