Bill Belichick has reached another milestone in his storied career, and he did it against the team that started him as head coach.
"in good players," Belichick said Sunday when asked about the accomplishment at his postgame news conference. A lot of those guys have had tremendous careers. And the players, a lot of them, are in the Patriots Hall of Fame, in the NFL Hall of Fame or will be.
Winning games in this league are about players; I've been lucky to have many of them. I had them in New York. In Cleveland. I had them here.
It's a natural reaction for Belichick to give in to his players, and he's coached plenty of future and current Hall of Famers. Still, that humility can't hide the genius behind Belichick's near-unprecedented streak of success.
In 27 years as head coach, Belichick has 20 double-digit winning seasons, and his 31 postseason wins en route to six Super Bowl wins already rank first in league history.
