Are we looking at Brady vs Belichick all wrong?

I'm sure he'd have a fist full of rings. He very rarely if ever had that kind of defense backing him up. Or coaching tbh.

Or been woefully underpaid for his skill set like Brady was.  The Pats first Championship team was probably the least talented he was a part of, but after that they had tons of talent around him.  Once he married a billionaire, he was choosing to be underpaid so the Patriots could have an advantage on assembling quality teams.  What led to the separation between the two was the fact that his discount stopped being used to pay proven highly skilled players or sign top quality free agents, instead relying on draft picks that missed.
