I hate New England with a seething vitriol but their coaching is the best in the league. The Bengals have so much to learn about play in the trenches especially on the offensive side of the ball.
Belichick is a wizard at taking what he's got and working it to max advantage. He takes away what you do best and exploits the smallest weakness.
A lot of coaches are determined to do their plan and only take slight considerations as to what their players can do well. He can shift on the fly without a speed bump at all.
Many coaches will not switch up their plan. After all it's their plan so it has to be good.
And that's their downfall. Unwilling to change, unwilling to admit it's not working. See Russell Bodine as one example.
