If you include his time with the Browns he was 41-57 before Brady started a game. Jack Del Rio has coached three playoff teams with the likes of Byron leftwich, David Garrard, and Derek Carr at quarterback, by your reasoning you'd take Jack Del Rio over Tom Brady as well.

"The Browns" is an important part of that situation. 

And it's plain stupid to compare Belichick to Del Rio. Me taking Belichick over Brady isn't just based on his games won without Brady, more so, his track record as the greatest football mind in the history of football.

I thought that would have been obvious but I guess it still needs to be said about Bill after dominating an entire sport for the bones of two decades

Brady and Belichick dominated the sport for two decades. Without Brady Belichick would be little more than a few lines in the Patriots history.

And just by comparison, Chuck Noll is considered by many to be one of the greatest coaches ever, having won four Super Bowls in six years. But after Bradshaw retired the Steelers only made the playoffs in two out of next eight seasons. Players, not plays.
