Belichick is a great organizational leader and a great DC.  I don't know how involved he gets on the offensive side of the ball but I get the sense he tries to have good people on that side so he doesn't have to worry about it too much.

I don't know man. I kind of get a John Lennon and Yoko Ono vibe from those two. The real talent left and died in 1980. Brady wrote the hits. Belichick was just kind of there.

9 years out of 10 they have a great defense.  Little to nothing ever getting out to the media from their locker room is not a Brady exerting his will and greatness on the organization type of thing, that comes from the organizational head.  Freddy T talking about the organizational differences between here and there and putting theirs on a pedestal any time he's asked about it is not a result of a directive from Brady, that's a head coach type of thing.  Are they going to 9 super bowls without Brady or someone of that caliber?  Probably not, but they would have probably been to a few with even adequate QB play and their defense which was usually one of the best in the league.
