Over the years, several of Bill Belichick assistant coaches have gotten opportunities to be a head coach after being a part of his dynasty teams.
Yet, several of those assistants have famously failed as head coaches. First-year Raiders’ head coach Josh McDaniels was one of those in his first stint, as the Denver Broncos head coach spanning 28 games in 2009-10.
