Don't even try to debate Tom Brady vs. Bill Belichick: Just enjoy their legacies as the greatest ever

Tom Brady played in his 14th conference championship game Sunday, and two weeks from now he'll play in his 10th Super Bowl. Bill Belichick, still stuck on 13 and 9, was watching from home Sunday and won't be coaching in Super Bowl LV. If you're among those inclined to take the Brady side in the Brady vs. Belichick debate, this qualifies as significant supporting evidence.

If you're inclined toward common sense, you realize it's not.

The debate, such as it is, seeks to determine which actor was most important it the staggering two-decade run of success the New England Patriots had while Brady was Belichick's quarterback.
