5. IMO the evidence is there in how each has fared since Brady left.

An example of an assistant coach who left the Pats...I give you Josh McDaniels. He got his first chance as a head coach from his resume of coaching Brady with the Pats and all their championships, with Denver.

He failed miserably there, but a couple of years later Marc Davis, owner of the Raiders foolishly hired him as head coach of the Raiders.

The Raiders were a playoff team in the previous ear (10-7) but his first season got off poorly. He scapegoated QB Derek Carr and bench him late in the season. Carr had gotten the team of to 10 point and more first half leads in 6 games only to have McDaniels' defense fail to stop the opposing team and the Raiders lost all of those games and finished at 6-11.

Now with this season they are off to a typical McDaniels record at 1-3 and things don't look good for the rest of the season.

I rest my case on Belichick and his asssistant coaches without Brady. Anybody can look good coaching Tom Brady.
