Question 1:
If you could choose to have the team of Tom Brady and Bill Belichick or Drew Bledsoe and Bill Parcells on your team who would you choose and why?
Question 2:
Which one of these duo's do you think has accomplished more and paved the way for the New England Patriots franchise?
If you don't mind, I'd appreciate it if you're a Patriot fan who is either a bandwagoner or wasn't watching football back in the day of Parcells and Bledsoe, please don't answer this with your obvious answer. I'm looking for old Patriots fans who have watched both to answer, to see a real opinion.
I think Bledsoe and Parcells have accomplished more for the Patriots, but I'd choose Brady and Belichick for my team. Better chemistry.

Brady & Belichick

I think Parcells is a great coach, but I think saying he did more for the Pats than Belichick is a huge reach. He did lay the ground work for a successful franchise, but that ground work was dismantled by Pete Carrol by the time Belichick got there. As for the comparison between Bledsoe and Brady, its a no contest. The records that Brady owns, or will own by the end of this season are staggering given his relatively short career. That team changed attitude the instant he took over and never looked back. Remember the 2001 Pats were 0-3 under Bledsoe and went 11-2 to finish the regular season under Brady. This current run of the Patriots has a good chance to go down as the greatest dynasty in the history of the NFL. I just don't know how you compare 1 Superbowl berth (and blow out) to what they're doing now. Raymond Berry did as much for the Pats as Parcells did, if you think about it.

Well, being that Belichick and Brady are directly involved with ALL the Patriots Super Bowl wins, I'd pick them...although Parcells is the second best coach we had, getting to the Super Bowl with Bledsoe...

Parcells did do a lot for the Patriots but I was never a Bledsoe fan.
You can't argue with what the Emperor and Brady have done.
