Bill Belichick has widely been regarded as the top mind in the National Football League since he took the New England Patriots out of mediocrity and led them to become a full fledged dynasty. However one thing has always confused me about Belichick. Typically head coaches find similar success during their tenures with different franchises with the exception being those that choose to coach franchises such as the Arizona Cardinals (Dennis Green) and Detroit Lions (Steve Mariucci) who haven't won a championship in 110+ combined seasons.

Tom Coughlin, .531 winning percentage with Jacksonville Jaguars, .547 winning percentage with New York Giants, Differential of .016   Tony Dungy, .563 winning percentage with Tampa Bay Buccaneers, .760 winning percentage with Indianapolis Colts, Differential of .197 Herman Edwards, .488 winning percentage with New York Jets, .406 winning percentage with Kansas City Chiefs, Differential of .082 Jon Gruden, .594 winning percentage with Oakland Raiders, .500 winning percentage with Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Differential of .094 Mike Holmgren, .670 winning percentage with Green Bay Packers, .569 winning percentage with Seattle Seahawks, Differential of .101 Dick Jauron, .438 winning percentage with Chicago Bears, .438 winning percentage with Buffalo Bills, Differential of .000 Bill Belichick, .450 winning percentage with Cleveland Browns, .711 winning percentage with New England Patriots, DIFFERENTIAL OF .261 Wade Phillips and Norv Turner are not include...
