The New England Patriots have been apart of the NFL since the year 1970. Yet for thirty years from 1970-2000 the Patriots only made two Super Bowl appearances. Their success started at the start of the 21stcentury when Bill Belichick took over in New England.
It was the start of a new era, the start of the dynasty, and the start of what would become one of the best franchises in the National Football League.
In the past thirteen seasons, the New England Patriots have been the most successful football team. Under Belichick, the Patriots won three Super Bowls in four years and had twelve years in a row where they finished with a winning record.
Coach Belichick also led his team to a perfect 16-0 season in 2007. With such amounted success I figured I would create the New England Patriots All Belichick Team. This team is comprised of the best and most worthy players during the Belichick era in New England.
