Bill Belichick Shares Controversial Views on Brady, Mahomes in New Book

In his new book, 'The Art of Winning,' Bill Belichick addresses the ongoing debate over the greatest NFL quarterback by stating both Tom Brady and Patrick Mahomes are 'really good,' sidestepping a definitive answer and drawing attention for his balanced view. Belichick highlights the similarities between Brady and Mahomes, especially their humility and relentless pursuit of improvement, noting that both focus on team success and personal growth rather than just statistics. He recounts how Mahomes, after a close win, publicly emphasized his own missed opportunities, a mindset Belichick finds reminiscent of Brady's attitude during his Patriots tenure. Belichick also suggests that as long as Mahomes maintains this approach, the Chiefs will remain a dominant force in the NFL. The coach further notes that Chiefs head coach Andy Reid might one day claim Mahomes as the greatest quarterback, just as Belichick’s own legacy is tied to Brady. This perspective has sparked discussion among fans and analysts, especially given Belichick's long-standing partnership with Brady and his admiration for Mahomes' leadership qualities.
