Coaches are the difference, and Les I would also compare Bellichick to Martz, although Martz ended up having a meltdown, he did get the best of his playes every time, if they bought into what he was selling, if players don't buy in, you could be Lombardi but wouldn't be able to get a good performance out of your players.
Martz had Warner, Bruce, Holt, Faulk, Pace, and Timmerman.
I don;t think anyone would back the argument that no one else would have gotten good things out of those players.
Remember the head coach in 99 was Vermeil. He got a superbowl out of those players. When instead in 98 it was Banks, Henley, Kennison, Gandy, and Wiegert, he went 4-12.
Though arguably 4-12 is good with that line up.
