Asante Samuel has never been shy regarding his feelings about longtime New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick.
Samuel, who played for the Patriots from 2003-07, helping the franchise capture two Super Bowl titles in that span, told Bryant McFadden of CBS Sports that Belichick is "absolutely not" the best coach in NFL history.
"Absolutely not," Samuel said. "Are you crazy?"
When asked why he believes Belichick isn't the greatest coach of all time, Samuel pointed to his record without seven-time Super Bowl champion Tom Brady.
"Well, look at his record without Tom. You got to win without Tom," Samuel said.
