Winning a Super Bowl is practically every NFL player's ultimate dream. The head coaches are not exempt from this. It's a similarly difficult achievement.

A Super Bowl victory is a feat to be proud of. It denotes that the coach successfully guided a team of players through a challenging season, coming out on top. But winning many Super Bowls reveals a manager's superior skill.

Bill Belichick, the manager of the New England Patriots since the 2000 NFL campaign, is currently the longest-tenured head coach in the league. Among active coaches, Belichick has the most victories.

Belichick, who has won six Super Bowls in his career, is the most successful NFL head coach in history. In addition, Belichick has nine Super Bowl appearances in total.

The Patriots have won Super Bowls in 2002, 2004, 2005, 2015, 2017 and 2019 under Belichick's direction. He also led the club to Super Bowls in 2007, 2011 and 2017, all of which they lost.

When the New England Patriots defeated the New York Jets in Week 8 of last season, Belichick broke a tie with Chicago Bears icon George Halas for second place on the all-time NFL manager's victory record.


Top 10 coaches to have won the most championships

With their victory over the Los Angeles Rams in Super Bowl LIII in 2019, the New England Patriots and Bill Belichick earned their sixth crown. The Patriots have won as many Super Bowls as the Pittsburgh Steelers, but with the victory, Belichick became the first NFL coach to capture six titles. With his Super Bowl victory, Belichick surpassed Vince Lombardi and George Halas, who all had five championships.

Below is a list of all the head coaches who have at least three NFL/AFL titles to their credit:

1. Bill Belichick: 6

2. George Halas: 5

3. Vince Lombardi: 5

4. Chuck Noll: 4

5. Don Shula: 3

6. Curly Lambeau: 3

7. Paul Brown: 3

8. Weeb Eubank: 3

9. Hank Stram: 3

10. Bill Walsh: 3

11. Joe Gibbs: 3

In addition to having the most Super Bowl victories, Bill Belichick is the only head coach to have won eight championship rings. While serving as the New York Giants' defensive coordinator in 1987 and 1991, he won two rings.

Belichick is without a doubt one of the greatest coaches in NFL history. He still has a fantastic chance to break numerous NFL records over the next few years.
