I am guessing it was when bb was in Cleveland Title: Re: Just for fun trivia question Post by: Spider-Dan on July 29, 2018, 03:17:05 pm Actually, Hoodie, that's a great point! The OP is wrong. There are TWO Miami Dolphins head coaches who are undefeated against Bill Belichick.
Jim Bates is 1-0 against Bill Belichick: NE 28 @ MIA 29, 12/20/04 Don Shula is 2-0 against Bill Belichick: MIA 27 @ CLE 23, 9/14/92 MIA 24 @ CLE 14, 10/10/93 Title: Re: Just for fun trivia question Post by: MyGodWearsAHoodie on July 29, 2018, 05:04:48 pm ROTFLOL
Title: Re: Just for fun trivia question Post by: BigDaddyFin on July 30, 2018, 01:03:10 pm Oddly enough,
Don Shula is also undefeated against Jimmy Johnson. The twin Hail Mary's in 1989 The Snow Bowl on Thanksgiving 1993 Title: Re: Just for fun trivia question Post by: MyGodWearsAHoodie on July 30, 2018, 01:51:34 pm Make that threeish........
Jimmy Johnson, a former Dolphins head coach, is 1-0 vs Belichick. Granted JJ was head coach of Dallas for that game. Title: Re: Just for fun trivia question Post by: Phishfan on July 30, 2018, 03:52:43 pm Make that threeish........ Jimmy Johnson, a former Dolphins head coach, is 1-0 vs Belichick. Granted JJ was head coach of Dallas for that game. Not even close to threeish. If Johnson never lost to him while at Miami for some reason then you could go there. Title: Re: Just for fun trivia question Post by: MyGodWearsAHoodie on July 30, 2018, 06:31:39 pm Not even close to threeish. If Johnson never lost to him while at Miami for some reason then you could go there. JJ never lost to BB while at Miami! Granted he never won either, they didn't meet. But JJ 1) was a Miami head coach and 2) has a non-zero undefeated record vs BB. Title: Re: Just for fun trivia question Post by: dolphins4life on July 30, 2018, 06:39:10 pm I should have made it clear who is the only Dolphins coach with an undefeated record against Bill Belichick as coach of the Patriots.
In that case, it would be Jim Bates. Title: Re: Just for fun trivia question Post by: dolphins4life on July 30, 2018, 06:40:47 pm JJ never lost to BB while at Miami! Granted he never won either, they didn't meet. But JJ 1) was a Miami head coach and 2) has a non-zero undefeated record vs BB. Bill Belichick's first year at New England was Wannestedt's first year at Miami, 2000. Miami swept NE that year. Wannestedt's career record against Belichick was 4-5. Title: Re: Just for fun trivia question Post by: MyGodWearsAHoodie on July 30, 2018, 06:53:20 pm Bill Belichick's first year at New England was Wannestedt's first year at Miami, 2000. Miami swept NE that year. Wannestedt's career record against Belichick was 4-5. I am not sure how that is relevant to anything. There are three Miami head coaches with a career record of X-0 vs BB. DS, JB and JJ. Title: Re: Just for fun trivia question Post by: Phishfan on July 30, 2018, 07:39:58 pm JJ never lost to BB while at Miami! Granted he never won either, they didn't meet. But JJ 1) was a Miami head coach and 2) has a non-zero undefeated record vs BB. I forgot they didn't match up. I could have sworn BB was there longer, it sure feels like it. Title: Re: Just for fun trivia question Post by: MyGodWearsAHoodie on July 30, 2018, 08:10:43 pm I forgot they didn't match up. I could have sworn BB was there longer, it sure feels like it. JJ coached Dal 89-93; BB coached Cle 91-95. In 1991, in his very first game as a head coach of the Browns (BB) lost to Dallas (JJ). 92 & 93 CLE and Dal didn't meet (diff conf) JJ coached MIA from 96-99, but BB wasn't a head coach. Title: Re: Just for fun trivia question Post by: Spider-Dan on July 30, 2018, 08:19:19 pm Not even close to threeish. If Johnson never lost to him while at Miami for some reason then you could go there. I'd say by the letter of the original statement, it's three.Jimmy Johnson is 1-0 against Bill Belichick. Jimmy Johnson is a former Miami Dolphins coach. Therefore, Jimmy Johnson is a Miami Dolphins coach with an undefeated record against Bill Belichick.

Title: Re: Just for fun trivia question Post by: MyGodWearsAHoodie on July 30, 2018, 08:36:50 pm I got it and acknowledged it but thanks for beating it in guys. Nothing against you. But it is fucking hilarious that the person who posted the trivia question got it wrong by a factor of 3. Title: Re: Just for fun trivia question Post by: dolphins4life on July 30, 2018, 11:44:52 pm That's because I posted it wrong.
The question I meant to ask was, which Miami Dolphins coach is the only coach with an undefeated record against Belichick during his tenure with the Patriots?
