Despite their current popularity issues, Patriots supporters are still more bullish about the quality of their team coach. 67% of Patriots Super Bowl supporters think Bill Belichick is the best coach, compared to Seahawks supporters, less than half of whom (47%) think Pete Carroll is the best leader out of the two.
