Is Bill Belichick the greatest NFL head coach of All-Time?

I was in a debate yesterday win a man at the car dealership. We were both getting our oil changed and they were showing an old Packers highlight with Vince Lombardi on the screen. The man looked at me and said he was the greatest football coach of All-Time but he lost his ranks to Bill Belichick. At first, I had to take a second because I am a die hard Bills fan, and it made me mad. So I went home and began to dig up stats, and he might have a valid point.
