The Patriots face the Philadelphia Eagles in Minneapolis Sunday at 6:30 p.m. EST on NBC.
Tom Coughlin is currently the oldest coach to win a Super Bowl. He was 65 when his New York Giants beat the Pats in 2012. He was four months younger than Belichick is now.
Belichick, the greatest NFL coach of all time, became the second-oldest coach to win a title when the Pats beat the Atlanta Falcons 34-28 last year.
Dick Vermeil is the next-oldest coach to win a Super Bowl, when the St. Louis Rams beat the Tennessee Titans 23-16. He was 63 at the time.
Belichick already holds the record for most Super Bowl wins by a head coach; he has five. The record was previously held by Pittsburgh Steelers coach Chuck Noll.
