What about Rich Kotite? And especially Rick Venturi, he was something like 3-50 combined in college and the pros as a head coach

I'd have to add Bud Grant to any top-5 coaches list. He went to 4-5 Super Bowls, a dozen or more conference championships, and spent more time in the play-offs than anyone else I can think of - all in an NFL career that lasted less than 20 years!! Then, to show his heart, he came back a few years later to cover for a fired coach.

He was a stud!

Don't encourage him. Although it's rare to see a troll on this site, they do ooze out from the cracks every once in a while.

LOL.
However, is he THAT wrong? I think he went about it a little too harsh, but he certainly makes valid points.

Back to the point. I'm not sure Gibbs makes my top 5 after the poor showing he has had the past few years (or as someone said, Gibbs 2.0).

ncskinsfanec · 08-05-2007, 12:25 AM

Top 5 in my book:

1. Vince Lombardi
2. Joe Gibbs
3. Bill Walsh
4. George Halas
5. Don Shula

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

If any of you people discredit Joe Gibbs because of only two bad season's of work since he's been back, you're either a complete idiot or too young to remember how unbelievably outstanding he was in the first go round. The man won three Super Bowl's with three different starting QB's for crying out loud!!! I have to give Lombardi the nod as tops of all-time though, he helped revolutionize football into mainstream America and he also sported the burgandy and gold briefly!

If coach doesn't get it done this year, he might bolt on his own or Snyder will do the unthinkable. If he can't do it this year I highly think we won't do it next year. Gibbs II has been overall an unsuccessful run so far, and if we don't get over the hill this season, it will be a long time in coming IMHO. What I said in the quote about only being as good as your last game/season is true. The last images I have of Montana are him in a fetal position in KC getting destroyed, not him airing it out with Rice in a SB. Chuck Noll ended up getting dumped and then going into obscurity. Very few folks can really remember the Gibbs I SB's that well that much. The images folks will have will be of 2 losing seasons in a row if we don't get it done this year.

SouperMeister · 08-01-2007, 04:48 PM

1. Vince Lombardi
2. Tom Landry
3. Paul Brown
4. Bill Walsh
5. Chuck Noll

Gibbs 1.0 might have snuck into the discussion, but Gibbs 2.0 has been as ordinary as pre-New England Belichik was in Cleveland.

skinsfan_nn · 08-01-2007, 04:53 PM

1.Joe Gibbs
2.Vince Lombardi
3.George Allen
4.Don Schula
5.Bill Walsh

Whoa, you even have an opinion on pre-modern era coaches, nice work. How old are you?

SlabHurta · 08-02-2007, 07:55 AM

Actually I just turned 20. I'm sure clutch won't compliment on my list. No George Allen in either one.
