reason i picked lombardi is because of his intimidation factor.the other side of the field does'nt know what to do,and his players would better damn know what to do or feel lombardi's fury!

Gibbs, because he busts out the trick plays in a must-win game, and he puts his superstars back in punt-returns.

You always knew it was a huge game when you saw 28 back to return punts.

I figure I bring back this thread and have you guys read the responses. What do you say now? I say Gibbs as usual.

b: Bill Belichick
c: Bill Walsh
d: Joe Gibbs
e: Don Shula

Lombardi is a no brainer. After losing his first Championship game in 1960, he vowed to never lose another, after which he closed his career with 9 straight post-season victories.

I'd want Spurrier, with Ramsey playing QB!!!!

Seriously though, I'd definitely take Gibbs (I guess I'm a homer too). My second choice would be Walsh.

SmootSmack · 01-02-2008, 04:37 PM

Scotty Bowman

or Joe Gibbs.

GhettoDogAllStars · 01-02-2008, 04:42 PM

Joe Gibbs or John Madden. I love 'em both.

Vince Lombardi. Lombardi could motivate his players to run through a brick wall if need be. In this day and age, you just don't see that. The Patriots are the closest to a team where each individual player is willing to make personal sacrifices to better the team. So my close second would go to Bill Belichek, but of course, my favorite is Joe Gibbs.

GusFrerotte · 01-02-2008, 04:54 PM

ACtually Smooty,

George Allen would be a great pick, but since he wasn't an option, I would say it is between Coach Gibbs and Walsh. Allen helped build the franchise into winners and Gibbs took them over the top!!!!!!!

Joe Gibbs.

dgack · 01-02-2008, 06:03 PM

I'm going with Denny Green, for the post-game press conference entertainment value.

skinsfan0201 · 01-03-2008, 02:51 AM

J. Gibbs

Ditka!

J/K. I'd take Lombardi. As far as Belichick goes, he might give the team a slightly better chance to win in today's game than does Gibbs, but I'd still take Joe. He gives you a great chance to win, and he does so with class.
