I like Clutches choice George Allen, with Lombardi next. Those guys got the most of their teams. Bellichik and Walsh would be next. Gibbs won with 3 qb's because he was stacked with the best WR trio in football along with a good stable of RB's and the best O line of all time. His defense was fairly solid as well. IF it weren't for Gibbs II he would have been there before Walsh on my list, but his second go around has been so so at best. Also I am not sure he should be the team president. Our drafts have sucked thus far with the exception of our first rounders and now McIntosh, and half of our FA acquisitions are busts or are currently looking that way.

Cooley, Blades, Golston, Fletcher, etc. Come on Gus I would argue Gibbs is doing what what he does best, finding good character guys to fill needs in their respective positions. It takestime for this to happen, just think of where we were when He took after Spurrier, what a nightmare!

It depends on which sport you are talking about.

Bill Belichick, easy. He easily outwitts every other coach in the league. And he doesen't need great players to get the job done either. All great coaches usually have a reasonable amount of talent, but look at his team every year you look at their starters and say "who is that?!?" atleast once.

I said he doesn't need GREAT players. Every coach needs an ounce of talent to get somewhere in any sport he just works with his talent better than anyone I have seen recently.

Since he hasn't gotten much love, I'll go with Shula. Winningest Head Coach in NFL history, 2 Super Bowl victories, 1 NFL Championship. And head coach of the only undefeated team in NFL history.
