Lol at complaining about Jimmy Johnson getting in. Is this board full of nothing but homers?
To be fair, Johnson did win two SBs in Dallas, but the "star" did align fir him. He inherited the first pick in Aikman, and then got the bounty of picks for Herchiel Walker.
He gets credit for that, but when he went to Miami, he inherited a 9-7 team w/ Dan Marino, but still went 8-8, 9-7, 10-6, & 9-7... With multiple blowout playoff losses.
So he gets in based on a 3-4 yr run in Dallas and two SB wins.
Vermeil, in my mind made a greater impact considering the ness he took over in Philly & STL.
The Eagles did jot have a 1st, 2nd, 3rd round pick in his first two drafts, and did not get a first round pick until year 4. This is before any type of FA, so he built his team by just making players better w/ coaching.
Obviously the Rams were a mess as well, and he figured it out with good hires on his staff and the front office (Armey), and again just making players better.
Then put together some very good Chiefs teams, but getting those Eagles and those Rams to a SB and winning w/ the Rams, is a great feat, and HOF worthy.
