I'm partial to failed head coaches who were excellent coordinators.
Some of the best coordinators were terrible head coaches.
See: Gregg Williams
Coughlin, DV, and to a degree Belichik had success before winning the SB butdidn't and it may have been a case of wearing out the welcome and having to move on. I thought Coughlin was great in JAX and if he had ended up in STL I would have been plenty OK with it, he's a good one.
The trend of guys doing well the first time around but winning it all in their second tenure bodes well for our guys. Not all the retreads work out but there is a definite pattern of the better ones eventually getting to the top. Frankly this ball club owes me at least one title in the next few years. I've been patient through some really lousy football.
