Jimmy Johnson is not a HOF Coach

To anyone not happy for Jimmy Johnson and questioning his credentials.......... you should really find another team b/c you aren't a cowboy fan.

I have no problem with Levy being in but Jimmy should have been in years ago.

I probably went too far on the definitely with Levy. But the 90s Bills get all sorts of either love or sympathy from sports writers who make them out to be better than they were.

As much as I love the Cowboys and the 90's Cowboys, I don't think Jimmy is deserving of being in the HOF.
His career was not long enough to establish that he was worthy of that honor.
He definitely deserves to be in the Cowboys Ring of Honor but not the HOF

Excuse me but if the members of the HoF that voted him in are okay with it then who the hell are you to object?

The 90's Bills team that made 4 Super Bowls in a row was a dynasty that never got crowned. Great talent with Jim Kelly, Thurmond Thomas, Reed, Bruce Smith.......... They just couldn't get by those NFC East teams.

It's not how long a head coach' career is, it's what he's accomplished during that time. :D
 
You are certainly entitled to your wrong opinion.

I agree with you.

IMPACT

This is why Jimmy got in. Impact over rides longevity.

Same reason players like Gayle Sayers got in after only playing 5 years. Or Namath with only a few great years. Their enormous talent and impact to the game were enough to overcome longevity or career stats. During their peak were one of the best.

Remember the HOF wants a group who represents the best to play , coach, administrate or own in their eras. Not a group who were in the league a long time.

Jimmy was certainly one of the best in his era despite an abbreviated stint. And that’s what’s great about the HOF. Sometimes it takes generations before someone is finally recognized. The fact he didn’t have a longer stint is what’s prevented him from getting in up until now.

After 25 years I think it’s become fairly obvious the IMPACT Jimmy had with the Cowboys and NFL and why he is a deserving inductee regardless of any other shortcomings like longevity. During his time in the NFL and Cowboys inparticularly he was one of if not the best. That’s all you need to get in.
