Who is the best coach of all time? (excl; Landry and Lombardi)

[Cowboy Brian]

Well since 99% of us here will say Tom Landry, and we would be right by saying so (the other 1% would say Vince Lombardi).

So who is the best coach of all time excluding Vince Lombardi and Tom Landry?

for me I would say Bill Parcells but I really only know around 20 years of coaches, so I can not wait to see the responses some of you old timers will have

I'd second this.

I feel he revolutionized the game for the modern era.

What's funny thing is allot of today’s passing game Paul Brown played a role in and his system is still being used

 

[JustDezIt]

Hes not a bad coach. No place for him in this discussion though, although he is one of my favorite coaches of all time.

I want to throw Jimmie Johnson into the discussion 3 super bowl wins gets him mention.

The 5 best Coaches I have ever seen in no particular order are...Tom Landry, Vince Lombardi, Don Shula, Bill Belichick, and Bill Walsh.

I meant two, I was thinking three in my mind because of the fact we won 3 in the 90s, although he built the team that won the 3rd.
