If you absolutely had to win a game which Coach would you want on the sideline?

I'll take Walsh.. The man changed the way the game is played, nobody else on that list can make that claim.

I believe the cowboys won 3 superbowls using the Gibbs (Coryell system) the Skins won 3 SB's and lost one. West Coast offense is the Paul Brown's offense, I'm sorry but I would take Gibbs over Walsh any day.

George Allen, the man could turn a team of losers into winners overnight.

Of the choices listed, Bill Walsh - one of the greatest football minds, and he was always so well prepared. The one slight drawback for Walsh is that he wasn't as emotional a coach as some others like Lombardi, so for a single game having a coach who can press the right buttons to fire up his players might be advantageous - Walsh could do this well for the long haul, for a single game someone like Lombardi might be much better - but I'll still go with Walsh for his football mind and preparedness.

You have to be the biggest George Allen fan in the world

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.

No shit! That dude can smell a George Allen thread in his sleep.

It depends on which sport you are talking about.

of that list, ill take Lombardi. i don't think he ever lost a championship game. but coach Gibbs would be a close second

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.

The Cowboys won 3 SB's because they had the best players. That system stuff is overrated.

Give me the best game day coach. Bill B.
