No, but I think the point to be made is... there are coaches who adopt insanely talented teams and bring them to the playoffs right away. Their job is to sustain an already really good team. Their win % will obviously be higher, because their team is good enough to win right away. And then there are coaches who are starting from the ground-up--few coaches can sustain a winning record in the middle of a rebuild. My point is that I'm just tired of hearing people point to the idea of the Chiefs winning only 6 games, completely disregarding the fact that they lost Roaf, Shields, Green, Holmes, T-Rich, Kennison, and eventually Jared Allen, with only less than a handful of quality players under 30 because of 10 years of horrendous drafting. Again, what coach could possibly do well under those circumstances?
