Bill Cowher DC of the Chiefs before hire
Bill Belichick former DC who could not get over the top with Browns
Brian Billick former OC of the Vikings
Jon Gruden former OC who could not get over top with Raiders
Mike Shanahan former OC who could not take the Raiders anywhere
Mike Holmgren OC of the 49ers
So, what's the connection? All former coordinators. The only Super Bowl winning coaches that were not coordinators were Tom Coughlin who was HC at BC and Dick Vermeil who was HC for UCLA. That's going back 15 year in Super Bowl history. Seiffert was a coordinator as were Walsh, Gibbs, Parcelles, Flores, Noll, Landry, Lombardi. Get the idea?
