Only Coughlin and Vermeil haven't followed that path in the last 15 years. Being a retread HC isn't necessarily bad as long as that coach has not won a Super Bowl.
How many super bowl winning coaches have gone on to coach another team? How many years did those coaches continue to coach without a championship? How many years do non-superbowl-winning coaches have to coach, on average, before winning their first championship?

The idea that we shouldn't hire a coach who already has a superbowl because there have never been any to repeat with another team is flawed, IMO, because of the small sample size.
