By my count, there are 5 current NFL head coaches (Hue Jackson, Vance Joseph, Mike Zimmer, Jack Del Rio, & Jay Gruden) who previously coached under Marvin, and I think I would pick any one of them over Marvin to coach a team if given a choice.
It is amazing that Lewis has the most inverted or unique coaching tree due to the sheer quantity of his staff who surpass him professionally.
The man seems to have an eye for talent at both coaching and playing football. This is one reason I have long contended he would make a better GM or personnel director than HC.
JOHN ROBERTS: From time to time in the years to come, I hope you will be treated unfairly so that you will come to know the value of justice... I wish you bad luck, again, from time to time so that you will be conscious of the role of chance in life and understand that your success is not completely deserved and that the failure of others is not completely deserved either.
