It is just a short read, but LeBeau has to fall in to the same category as Bill Walsh as "one that got away". His defenses with Walsh's offenses? Don't get me wrong, he was awful as a head coach and I loved Sam Wyche, but this is an interesting statement from LeBeau, who at 80 years young is probably one of the only guys that looks like he could out-drive my 84 year old father.
I don't think Vince Lombardi or Paul Brown could have won with the players LeBeau had when he was head coach here.
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.
