Maybe not most successful NFL coach but if including college Jim Harbough has got to be up there. Mike Vrabel is a recent one that comes to mind who's been successful. Obviously not to the degree of winning SBs though. Doug Pederson could definitely be near the top of that list.

Mike Ditka won a SB and is in the HOF as a player.

Shell is a good call as well.

Shell is a good one. That random 2006 season really soured people's view on him, but he had a winning % of .586 before that season.

The Lions are signing DE Raymond Johnson III to their practice squad, per source.

Johnson led the Bengals in QB hits and pressures in the preseason and was tied for second in sacks and total tackles.

Crap. I guess he saw a quicker road to getting on the 53 with them.

TE Nick Bowers landed on the Dolphins practice squad

Herm Edwards was a decent player. He sadly went to some football purgatory teams and was not super successful.

I thought Brown was worth developing.
I also thought they could work with 53 (I can’t spell his name). Thought he showed good power and was active in the run game.
Glad to see Davis back but he up there in age. With possibly losing Reader and Tupou next offseason, we need to have more development prospects (youth) at the NT position to help absorb one or both of those loses. Some that’s been i the system a year. So I thought 53 had a shot.
Interesting to see why no 16th yet. Hopefully an experienced safety. Which will be nice given Scott has only started a year and Thomas is more of a coach you really wouldn’t want to have come in to help settle things down if it’s a rough transition at the safety spot to start the season.

Sucks, but not surprising.

Dick Lebeau was a great player as well

Dan Reeves played in 2 Super Bowls, was an assistant coach in 3, and head coach for 4.
Tom Landry was an all-Pro in 1954 as a player/coach before turning to coaching full time
And I saw someone mention Jim Harbaugh but what about John?

I don't believe John Harbaugh played in the NFL.
