Sure, let’s rewind then, since you couldn’t tell where I was going with my post.
Would you rather:
A: Marvin Lewis coaches for 16 years, never winning a Super Bowl title, or even a playoff game, but wins 8-9 games per year.
B: He wins one in 2005 and promptly retires?
Mediocrity + longevity =/= honor or fame
But you’re right, they shouldn’t include coaches in the ring of honor, at least not yet. We just don’t have one that has been worthy of it (excluding pre 1990 stuff that I don't know about).
