Bill Walsh has one of the greatest coaching trees in NFL history.  He took over a SF team that hadn't been to the playoffs for 6 straight years.   BB took over a Cleveland team that went to the playoffs 5 of the last 6 years before he got there.  He took over a NE team that went to the playoffs 3 of the previous 4 years before he arrived and was 8 and 8 the year before he arrived.

Walsh invented the modern day passing game.

Thank you!

Folks want to act like facts don't matter but they do!

Also Walsh's teams were never credited with systematically cheating for which the NFL had to cover it up either...... :)

True, but he did make at least one big mistake QB-wise.  After New England cut him loose, Jim Plunkett went to Bill Walsh at SF, his college coach, and Walsh couldn't do a thing with him.  He let him go to the Raiders, where he won 2 Super Bowls.

 

Guess even the good ones screw up sometimes.

He didn’t make a mistake with Plunkett.  Plunett had PSTD when he left the Pats.  He sat in Oakland until their were injuries.  He got into 4 games his first year their and sucked.  It's only when he sat and was reinserted onto a ready to win team that he was able to produce.  

He wouldn't have done that in SF that's why Walsh moved on to Deberg and drafted Montana.  It worked out well for both SF and Plunkett.  Plunkett would have continued to be beaten up on that bad SF team and he really wasn't a WCO QB.  He was a guy who threw the ball down field and in Oakland he had that team.
