  • Here is one single trivia question re head coaches. (actually it is a two parter):

    A. Who is the only coach in history to lose a Super Bowl with one team, yet go on to win a Super Bowl with a different team.?

    B. Which HC still in the playoffs could possibly join the person named in A as the second coach to do so?

  • The reason for this question?: If the Browns get Whisenhunt he would have a chance to accomplish that feat here.

    (How do you like that optimism?)

  • Dick Vermill- Lost with Eagles won with Rams.

    Bill Parcels- Won with Giants lost with Patriots.

    Jon Fox- lost with Panthers.

    Both answers are correct....and thanks for answering a question that was not asked. Its cool.

    FYI, Mike Holmgren also won first with one team, and lost with another: Packers/Seahawks

    And don't forget Dan Reeves: lost with 2 teams but never won: Broncos/Falcons.

    No coach has ever won a Super Bowl with 2 different teams. (But both Guy Chamberlain and Weeb Ewbank won Championships with 2 different teams.....Chamberlain, pre SB, Ewbank won titles with the Colts in /58/59 and won SBIII with the Jets.

    Also Shula lost SB III to the Nameth Jets and later won with the '72 Fins...
