Bud Grant, Bum Phillips, Don Shula.

Only Don Shula is correct.

And, this is sort of a hint:   In order to lose a lot of games....you have to be considered good enough to be kept around a long time.   Seven of the losing coaches in history are in the HOF for their coaching.   (Shula/Halas being two of them)

Chuck Noll & Tom Landry? (both coached a long time & had some crappy teams).
