that Bill Walsh and Bill Parcells have had. The hard evidence is apparent again as the NFL playoffs begin.All 12 of the coaches have some sort of tie-in to either three-time Super Bowl champion Walsh or two-time winner Parcells. Yes Custom Greg Gaines Jersey , all 12.Some are direct: New England’s Bill Belichick, New Orleans’ Sean Payton and the Chargers’ Anthony Lynn were assistants under Parcells.Other affiliations on the coaching tree go out on a bit of a limb. The Colts’ Frank Reich worked for Doug Pederson, who coached under Andy Reid, who worked for Mike Holmgren, who was a Walsh protege.It all gets a bit complicated, but as Bob Glauber, the NFL columnist at Newsday points out, all the connections are legitimate.Indeed, Glauber’s recent book, “Guts And Genius,” is all about not only Walsh and Parcells, but Washington’s Joe Gibbs.

He started what I think is the most productive coaching tree in pro sports history, not just in the NFL.”Consider that such Walsh disciples as George Seifert, Mike Shanahan, Mike Holmgren and Pederson have won Super Bowls.“He knew how to train coaches and he concentrated on it and it meant a lot to him to see them become successful coaches,” Glauber says.“It is not coincidental that for Walsh and Parcells, their lifeblood runs through these playoffs this year.And previous ones.Glauber points out that since 1981 Los Angeles Rams Jerseys Stitched , 30 of the 37 Super Bowls have been won by a coach with ties to either of Walsh or Parcells.
