Was Loomis Taken out of Context By His Remarks (Comparing DA to Coaching Greats)

DerrickB said
When he compared DA having similar starts in his first two seasons as a coach compared to Chuck Knoll, Bill Walsh, Belichick, and Tom Landry, I don't think he meant that Allen would have a similar rise.

It was more of saying what can happen when teams are patient with their HCs when they are first starting.

I have seen a lot of people on Saints Twitter, Saints FB Groups, podcasts, and even the local media that were not too pleased by what ML said.

Thoughts?

Other then Belicheck, who had a frustrating, difficult run as Browns HC from 1991-95 but also had to contend with a meddling, egotistical, egocentric owner in Art Modell who was needlessly spending money he didnt really have and had to use his wife's banking account once to sign Andre Rison as a FA early in the 1995 season, the other HC's you mentioned had outstanding careers or tenures as coordinators elsewhere. Bill Walsh couldve gotten a HC gig a lot sooner then in 1979 if Bengals owner and HC Paul Brown hadn't secretly bashed him for years behind his back, telling other NFL teams' owners and GM's that he was emotionally, mentally unstable and could not handle the stress and responsibilities of being an NFL HC.

Belichek's lack of success or problems in Cleveland has to be viewed within the greater context of the FO disarray, ownership meddling and chaos. DA hasn't shown, except for this season, he can be a successful winning HC. He's a poor man's Haslett, except that maybe Allen was and is a better DC then Haslett ever was here, Pittsburgh, or in Washington D.C.
