Tom Landy, Chuck Noll, Bill Walsh, Bill Belichick numbers, everyone.

Yep, I’d take all of those coaches over DA right now.

I’m sure he’s a likable guy, but it’s clear to see he’s in over his head.

If DA loses the last 11 games of this season, he will be slightly below .300, which would put him at the bottom of the all-time NFL worst coaching records list above (75 starts min), sub-Bugel and sub-Marion.

*Currently 26-50. Falling to 26-61 --> .299 "winning" percentage.

Mickey Loomis on keeping HC Dennis Allen:

“Chuck Noll his first three years: 1-13, 5-9, 6-8. They recognized he's a good football coach. Bill Belichick, his first three years: 6-10, 7-9, 7-9. Tom Landry: 0-11, 4-9, 5-8, 4-10, 5-8. All of them Hall of Fame coaches. The easy thing is to blame them.”

Don't worry guys. We have a future Hall of Famer in the building.

At a minimal, he’s already the worst over the past couple of decades at least.

You have to look past the results.

With a record like that I think he's got a future career in Louisiana politics...

of the four coaches listed by name above to compare with Allen, only Romeo Crennel is alive, and his record is /now/ better than Allen’s.

The three deceased coaches’ careers started before the salary cap era of parity began, unlike Crennel and Allen, whose “winning” percentage is below Crennel’s. So to some extent it is unfair to the deceased coaches to compare them with Allen, since they coached in an era where the Niners and Cowboys had 2X the payroll of some other teams.
