How many coordinators actually have their game plans displayed in the Hall of Fame?

Belichick does — his defensive game plan from when he was the Giants’ DC facing Jim Kelly’s K-Gun offense in the Super Bowl is in the HOF. Those Giants teams that won under Parcells leaned heavily on Belichick’s defense.

For offensive coordinators, I’ve got to go with Bill Walsh. He’s the architect of the West Coast Offense, and a ton of today’s top offensive minds still base their systems on it.

Bill Walsh was OC in Cincinatti where he developed the WCO to compensate for Greg Cook who unknowingly tore his rotator cuff but played the rest of the '69 season and had an amazing season

Walsh didn't really develop his system until Stanford.


I think Reid has a strong case.

Bill Belichick
Wade Phillips

dikk LeBeau

OCs

Bill Walsh although technically he wasn't the OC in Cincinnati, apparently
Mike Shanahan


Josh McDaniels has done well, though the Patriot offense didn't seem to lose much when he left while Brady was still there
