I'm with the side that thinks coordinators should be given a stronger look for HOF status. Not all of them, but there have been some true game changers. In recent memory (so to not exclude any of the real good 60s/70s/80s coordinators i may not be familiar with), i'd suggest guys like LeBeau, Monte Kiffin, and the late Jim Johnson should all be under consideration for what they've introduced on the defensive side of the ball.
