Why not Art Shell?

He was terrible coaching the Raiders.  He ran a very undisciplined team.  Good lineman

The main problem with this theory is that it does not conform with the success the Raiders had with him as HC.

 

The fact is that he was 56-41 in his 5 years with the Raiders and HC'ed the team to three playoffs.

 

In contrast there has been a virtual revolving door of HCs with losing records (Gruden was the exception) since then.

 

If you accept your premise that he ran a terrible team in an undisiciplined way, then you also have to accept that this is the way to produce far better results than the Bills have produced or that other Raider's HC's produced.

 

How do you explain this disconnect?
