Thank You ... I 100% agree, but posters will blame him for the lack of talent, and being mediocre. He got the most out of the players Shack gave him.  JDR coached teams were very competitive. Without a quarterback that had the talent of T-Law.  Imagine if you gave the Jaguars a high end Quarterback on JDR's coached team(s).  He just doesn't get the credit he is due. Take Brees off of Payton's NOS team ... What do you have? Del-Rio coached a less than mediocre roster into a hard win for any opponent. Straight up, I would take him over Tomlin, and I only say that because I think they compare pretty equally.

JDR and Tomlin compare pretty equally?  Let's see:

Wins:

Tomlin:  152
Del Rio:  93

Winning Percentage (Regular Season):

Tomlin:  .646
Del Rio:  .497

Seasons with .500 or Above Records

Tomlin:  14 (not counting this partial season)
Del Rio:  6

Losing Seasons:

Tomlin:  0
Del Rio:  6

Division Titles:  

Tomlin:  7
Del Rio:  0

Playoff Appearances:

Tomlin:  9
Del Rio:  3

Playoff Wins:

Tomlin:  8
Del Rio:  1

Super Bowl Appearances:

Tomlin:  2
Del Rio:  0

Super Bowl Wins:

Tomlin:  1
Del Rio:  0

In summary, Tomlin is a head coach who in his 14 full seasons has won the division title 7 times plus another 2 wild card appearances and never finished a single season with a losing record.  He's a Super Bowl winner and also appeared in another and has 8 playoff wins to his credit.  On the other side, Del Rio has as many losing seasons as winning seasons.  His overall record has more losses than wins.  He never won a division title in 12 years and has only won 1 playoff game.  It doesn't feel very comparable to me.
