In all the years that professional football has been played there have only been twenty-two coaches who have entered the Hall of Fame, which means that they have done a significant amount of work in the coaching industry and have had a huge impact on the game (Positions). The strategies they used to be such a great coach must have been incredibly good. Many people wonder what are the strategies for coaching a football team and what are the strategies that famous coaches have used to be a successful coach. Two of the most famous coaches are Vince Lombardi and John Madden; in people's opinion they were the best coaches who ever coached the game because their game strategies were incredibly good. They had the better running and passing plays on offense. They also had the best defensive formations for defense, man coverage, zone coverage, four-and-three coverage, and three-and-four coverage. They had the best plays for both rifle and pistol plays. They also had the best special teams plays, from field goal fakes to onside kick returns. John Madden and Vince Lombardi are the best National Football League coaches to ever coach in the National Football League thanks to all these great plays that have put them so high in the coaching industry. There are probably many bigger and more famous coaches, but they have not done as much or as much as what these two brilliant coaches have done to entertain the world in the game of football. Not only did they have the best game types and strategies to use, but they both also had a wide variety of players on their teams. If Lombardi wasn't as good a coach as people say, then he wouldn't have a trophy named after him for the team that wins the annual Super Bowl every year... half of the card... because if they lose, most of the blame goes to the coach and he could be fired, or a lot of hate could build up and no other team would want the coach as a head coach for you.
