[QUOTE="Forget Favre, post: 387948, member: 2006"] I don't know enough about NFL coaching history which is why I'm asking: Were't there other great coaches before Lombardi who accomplished similar things? Such as turning losing teams into winners? Winning X number of championships? Since Lombardi won the first two SBs I think it contributes to his legacy even more so to the point of naming the trophy after him. If Lombardi had done the same things back in the 30's, 40's or even early 50's then by the time the SB started, he would have been forgotten about and the trophy would probably be named after that winning coach. Sports, especially football, is all about firsts. [/QUOTE]
