Tony Dungy HOF?

Sorry, but I don't get it. Good coach, but when other coaches such as Jimmy Johnson aren't in I have no idea why Dungy deserves it. Is it as more or a career induction as a player, coach, commentator?

The racists will be in here saying no.

his game planning in Tampa was asinine to say the least
run up middle, run up middle, inc, punt
try to score on defense or play for field advantage
it was terrible at times, the play calling on offense and such a waste of a very good defense.

Yeah I don't get it.
Only argument I would take is that he was the first black head coach to win a Super Bowl and he has been an important face for the NFL for a long time.
He might not have been dominating the W/L charts, but he has had a good influence on a number of people both as a coach and as a media guy.

The reason you're even questioning this is because he's black.

I don't understand why Dungy is in the HOF before Holmgren. Both retired in the same year but Holmgren has the stronger resume. He coached in three Super Bowls while Dungy coached in just one. Holmgren has 12 playoff appearances while Dungy has coached 11 playoff teams. Holmgren also has four more playoff wins than Dungy as well as a higher playoff winning percentage.

Jerry Rice only got in because he's black.

I think because he is so well respected by Everyone in the NFL and has a great record

This is a travesty.... The dude brought a team from 1-15 and in three years had them in the SB.... A great job he did.... Dungy is more of a lifetime achievement award..............

Jimmy Johnson - what he did in college with Miami and Pros - and rebuilt that piece of crap 1-15 Dallas team to total dynasty in a few years - obviously is a HOFer.
Barry Switzer has one of his rings too.

I was listening to Bill Polian who I really don't like, talk about why Dungy should be in the HOF and after hearing all of his points I am in total agreement that he deserves to be in.

If he was white he wouldn't be in. It's sad how PC the NFL has gotten.

Modern day coaches in the HOF - who coached after 1980.
Bill Walsh
Bill Parcells
Chuck Knoll
Joe Gibbs
Tom Landry
Marv Levy
Don Shula
Tony Dungy...
Who has less wins, worse playoff % than Bill Cowher, Andy Reid, Mike Holmgreen, Shannahan, etc.
Bud Grant and Tony Dungy are the only HOF coaches to be in the Hall of Fame with losing playoff records...and Grant went to 4 Super Bowls.
Tony Dungy is the first coach in the modern era (who still coached after 1980) to be enshrined with a losing playoff record and 1 SB appearance.

I agree, no way. Jimmy was a MUCH better coach, not even close.

He's an ignorant bigot who for some reason thinks it's his right to counsel any NFL player with transgressions, despite the fact that he couldn't even counsel his own son.

Maybe but I would lean torwards no
Dude had some great teams in Tampa and never could beat philly
I don't know how many people remember but tampa's defense was awesome for about 7 or 8 years there with sapp, brooks, barber, lynch etc
Jon gruden came in and put together a average at best offense with no stars other then Keyshawn and won it all
And I'm not a gruden fan either I thought he sucked after the Super Bowl
