    I don’t agree with your premise. There’s plenty of examples of coaches winning after losing one or more Super Bowls.

    Coaches that have lost a Super Bowl before winning one:

    • Hank Stram (won IV after losing I)
    • Don Schula (won VII after losing III and VI)
    • Tom Landry (won VI after losing V)
    • Dick Vermeil (won XXXIV after losing XV)
    • Bill Cowher (won XL after losing XXX)
    • Andy Reid (won LIV after losing XXXIX)
    • Sean McVay (won LVI after losing LII)

      Did they all throw the ball a million times when all they had to do was run it to win? Shanahan called the falcons plays #neverforget

        You seem to be under the impression that if somebody does something once, then they are forever required to do that same thing again. That’s not how it works.
