Title should be "ties NFL record" not "sets NFL record"

No reason to lie about something like that.

2 of those coaches are already HOF’ers and Belichick will be the second he’s eligible.

Oh wow! How is Don Shula not in the HOF. He’s a member of the 70’s All Decade Team, the NFL’s 100th anniversary team, and the Dolphins Honor Roll team. Why do I seem to remember Shula getting a Gold Jacket. Must be another Mandela Effect.

If you play/coach long enough you’re bound to rack up tons of wins AND losses.
