The Big Buck made an NFC Championship game and Schmidt and Caldwell never did. Caldwell never even won a playoff game here. So while the win percentage is higher, Fontes had more wins when it counted.

potsy clark won an nfl championship.  buddy parker won TWO nfl championships and lost another title game.  

come on.

Sure, they are better than Fontes. But in the modern, Super Bowl era, Fontes is our best.

george halas is on the list.  again, this is just lazy clickbait.

as to the big buck, fontes had the best players and came up short again and again, usually due to fontes' poor decisions.  

this just highlights how poor the lions upper management was at identifying coaching talent.

Those Fontes teams were pretty stacked(atleast by Lions standards), you always hear the narrative that it was Barry and nobody else but nothing could be further from the truth.

Of course they never had a good QB outside of that one season where Mitchell played really well and they went into Philly and got destroyed.
