  • In week 7 of the 2000 NFL season, the Carolina Panthers traveled down to the Superdome to play the New Orleans Saints in an NFC West rivalry game. And to get his team ready to play on the road and get adjusted to the crowd noise, Seifert decided to do something incredibly stupid during practice that, to the shock of no one, did not work out at all, and almost destroyed his reputation overnight. And it was all because of a leaf blower. This is the story behind George Seifert and perhaps the dumbest moment of his career

    I am a huge 49ers fan, George Seifert is a great coach in my view, he did a great job with the 49ers, when they won Super Bowl XXIX there were only 7 starters who played on the 88 and 89 times. He did win with Bill Walsh's players at first but he maintained the system and did a great job. He almost got Carolina to the playoffs in his 1st yr it did go downhill after that, I think he gets a bad rap because he followed Bill Walsh. Mike Ditka was worse in his time in New Orleans. That last season for Seifert ended his HOF chances.

      Jackson is the most overrated coach in NBA history. He inherited an elite bulls team lead by MJ-who in 1991 went crying to commissioner Stern about the Pistons physicality. Stern realize that a MJ winning championships would be great for his League.
      Jackson also got humiliated and outcoached by Larry Brown in a five-game loss to the Pistons in the 2004 Finals. He also lost the 2008 finals by the most lopsided game 7 ever, and got humiliated by the Mavericks in 2011. The so-called greatest coach ever wouldn't have that happen to him.

    Seifert was more of a co-coach on San Francisco. Mike Holmgren was paid HC money to stay from 1989 to 1991. Mike Shanahan took over the offense in 1992 through 1994. The plan in San Francisco was for Seifert to stay on through I believe 1996 then move him to the front office and Shanahan would take over... then Denver called... Seifert's worst moves weren't in Carolina. He was given say in personnel in San Francisco. He put Ronnie Lott and Roger Craig on Plan B and traded Charles Haley to the Dallas Cowboys. Then ignored Joe Montana on the practice field in 1992 and ran inside the field house when Montana was promised he could throw for him while Montana chased him. Seifert is a loser. Holmgren should have taken over after Walsh.

    I think it's easier for a coach who's a HOF lock to blow his chances than a player. Voters understand that physical skills erode over time. A guy is not going to be as physically gifted at 35 as he was at 25. But coaching isn't about being physical. It's about decisions. So, a coach should -- at least theoretically -- age a lot more gracefully. When that doesn't happen, it's easier to understand voters holding it against a coach.

      Sometimes a coach was handed a great situation and got a lot out of it, but wasn’t capable of getting very far with a middling roster to start with like Siefert.
      I would say he doesn’t belong in Canton, but I’d also lean towards no even if he never coached in Carolina.
      Solid coach, and a very good coordinator (perhaps overlooked in that regard because he became a coach), but not quite a Hall of Famer.

      @@fortynights1513 As a 49ers fan, I'm inclined to agree. I'd actually argue that his time as a DB coach and defensive coordinator might put him over the edge. But he didn't have the NFL longevity of a Dick LaBeau and also wasn't a Steeler (I'm pretty sure everyone associated with the Steelers is considered a HOF until they prove otherwise).
      I think maybe the argument for him is that while he was handed a great situation, he also saw a lot of turnover. Aside from Rice, Taylor, a few OL and Young (who you can count but was obviously in a different role), there wasn't much holdover from the 89 team to the 94 one. Yet he won the two Super Bowls and went 48-16 in the four seasons between them. That's not just taking over Walsh's team. That's doing really well long after he's gone.

      @@mfdixon1985 Those are fair points.
      I will say though that what these guys do as coordinators doesn’t appear to be factored in at all when they are judged for Canton.
      Not saying those tenures shouldn’t be considered, but I don’t recall anyone mentioning them at all other than as a footnote.
      I would agree that there’s not a necessarily a ton of the roster from 1989 that also was there in 1994, but some observers probably see Young and Rice, and assume he had a lot of talent to work with that Walsh gave him that stayed throughout his tenure.
      There’s also the perception that the 1994 title was bought more than earned.
      The 49ers made a lot of free agent signings in 1993 and 1994 (on defense in particular), and I’ve heard people say that that title was won by acquiring more talent than anyone else as opposed to good coaching.
      Indeed you’ll find guys who made pro bowls or received other individual recognition before that in Tim McDonald, Deion Sanders, and a few others that show up on their roster in 1993 and 94.
      However correct me if I’m wrong, but were Dana Stubblefield, Bryant Young, and Merton Hanks were all drafted under his watch?
      I’ve heard the latter was overrated, but still that’s a starter drafted in the fifth round if so.
      After a year in transition in 1993, the 1994 team had one of the more talented defenses of their generation, but there were several free agent signings.
      Seifert had an interesting career as a coordinator and coach.
      If nothing else, he was the head coach for four teams that show up as the best in the regular season by one formula I devised in addition to the two titles and four other playoff wins.

      @@fortynights1513 Dick LeBeau is the only one that really comes to mind. He was a good player but not a Hall of Famer and certainly wasn't a Hall of Fame head coach.
      As far as guys drafted under Seifert, you're correct. Stubblefield, Young and Hanks all were. Lee Woodall and Eric Davis both were, as well. Not quite the caliber of the other guys. But very good nevertheless. And that's just the defensive side of the ball. Rickey Watters, William Floyd, later Terrell Owens were all drafted with Seifert as coach. And you can say Young was a Walsh guy. He was acquired by Walsh with the intention of having him replace Montana. But Young, while way overqualified to be a backup, was also pretty inconsistent in his stints filling in for an injured Montana. So, while Seifert inherited Young, he didn't necessarily inherit the Hall of Famer.
      Anyway, I'm a Seifert fan but given his performance in Carolina, I don't have an issue with him not being in the Hall of Fame. But I do think he deserves more credit than just "inheriting Walsh's team." That's more like Barry Switzer, who the Cowboys steadily imploded under, despite winning a championship.

    Seifert hurt is Hall of Fame chances and maybe he was more an excellent coach than architect of a franchise, but I believe his decision made it easier for the John Fox-led team to play with a clean slate (Seifert's other problem was that rookie veteran Chris Weinke was totally ineffective for the 2001 Panthers, but Seifert did bring aboard team building blocks such as Steve "attitude of steel" Smith, Kris Jenkins, & Dan Morgan while slashing payroll to a respectable level.
