No coach in NFL history has been as influential to the X&O's as Coryell. His additions to the passing game are well known, but almost all of the modern running game are due to the influences he had prior to going to SDSU. John Robinson and the whole I formation crowd, along with the zone running thing is all a result of things he did. Modern football would look nothing like it does today without his influences. Sid Gillman and Bill Walsh got a lot of stuff from Coryell, and both of them tole the rest from Clark Shaunessy (Bears and Stanford), so mot of what they did was just refining what others did. Coryell really came up with it on his own.
HOF - Junior Seau and Don Coryell are finalists.

Apparently, the announcement of the inductees will be at the NFL honors show which starts at 6pm PST, with no advance notification to the finalists. It's going to be a little awkward in the green room for those that don't get picked.
