And no one was making the case for either of those 2 to make a Super Bowl either. In fact, many many many people said that they could not win a Super Bowl because of their approach on offense (Dungy) or their lack of ability to motivate players (Belichick).

I don't know a lot about Belichick in Cleveland, and I heard he made some bad decisions, but the Browns weren't ever all that good... he also served under Parcells for 4 years before getting the head coaching position in New England, so it's not all that similar to Herm. He went to a SB with Parcells in NE and then to the AFC Championship game a couple of years later. It's not like some moron saw his resume and thought he was good enough to go straight into another head coaching position.
And like FenceJumper said, Dungy had some really good teams in Tampa...
