Hank Stram, born on January 3, 1923, in Chicago, Illinois, was a highly successful and innovative professional football coach. He is best known for his tenure as the head coach of the Kansas City Chiefs (formerly the Dallas Texans) from 1960 to 1974. Stram’s coaching style was characterized by his meticulous preparation, attention to detail, and creative offensive strategies. He was a pioneer of the “moving pocket” and popularized the use of the “stack” formation on offense. Under Stram’s guidance, the Chiefs became a dominant team in the American Football League (AFL) and ultimately won Super Bowl IV in 1970, defeating the Minnesota Vikings.
