Better Viking HC, Burnsie or Dennis Green?

Yes, Dennis HC'd Minnesota a lot longer than Burnsie did hence a bit more winning-seasons/playoff-berths, but Burnsie discontinued after '91 because he retired. Safe enough to assume had he stayed a few more years, Vikes go back to being a playoff-regular again those next few years as they actually did under Green. Bernsie did have a better post-season win %age than Green (3-3 to his 4-8). Green has an extra NFCC-appearance to his credit but let's face it, Bernsie had quite a bit less to work with in '87 than Green did in either '98 or '00 (especially the former, obviously). Who do you think is best between these two?

Burns by a huge margin. Green seemed to be a perennial flop in the postseason.
