I'm not sure I trust your ability to do basic math if you think 16-7 is "a little better" than 15-14 (and Bryant was 15-12-2, not 15-14).

Nick Saban were great HC's; however, they weren't very good at coaching bowl games.

16-7 in bowl games, 10-4 on NYSix Bowls, and only 3-3 in championship games.
Your numbers seem to imply that Saban was, in fact, REALLY good in bowl games.
I also note that you are only including the playoff championship games; Saban was in fact 6-3 in title games (7-3 if you include his NC season at LSU).
Saban was 12-4 in bowl games (including CFP title games) since the playoff era started.
If your argument is that having a great record in bowl games trumps overall record, then these two tied for #2 must be AMAZING, GOAT coaches:
Jimbo Fisher
Tom O'Brien
