KDIGGZ Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 based on what? this writer's opinion? a few years ago nobody would have given Pete Carroll a chance at being an NFL coach and now he's the 2nd best in the whole league? i just don't know how you can quantify this accurately Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. WEO Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Tomlin at 6?? Pagano at 10? Pagano shouldn't be in the top 20. Tomlin is no better than Rex. Arians should be in the top 5. After he top 2, Prisco seems to go by wins only. McCarthy way to high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Wagon Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Mike McCarthy is not the 3rd best coach in football. Prisco is a hack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mango Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 If move Marvin Lewis up a few spots. The dude does everything in Cincy and he doesn't have much of a FO. Pagano? I don't know what to think, it's the Andrew Luck Show out there in Indy. Not sure if their level of competitiveness is on Pagano or Andrew. I've liked Tomlin for a while, but Pitt has been mediocre lately. Jason Garrett is too high on the list. So is Wisenhunt. I'd move Pettine ahead of both. 7-9 with the disaster that was the Browns last year should put him around the average mark not under. Ron Rivera is riding the Cam train. McCoy, I'm meh on. That's a good roster in SD, and they have a franchise QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We would have been 11-5 / 12-4 with the Browns schedule last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mango Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 We would have been 11-5 / 12-4 with the Browns schedule last year. I wasnt thinking about placing him over Rex, the Browns are a disaster, the Raiders of the East. I didn't mention Rex at all. Just letting out results do the talking this year.

metzelaars_lives Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 When people talk about how good of a coach all these guys are, all they're talking about is the results they are able to get relative to the perceived talent on their roster. No one knows how good they are at actually coaching football players. For all we know some of the higher ranked coaches don't say much and their assistants do all the work and some of the lower ranked coaches are amazing at coaching football players but they are stuck with a roster that just isn't jelling for whatever reason. No one knows. It is ignorant of the author to assert that they know how good of a coach all these guys are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GunnerBill Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 In my opinion the 2nd best coach in football is John Harbaugh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He would always lead those Jacksonville teams that everyone thought would be the worst team in football to 9-7 every year. Although I guess that contradicts my post from earlier. Oh well.

thebandit27 Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 I honestly try not to be myopic about this type of stuff, but any list that doesn't have Arians in the top 4 or 5 is crazy IMO. Arians has done more with less than any other coach over the last 2 years. Other random comments: - Pagano and O'Brien are way too high. What's O'Brien done? Finish 9-7 in the worst division in football? That somehow makes him better than Chip Kelly, who's gone 20-12? - Jason Garrett too low; he's never had a losing season - Ken Whisenhunt is way too high. Tennessee was absolutely abysmal last year.
