Ranking Drought Coaches


Recommended Posts

Gotta give it to Marrone. He had the 2nd best win percentage (2nd to Rex Ryan, but only because he was fired before the last game of the season.)

 

Can't give Rex any props because he took an elite defense and destroyed it. He reversed the upwards trend for the team.

It’s an even funnier list if you rank them by the quality of their character.

 

I always liked Coach Chan. Made the offense tick with scrap parts.

 

I mean...OW! MY EYE!

Gailey

Marrone, obviously.

Gregggo

Cheeseburgers Mularkey

Rex, fully pregnant.

Skeletor

 

Gailey had the least amount of talent to work with and actually adapted his schemes to his players rather than the opposite... for that he gets the top spot imo.

We're ranking them by how well they coached, not which ones you want to !@#$.

Ryan

Marrone

Mularkey

Jauron

Gailey

Williams

 

Just one caveat here.   Ryan and Marrone were both more successful on the opposite side of the ball than their specialty.  Fact is they hired better assistant coaches than the other guys, which may have come down to Ralph's absence from the team at that point.

 

Rex gets a lot of flack, mainly because he is verbose and opens himself up to it, but those teams were competitive and had the best offenses any coach fielded during the drought.  His defenses also weren't as bad as people want to portray, but when you say you'll be #1 you better be #1.   His lack of discipline led to his downfall but in reality his teams were better than the other coaches listed here. 

 

On the other side of the coin Gailey tends to get a bit more credit than he deserves as his teams were lovable losers who were entertaining to watch.
