NFLPA Publishes Their List of Top Coordinators


Recommended Posts

https://nflpa.com/posts/nfl-players-rank-top-team-coordinators

 

They only show the top 5 among Offense, Defense, and Special Teams.  No Bills among this list.

 

Top 5 Defensive Coordinators

Aaron Glenn - Detroit Lions
Steve Wilks - San Francisco 49ers
Dan Quinn - Dallas Cowboys
Brian Flores - Minnesota Vikings
Raheem Morris - Los Angeles Rams 

 

Top 5 Offensive Coordinators

Frank Smith - Miami Dolphins
Thomas Brown - Carolina Panthers
Brian Schottenheimer - Dallas Cowboys
Brian Callahan - Cincinnati Bengals
Kellen Moore - Los Angeles Chargers

 

Top 5 Special Teams Coordinators

John Fassel - Dallas Cowboys
Chris Tabor - Carolina Panthers
Matt Daniels - Minnesota Vikings
Dave Fipp - Detroit Lions
Darren Rizzi - New Orleans Saints

 

*The survey was administered online by Artemis Strategy Group during the NFLPA visits between August 28 and November 16, 2023. All NFL players were given the opportunity to take the survey. 864 offensive players rated their offensive coordinator, 774 defensive players rated their defensive coordinator and 1,025 who play on special teams rated their special teams coordinator.

 

With 53 players on the active roster for 32 teams, that would be a pool of 1,696 players.  I don't know if players on IR or practice squads were included

You don't watch much football outside the Bills I'm taking it?

 

You should at least know Dan Quinn, they only showed him like 20 times in the Dallas game and couldn't stop talking about him.

One thing I've learned over the years, the majority of players aren't really clear on what it takes to be a high-level coach. What they are VERY clear on is how a coach makes them feel. Players don't view the game the same way most coaches and fans do.

 

This is really ranking the best "people managers" in those roles. As for X's and O's... well that shows up in the results.

Sorry but no sure how any list that doesn't include Steve Spagnola is credible.

 

You can argue he's the main reason the Chiefs have been able to win 2 championships and are fielding a historically good defense in KC this year that is more than good enough to carry them to another and why I would give pause to the idea the Chiefs aren't going to make it far this year in the playoffs between their offensive struggles and having to go on the road for the first time in Mahomes career.

 

A true perfect match type of hire when the Chiefs made that move after 2018 season.

The list is basically the rating given by the players that are under that coordinator on a score of 1 to 10.  You don't rate other team's coordinators, only your own.  If you hate your coordinator you give him a low score.  

 

Also, don't know how many players might have thought "my guy is #1 in my book" and chose the wrong answer.
