Your top 10 current head coach?

I don't talk about career wise but if you would be an owner, what are the 10 head coaches in order will you would take for the next 3-5 years?

 

yawn

why in STEELERS TALK?

can we get back to sport drinks or female/ male broadcasters

 

It will become another bash Tomlin thread and then it will be Steeler related

 

Ask this question to non Steeler fans and I bet a ton of people would have Mike Tomlin in the top 5.

 

1. Bill B.
2. Mike T.
3. Andy R.
4. Kyle S.
5. Sean P.
6. Maybe John H. He always seems to keep the team competitive no matter.
7- 10...... Whomever......People can say a whole bunch, but come see Me in 4 years when they are looking for different jobs, or retired, and You don't even want to admit You thought they were good.
Edit: I forgot someone....I put Pete C. at 5...., and move everyone down one.

 

Mike T is a better coach than Andy Reid?? Good lord man

 

1. Mike Tomlin
2. Bill Cowher
3. Chuck Noll
4. Chuck Knox

 

Again....what is his record against Tomlin without P. Mahomes??? Good Lord Man???
Tomlin was beating A. Reid so much that I heard MEDIA put it to question....What does Tomlin know that the rest of the league doesn't.

 

Tomlin is 5-2 against Reid.

Reid has been a head coach for 8 more years but their career w/l % is pretty close. During his time with the Eagles though, it was considerably lower than Tomlin's but during his time with the Chiefs it has been considerably higher. As you said @S.T.D , Mahomes will do that for a guys career.

 

Thank You My Friend
Although some will look over this, and tell You how much better A. Reid is.

 

Tomlin is 5-0 against Reid without Mahomes. 0-2 against him with Mahomes.

 

Correct

 

If I was starting a franchise and looking for future success, I would look to coaches that I think WILL have success and not coaches that HAVE had success. It also depends on whether or not this team has a high end QB or young talented QB on the roster. Lots of factors to marry a coach to a team. Either way, my best bet would be.

1. Andy Reid
2. Kyle Shannahan
3. Nick Sirianni
4. Zac Taylor
5. John Harbaugh
6. Sean McVay
7. Doug Peterson

My next grouping has two distinct sides
1. I am intrigued with Daboll and McDaniel but there isn't a large enough sample size yet (or enough success in that small sample size). Could be something here, might not be as well.
2. old heads: Belichick, Tomlin, Payton, Carroll, are all coaches that have a lot of past accolades... but probably not the coach I am looking to hire for the next half decade to decade. They are safe, but I would be less than enthusiastic about their future success long term.

 

As a coach, I'd have to really think about Tomlin over Reid

However, as an evaluator of talent, I think Reid over Tomlin all day.

This is not an indication that I think Tomlin has final say over the Steeler roster, I don't think he has ever had that, he is 1/3 of the vote. It's just hard to look past Reid's ability to find talent.

 

Absolutely nuts to say Mike Tomlin is in the same Universe in terms of football IQ as Andy Reid. I know many of you are homers but wow Steelers Nation is losing their damn minds.

 

yep, and after the next 3-5 years ask again the number of fans will be doubled

 

Come on man!!!! I know it's in parody but have some respect and put the 4 time SB winner ahead of the single winners Damn right Chuck Knox, damn good Pittsburgh boy. Can't remember and too lazy to look it up but I think Knox was Coach of the year a few times and I'm sure he is in Seahawks HOF.

 

Not true.Andy Reid won vs Tomlin in 2008 and 2015 without Mahomes.Reid was still over 60% in winning percentage before 2018 in 19 seasons

 

Ben is 5-0 against Reid without Mahomes. 0-2 against him with Mahomes.

 

After checking you are correct. When you Google Mike Tomlin against Andy Reed it gives you a 5-2 record for Tomlin but when you look at the date the article was written in was in 2017. That was before Mahomes came along so the true record of Tomlin vs Reid is 5-5.

 

See, I wondered if those numbers were correct. I guess not.

 

Counting the playoffs Ben was 0-3 against Mahomes. Ben's stats against the Chiefs in those 3 games are pretty good, 86-139 926 yards 7 TD's and 1 int. But Mahomes stats against the Steelers defense in those 3 games are insane. 73-97, 988 yards, 14 TD's and only 1 pick. In Mahomes 3 games against the Steelers he has racked up 119 points for an average of 39.7 a game.

 

And we thought Tom Brady destroyed us... whew, old Patrick shows no mercy on us at all.

 

yep - it is amazing, isn't it? the blind confirmation bias of some Fans.

 

as in: they own us, just as TB12 did.

Tomlin nor Cowher have / had ANY answers....

in that playoff game 2 years ago, we beat them up in the first Q, but Tomlin and Ben played for FG's. Dropsy Johnson dropped a critical EASY CATCH on third down. We should have been up 21 - 0. We were not. We are weak.
