That’s another ding for Lewis. That roster should have competed for titles. I was referring to their QB Andy Dalton.

And that's what I'd give McDermott. He's off to a promising start but it's only been one season. Is he the 18th best HC in the NFL? I don't know. As years go by, we may end up placing him in the Top Five. Then again, he may drop into the Bottom Five. Some coaches like Bill Belichick improve with experience. He's a better coach now then he was in Cleveland. Other coaches actually seem to regress. George Siefert, for example, won a Super Bowl in his first year as a NFL HC and went 1-15 in his last season. McD's first season won't define him. T is right- he could never win a game again and be a total bust or be enshrined in canton. last year he was still running a team that had some spots filled by not “his guys” As that happens more and more we will see. While I consider TreD Poyer and Hyde his guys, Tolbert and Ducasse were IMO too.... and northern did much to impress me.
whatdrought Posted June 21, 2018 Posted June 21, 2018 Probably too low, but that disastrous mid season slide on defense for a defensive minded coach is pretty hard to see past. And while the playoffs were huge, we did loose a very terrible game there.

We made the playoffs last year, we were the first team to beat the Falcons in their new stadium, all with Tyrod and a weak set of receivers. Tell me again how'd the Cowboys do last year? I agree, Process. I call it Big City Bias.
SouthNYfan Posted June 21, 2018 Posted June 21, 2018 1 hour ago, Kirby Jackson said: Maybe so but there is no reason for him to be behind Gruden, Lewis, Garrett and Mike McCarthy (off the top of my head). This list loves past accomplishments regardless of the coaches’ role. Is anyone impressed by Mike McCarthy?!? McCarthey is awful.

thebandit27 Posted June 21, 2018 Posted June 21, 2018 I think 18th is a bit low--I might say top 1/3 of the league, so probably in the 10-13 range. I think I'd definitely put Belichick, Tomlin, Reid, Carroll, McCarthy, Zimmer, Payton and Pederson ahead of him. I also think there's room to make an argument that any of Harbaugh, O'Brien, Marrone, Jon Gruden, Jay Gruden, Garrett, Riviera, Quinn, or McVay could go ahead or behind McDermott. So considering that, I think anywhere between 9 and 18 can be argued within reason.

mannc Posted June 21, 2018 Posted June 21, 2018 Wow, there are a lot of lousy coaches in the NFL. For my money, Jon Gruden would be number 32, just based on the utter garbage he’s been spewing on MNF the past 10 years or so. And his initial moves with the Raiders are highly questionable.

Dalton is not a Championship Caliber QB. No not a SB champ type, for sure. But he and his team are good enough to have won at least one playoff game. Lewis is zero for 7. Before Dalton, he had Carson Palmer . Zero for 2. Lewis is not a top 20 HC. It's amazing he has a job.

If McD gets the Bills back to the playoffs this season he'll jump into the top 10. In theory, the 12 coaches who took their teams to the playoffs should occupy the top 12 slots.

Seven playoff appearances is a pretty good track record despite the futility of not advancing. Again, look at the Bengals before he arrived as the HC.

Just my opinion, but they would have won the game in 2015 if it was Dalton and not McCarron. Dalton was on fire that year until he got injured.
Bray Wyatt Posted June 21, 2018 Posted June 21, 2018 they obviously didnt take into account McD's clapping skills which are top notch 1

Buffalo hasn't had a decent tree since the "Dutch Elm Disease" season! For anyone: When was the last time the Buffalo Bills Head Coach was ranked above 18?
