Head Coach Power Rankings - Belichick #1 of Course.

1. (4) Bill Belichick, New England Patriots. Now that the Pats have had a couple of close calls, we understand why Belichick is running his team full throttle 24/7 this season; though graced with fortuitously panicky play-calling from his counterpart late in the Philadelphia game, Belichick and Tom Brady have shown they can still create and engineer the no-nonsense, mistake-free fourth-quarter comeback drive always a hallmark of the New England dynasty.
2. (2) Mike McCarthy, Green Bay Packers. The NFL's head coach of the year, no question. Excepting the secondary and QB, McCarthy and staff have essentially entirely remade a squad that within two seasons is among the league's elite. And they're probably here to stay, Favre departure or no. (Even with a loss to the Cowboys.)
3. (3) Mike Tomlin, Pittsburgh Steelers. The NFL's rookie head coach of the year.
4. (1) Tony Dungy, Indianapolis Colts. Hitting their traditional bumpy patch right around the two-thirds mark, a slack Colt loss shows Dungy's system isn't quite 100 percent impervious to injury.
5. (5) Wade Phillips, Dallas Cowboys. Sure, it was mostly Bill Parcells who assembled this team, but Phillips made things better.

IMO Andy Reid at #24 is a joke he's better than that ... but it's not my list so whatever. Also, Mike McCarthy #2 ... pleaseeeee Tomlin deserves to be atop him all day long.

Lane Kiffin is 12th?

Jeff Fisher is in the top 5 easily IMO. Anybody that can go 14-13 with Vince Young as their QB is a hall of fame intellect.

This is pretty much a view of what's wrong with these coaching polls, and coach of the year voting, and all that jazz.

Coaches don't get better or worse by the month. John Fox is still a pretty good coach, Andy Reid is still a pretty good coach... And why was Belichick #4 last month? Did anyone really believe that there were 3 coaches better than Belichick?

LOL. that being said , what happened to all the analysts who kept saying 'vince young just wins' now that they have lost the last few games.

That's funny ... I think Jeff Fisher is a very good coach also.
BTW: what is Joe Gibb's excuse?
IMO him at #23 is a joke also.

Very innacurate, Mangini #27 should be lower than that.

Why not?
Packers are 10-2. They're in the play offs.
Last year they were pretty close to the cellar.
Quite a turn around if you ask me.
