It's easy, and only takes a few moments.OK,you "in peace" liar...recently I can think of three off the top of my head...Tomlin,Caldwell and Sean Payton...that's just since 2006...you just start watching the NFL????? Going back 40 years I can find enough coaches that fit this parameter to fit multiple hands. Stop being a lying weasel and trying to push your cruddy Rat agenda...here's something to think about ,doofus...how many head coaches have looked HORRIBLE in consecutive AFC championship games???? That's right, ONE...guess who...
You've agreed with enough points to affirm the notion that Rex is a one trick pony and that trick got old very fast.
Let me put it another way.
Let's say - hypothetically - that a legitimate NFL coach suffered an aneurysm and thought it would be a good idea to guarantee a Super Bowl victory.
Then let's say - hypothetically - that after failing to win a Super Bowl he suffers another stroke and thinks it would be a good idea to make the same guarantee the next year.
Do you think that coach would have any credibility with his own players, let alone anyone else in the NFL after such brazenly stupid predictions which, even if they fostered any short term positive impact, are sure to undermine confidence in the coach in the long term?
And let's say that hypothetical coach who did engage in such stupid theatrics STILL didn't learn to keep his mouth shut and continues to provide ample motivation to opposing teams on a weekly basis?
Would you consider those the hallmarks of a "good coach"?
I actually disagreed with most of your points to dispel the notion that Rex is a one trick pony. So idk how you came to your conclusion. He makes predictions, he's confident in his team. Does he come across as a fool for it? Absolutely. Does it mean it doesn't work? Absolutely not. These guarantees are what got this team to come up to Foxboro (toughest venue to play) and kick the crap out of you guys last year. He speaks his mind and I commend him for it. He made it personal between him and Peyton, and we won. He made it personal between him and Belichick, and he backed it up. Did we win the champ game? Nope we didn't. We got beat by a better team.
Are there times where I wish he shut up? Absolutely. What he said about Norv this week was completely out of line. I again though fail to see how making predictions makes you a bad coach. Losing football games is what makes you a bad coach. Last 2 years we made it to the playoffs. We've hit a rough patch through 6 games, but the team has the talent to turn it around.
BTW...isn't it just a tad weird that a so called "objective" Rat fan is here for days demanding respect for getting slaughtered in the playoffs...the week of a game with the CHARGERS???? I mean, what the hell do the Patriots have to do with this game? It's like this clown has to defend his precious little green stool pigeons across the expanse of the World Wide Web, no matter where that quest shall lead....just plain weird.
Another post that can't back up his word with stats. Name me more than 5 coaches who did more than what Rex accomplished in his first 2 seasons? You can't, but I'll let you try.
John Madden...see earlier post
Tom Flores...took over the Raiders in 1979...won the Super Bowl a year later
you do see that WINNING the Super Bowl is FAR FAR beyond getting squashed in the AFC Championship...or do you?
Joe Gibbs...mentioned earlier
Mike Tomlin...ouch..that hurt huh?
Caldwell with Indy...protest all you want, these are YOUR parameters
Obviously there's Belichick...unless somehow you want to make some ridiculous disclaimer about HIS record as Pats head coach...
what's that so far...SIX???? Oh no, Jetfaninpeace...it CAN'T be!!!!...sadly, for you(and I'm far from done yet) ..it is.....enjoy breakfast....
I can't blame Jets fans for doing that. The Jets message boards are terrible. If I were a Jets fan, I wouldn't be posting on them.

Belichick-13-19 in his first 2 seasons as NFL head coach..so, no
Why does Tomlin hurt? He didn't beat us in that year. And I agreed with you about that one, RC fail there.
Caldwell-No, 3 playoff victories, vs Rex's 4. Caldwell did it with one of the best QBs of all time, Rex did it with one of the worst rookie QBs of all time...so, no again.
Flores-yes (good call on this one)
Gibbs-yes
Madden-yes
Billick-yes (good call on this one too, I overlooked him)
So in your entire search for head coaches that meet the criteria you came across 5. So, I should expand my 'one hand' to 'two hands' hehe. The fact that you claimed he was a mediocre head coach and only listed 5 HC that accomplished more than him in his first 2 seasons, only makes your original premise look ridiculous in itself.

So in your entire search for head coaches that meet the criteria you came across 4. By definition, on one hand means 4 others. Congrats, you still lost.
