The guy who won the most games, went to 5 SBs and won 2, should be replaced on that list by who? Not to mention he is no where near last on that listFrankly, Don Shula doesn't belong in the top 10.

Well he deserves to be rated over people who won less.I haven't really thought about who to replace him (not sure about Reid), but he's easily atop a short list of most overrated coaches. Two Super Bowls in the early 70s, and nothing with Dan Marino despite the AFC being a dumpster fire for most of the 80s?
While I agree with the premise that some are trying hard to keep Reid out, I don’t share your opinion on Jimmy Johnson. He was a winner and leader of very strong personalities. He is responsible for the 3/4 (have to think he gets quite a bit of credit for that last Dallas SB as the winning culture was in motion) and overcame a super strong cast of opponents, including fantastic SF squads.
So, I’d say ‘not even close’ to the list is a bit much. As an owner, I’d want Johnson over Gibbs. Not a knock on Gibbs’ winning, but Jimmy would be my choice of the two.
OMG, that’s scary looking….he‘s a big guy, heck he was baby Huey big in those punt pass kick videos, but that’s morbidly obese.
I think hes better than Shanahan. Tuna? I admittely didnt watch him coach.
I think a sb win this year cements it but i think he's already close.
Absolutely no way... anyone who thinks so is very ignorant of NFL history.
Maybe top five ACTIVE coaches.. but winning just one SB and being considered a "top 10 HC" is an insult to the great coaches in the history of the NFL, Curly Lambeau, Tom Landry, Joe Gibbs, George Halas, Chuck Noll, Bill Walsh, Vince Lombardi, Bill Belichick, and Paul Brown. There's then another handful that have won two, like Parcells and Shula, etc. that have to be considered.
Do you think if he wins 1-2 more he could be top 10?Absolutely no way... anyone who thinks so is very ignorant of NFL history.

I voted "Yes," but this list gives me pause. Could he beat out Noll maybe? (I feel this disreputable impulse to toss Shula off the list, lol.)Without considering the full top 10 he can’t be above
Belichick
Lombardi
Brown
Landry
Hallas
Walsh
Gibbs
Noll
Shula
Johnson
so the best he could possibly be is 11 but there are a whole lot of guys with as many or more rings so I doubt it.
Are you putting him ahead of Tuna? Shanahan?
Noll won 4 SBs.I voted "Yes," but this list gives me pause. Could he beat out Noll maybe? (I feel this disreputable impulse to toss Shula off the list, lol.)
