Coaches Facing Big Seasons:
Bill Cowher: Seems to be able to craft a really good football team every five years or so. If the Steelers can have another monster year, will cement his status as an elite coach.
Jon Gruden: Has been successful both as an offensive coordinator and as a head coach with the Raiders and Bucs. Will prove coaching acumen with a surprise playoff season this year.
Tony Dungy: If his new-look Colts stay strong, then must be considered elite. If they fold again, he gets downgraded to tier 2.
Dick Vermeil: The Chiefs need to have a good season to keep their coach out of the "you're too old, let go" dustbin.
Mike Shanahan: Hasn't been a mastermind in a long time. Perhaps his team should consider being a real contender one of these years.
Jim Haslett: Can vault himself into the category of 'elite' if the Saints play well, mostly because everyone is overvaluing their games right now. A bad season would probably be excusable, but would knock him back down to the shaky category, where he's resided for a few years now.
Bill Parcells and Joe Gibbs: If their teams contend, they're back in the elite and their legend swells. If their teams suck, it may be time to shuffle on back to the nursing home.
LMFAO.
This is quite possibly the worst critique of NFL coaches I have ever read in my life. You have multiple superbowl winners towards the bottom and consistent losing coaches towards the top. Let me help you out:

+ lost a superbowl for each +
* won a superbowl for each *
your "tier 1" is decent, but your tier 2 is the worst combination of coaches in the NFL today. LOL. then, to top it off, 3 coaches in your 5th tier have a combined
Superbowl record of 6-3. pathetic. but i guess winning superbowls is somehow irrelevant in your ranking system. gratz.
I tell it like a true mackadelic.
