Something to consider for those not wanting a retread

Recommended Posts

Of the last 10 Super Bowls, only 3 were first time coaches. Ironically on the same team, Cowher and later Tomlin. Billick with the 2001 Ravens.

Belicheat was a multiple winner.

Start with Holmgren, Shanahan, Vermiel, Gruden, Dungy and Coughlin.

So in the 10 year window from XXXIV- Rams to Pitt last year.

7 were retreads.

The 10 before that-only Holmgren was coaching his first time as a head coach.

I don't count Switzer because he coached at the college level and just showed up.

So in the last 20 SB wins. 4 were first time head coaches. I technically put Siefert in the same category as Switzer of inheriting a juggernaut and just staying out of the way.

Food for thought.

And all seven of those retreads have something in common. Anyone know what it is?

never won a super bowl prior

Bingo. None of them had already won a Super Bowl. Only one had even been to it (Vermeil) and that was years before. Gruden came close.

No coach has ever won a Super Bowl with a second team after winning it before. A few have made it back, but no winners. Others (George Seifert, Jimmy Johnson, and even Joe Gibbs for example) haven't even sniffed it.

I'm not ready to bet that we'll be the first to break that trend.

Correct. A strange way of eliminating Cowher.

Holmgren was the only one to take another team but he didn't win.

In fact, of all the retreads, I like him best simply on his track record of multiple team success. Same for Dungy but the winning it with the second team after already winning one goes against both of them as well.

Holmgren's Packers won the 1996 Super Bowl

A ridiculous statistic from a miniscule sample to make a HC hiring decision on.

This would be like saying no starting QB has ever won a Super Bowl with a second team. So we don't want Tom Brady or Peyton Manning under any circumstances! Brilliant logic.

It has as much validity as pointing out that seven of ten were won by retreads.

The teams that have had success with retread coaches have been the ones who hired guys that have been close to the mountaintop, but haven't made it. Teams that have hired past Super Bowl winners have found varying degrees of success, but have never found Super Bowl victory.

Can you dispute the truth of those statements?

    • It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed. 
    • I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
    • 7 wins this year and some of those against really good teams and yall think Canales might get fired? Lol Good luck getting a better coach in here if that happens.
