Here is a list of every head coach that is in at least their second full season with their current team and whether they've had back-to-back winning seasons or not:

Jeff Fisher (1994): Y

Andy Reid (1999): Y

Bill Belichick (2000): Y

John Fox (2002): N

Marvin Lewis (2003): N

Tom Coughlin (2004): Y

Lovie Smith (2004): Y

Brad Childress (2006): Y

Gary Kubiak (2006): N

Mike McCarthy (2006): N

Sean Payton (2006): N

Wade Phillips (2007): Y

Mike Tomlin (2007): Y

Norv Turner (2007): N

Ken Whisenhunt (2007): Y (on pace to this year)

John Harbaugh (2008): Y (on pace to this year)

Mike Smith (2008): N (on pace for a losing season)

Tony Sparano (2008): Y (on pace to this year)

Jim Zorn (2008): N

Only eight of the nineteen head coaches that meet the criteria have not had back-to-back winning seasons, John Fox being the longest tenured. The only one that can come close is Marvin Lewis and he'll have a chance to change that stat in 2010, while Fox won't have a chance until 2011. Five of eight head coaches that have only been around with their teams since the start of '07 already have or are on pace to have back-to-back winning seasons.

If Fox stays, a full decade of Foxball will have been unable to produce a single set of back-to-back winning seasons.

It's not just about that, its comparing other coaches in the NFL and is very good analysts against those that think Fox should stay.

      Gustavsson would be insane. I think we would have to break the bank to afford that move. Which, I don't think is necessarily a bad idea. Ultimately, Freddie isn't likely to be around more than a couple of seasons more. We can all agree that unless they have a fleet of sports psychologists working on Kochetkov, he will never be capable of getting his head on straight enough to compete.

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.
