Gus Bradley will be 8-24 (*best case) in his first 2 seasons as an NFL head coach.  Below are the last 11 Super Bowl coaches and their records their 1st 2 seasons as an NFL HC.



 

Bradley will have to lead the Jags to historical level improvement if he is to lead this team to a Super Bowl since every SB coach in the last 2 decades (except Dick Vermeil & Jimmy Johnson) started with 12 or more wins their first 2 seasons.



 

I only listed the past 11 seasons below but looked back the past 20 Super Bowls.  Dick Vermeil (Super Bowl in 2000 with the Rams) started 9-19 with the Eagles in ’76 and 9-23 with the Rams in 1997.  Jimmy Johnson began 8-24 with the Cowboys in 1989.



 

I’m not basing my opinion of Bradley solely on W-L record but if I did, I would be a fool to believe he will succeed against the odds.
