Quote:Fact of the matter is, not many HC's in their first gig get it done. Mike Smith was the 2nd fastest HC to 60 wins, multiple double digit winning seasons, turned around a bad situation when he stepped in their into a great one, etc. 

 

Like I said before when I had this discussion, if that's mediocre, sign me up right now.

 

 

Yes, they do.  Look back at the last fifteen years or so.  Most winners won in their first or second HC job.  That's not counting the first HC gig guys that got there but lost.

 

31 of 32 fail to win it every year.  Those that do win it are usually in their first or second HC job.

 

The coaches to avoid are those who have already had more than one NFL HC gig.  Only two in recent times have done it.
