Here’s my rankings. Definitely different tiers in here.

1) Belichick - duh
2) Reid - Always gets teams deep in playoffs
3) Harbaugh - Won Super Bowl now on another run
4) Payton - Going 9-2 without starting QB for half the year is impressive.
5) Carroll - Seems to get most of his talent every year
6) Tomlin - Like Reid seems to always have teams in the hunt and won one early.
7) McVay - Boy wonder has had shine come off this year. But making super bowl in year 2 is impressive
8) Zimmer - Has taken team to NFC Championship and always has dangerous defense
9) Pederson - Won super bowl. Basically only reason he’s here. Has done nothing since.
10) Garrett - Always has teams in hunt. Doesn’t finish in big games
11) Gruden - Seems like players like him
12) Bill O’Brien - Have always liked him since days at Penn St
13) Shanahan - Had good offense in Atlanta and now with healthy team seems to be doing well but fell apart last 2 years with injuries. Needs playoff success to move up
14) Reich - Has team in contention. Was good with Pederson
15) Ron Rivera - Maybe the streakiest Coach in the league. He’s my top vote for DC next year if he’s fired. Made a super bowl.
16) Nagy - Liked his offense year 1. This year not so much
17) McDermott - Is this start just a fluke? Will find out soon
18) LaFleur - His offense isn’t reason GB is 8-3. It’s GMs signings on D
19) Arians - Had nice run in Arizona. Hasn’t been able to get through to Jameis.
20) Quinn - Made a super bowl but team has gone in tank since Shanahan left.
21) Vrabel - Teams have been competitive first 2 years.
22) Patricia - Runs confusing defenses for some but doesn’t appear his players like him
23) Fangio - Regarded highly as assistant. Needs a QB
24) Marrone - I mean they were good his first year
25) Kingsbury - Want his offense to succeed. Don’t know if it will
26) Gase - Proving to be career assistant
27) Lynn - Chargers has high expectations before the year. 4-7 now
28) Kitchens - Benefitting off easy schedule lately.
29) Flores - Dolphins have won 2 games in spite of giving away their best players
30) Shurmur - Doesn’t use Barkley in obvious situations. Can see him out after the year
31) Taylor - 0-11 is bad by any measurement
32) No coach for Commanders.

I respect your effort here.

I'd move Reid below Payton.
Hate to admit it, but Tomlin is deserving, this year, of your ranking.
I'd drop Garrett below Reich and Pederson below Riveira.
If Arians had Dak, Zeke and Amari, he'd be right there with Reid and Payton.
Vrabel might be moving up a few slots.

Any list the refuses to list the Commanders HC is fine with me. Nice work.

I

Even now that the Steelers have no offense, they are still in the playoff hunt. What happens when Garrett loses his starting QB? We get Elliott! Do you think had the Cowboys been coached by Tomlin these past 10 years we would have seen all these 8-8 records with yet another 8-8 or worse on the way? I don't see it.

Tomlin doesn't partake in player personnel decisions. He's kind of a throwback coach, and I just don't see that type of coach being as successful as a strategist that's never satisfied with status quo.

These lists are always so debatable...which is fine.
Id have Garrett lower, but no big deal

The one thing this does show is that great NFL head coaches don't grow on trees.

Garrett is ranked much higher than I would have thought. To be fair, I don't think Garrett is some kind of idiot. He's intelligent. I just don't think he's remotely close to being an elite head football coach.
