The Standard is the Standard

I saw this chart on X...loved it.

Super Bowl-winning coaches ranked by championship percentage (calculated as Super Bowls won/Games coached.

Tomlin is dead last (also dead last in playoff winning percentage too, although I'm not sure they got that right as Cowher finished 12-9 in the playoffs, yet they say his win percentage was .474)

PS Lombardi would be by far the best if they counted his NFL championships.

Siefert and Switzer clearly riding coattails and Tomlin too
The surest way to corrupt a youth is to instruct him to hold in higher esteem those who think alike than those who think differently.

Jeezus Christ, worse than Pete Carroll.

I was thinking about it, he never had a philosophy, nothing he could admit at least. Bill Walsh innovated, others too, did something cool with the parts they had. Coach T didn't see that as important. Egomaniac.

Cowher also left Tomlin a franchise QB in his prime, a stacked defense and two elite coordinators in Lebeau and Arians on the staff. Tomlin is leaving his successor, absolutely no assistant coaches, no QBs worth a shit and a complete rebuild ahead.

That playoff win % is so damn bad, especially since he had a HOF QB too.
