| | Norv Turner. Underrated: Jon Gruden (it seems like nobody notices that the Bucs made the playoffs last year). The most underrated coach, outside of the head coaching ranks, is Jim Johnson.

| most overrated - Jeff Fisher. Good coach no doubt, but not as good as national media portrays him to be. He's not a top 5 NFL HC.
most underrated - Tom Coughlin. The SB just cements an already accomplished career.

| The Mad Dog (5/15/2008) most overrated - Jeff Fisher. Good coach no doubt, but not as good as national media portrays him to be. He's not a top 5 NFL HC. No current NFL head coach has been employed for a longer period of time by one team. I'm not saying he's top five, but overrating him is a mistake.

| I will disagree with you {I just re-read the thread- I DISAGREE WITH MAD DOG, NOT THE CLOT TROLL(APTLY NAMED )} about jeff fisher- he gets a lot from his team of nobodys. Couglin could have JUST AS EASILY made a quick departure in the playoffs, or missed them entirely. do you guys think his defense saved his a$$ (the pick against brett favre) In fact that giants team was the luckiest to advance to a superbowl since pittsburgh in that luck filled season. herm edwards john gruden and wade phillips are underrated to me or does everybody already think they all are great? How about romeo crennel and brian billick? Our man here in jax Jack DelRio is a bit underrated- he was anchored by useless Quarterbacks at the beginning for a while there both in brunell an leftwich, but he is bullying through the league now. and is it possible to say that dungy is underrated. The pundits seem to look just at his talent pool from bucs and clots. These were no doubt good teams but good coaching of good players is important.

| Belichick is the most overrated.
He was a loser before Tom Brady.

| Mine is Herm Edwards. He plays to win the game, but he doesn't win very many, and never the big game. I was watching him on NFL network. He just seems like an annoying person to be around.

| | I would say Mike Martz is over-rated. Why is he so highly regarded? Norv Turner is also a terrible coach. |

| | For a head coach I agree with TMD, Jeff Fisher. Norv Turner is a terrible head coach, but he's generally viewed that way. Fisher had four out of five years where he took an over-the-cap team to the playoffs, and he did well last year, but he mostly just limped along. He's only had five seasons out of 13 over .500, not exactly Bill Walsh stats, yet he's always described as one of the top coaches.

| | I would also go with Fisher as overrated. I don't think he is a bad coach, but just not as good as everyone claims. His overall record is pretty mediocre. Also, though not currently employed and mainly based on his absolutely abyssmal playoff record, Shcottenheimer. I am beginning to wonder about Gruden, but I would be willing to give him some time to see how he can improve the Bucs. Yes, they made the playoffs last year, but really they almost won by defualt. That division sucks. Atlanta and Carolina were awful last year. http://www.pro-football-reference.com/coaches/FishJe0.htm Here is fisher's record. 538 winning percentage, 3 divisional titles in 16 years (about what would be expected at random or just by chance), 5-5 in the playoffs. Average division finish is 2.4. There really is nothing spectacular in his resume. The only thing that stands out that separates him from others is the one SB appearance. |
