Very underrated

The Harbaughs should be ahead of the likes of Tomlin and Coughlin, IMO.

Gus Bradley is way too high
How is Allen last, behind Pettine, Gruden, Zimmer and O'Brien?

Agreed - for what godforsaken reason is Gus Bradley doing ahead of him? Egregious.

Bill needs his own tier

So taking a team from relative obscurity to Super Bowl champs in 3 years isn't impressive to you?

Tomlin seems too low. But I dunno, they've missed the playoffs lately.
Gus Bradley is well thought of in the NFL, that's why he's at 19. I mean, Jacksonville started off as one of the worst teams in NFL history last year and they didn't give up. They got better as the season went on.
And Jason Garrett being down at 30

Reid at #4?
Posted on 8/26/14 at 2:37 pm to taylork37
I hate the 49ers and Harbaugh, but he's top tier. Having him at #8 is utterly ridiculous.

Shiiiiiit, Chip Kelly may be too low. The Eagles will win a Super Bowl sometime in the next three to five seasons.
