Super Bowls not as a Head Coach
[edit]I think it might be worth mentioning somewhere what coaches have won a Super Bowl as something other than a head coach. I know Marvin Lewis got one with Baltimore, I think there are a couple others I can't think of at the moment.Zdawg1029 (talk) 02:18, 21 September 2013 (UTC)
- Just thought of some more. Shanahan won as an OC with San Francisco. Mike Tomlin won one as an assitant with Tampa Bay. Belichik has two as DC with the Giants, Rex Ryan one with Baltimore as D Line coach, Kubiak one with SF as in 1994 as QB coach and two in Denver as OC and QB coach and I think there is more. I am considering adding this information somewhere on this page or making a new page that shows what current NFL Coaches have won Super Bowl's and any coaching level. There is not any page that says what current coaches have won SB's not as a head coach.Zdawg1029 (talk) 18:28, 21 September 2013 (UTC)
- I have created and submitted a page with the edit I was requesting for consideration so disregard my request for edit.Zdawg1029 (talk) 16:43, 27 September 2013 (UTC)

This page title violates MOS:CURRENTLY / WP:PRECISELANG, but there's a separate page for List of National Football League coaches. Before I propose an actual page move, I wonder what to rename the other page to. Head coaches by wins? Games coached? – Muboshgu (talk) 04:19, 25 December 2018 (UTC)
This page sucks
[edit]The coaches should be listed by day of hire, not the year. Please edit. 47.20.18.57 (talk) 17:55, 15 December 2023 (UTC)
- It's basically the same thing, they were hired for x season. Hey man im josh (talk) 12:58, 23 September 2024 (UTC)
- No, it's not the same thing. 47.20.19.226 (talk) 02:52, 15 December 2024 (UTC)
- why does the exact date of hire need to be listed? Assadzadeh (talk) 04:52, 15 December 2024 (UTC)
- Majority of them are just going to be January of their respective year of hire too. ~ Dissident93 (talk) 12:59, 15 December 2024 (UTC)
- The NBA head coach one is sorted by exact date 47.20.19.226 (talk) 22:34, 27 December 2024 (UTC)
- The page should aim to be as accurate as possible. If you sort by hire a coach hired midseason could be above a coach hired offseason. 47.20.19.226 (talk) 22:35, 27 December 2024 (UTC)
- I still don't think it matters, because most people accessing this page are more interested in seeing who is the coach for each team, rather than the hire date. However, if you feel strongly enough that it should be listed, then do the research and add the exact date for each coach. Assadzadeh (talk) 22:50, 27 December 2024 (UTC)

Age or DOB
[edit]I think it would be useful if this page had a column that allowed readers to compare coaches ages by listing either the age or date of birth of the coaches. rogerd (talk) 03:14, 23 September 2024 (UTC)
- I'm tentatively opposed to the idea. While it's a neat thing to be aware of, I'm not sure it would actually improve the list in any way. I also think it would be weird considering that none of the lists I checked out at Category:Lists of National Football League head coaches by team display their ages in any context. Even Pro Football Reference doesn't list their ages, which I'm actually kind of surprised about. Hey man im josh (talk) 13:02, 23 September 2024 (UTC)
- I've thought about adding it in the past, but outside of being the oldest and youngest (which both are mentioned in the lead anyway) it's not really key information that needs to be summarized. Their ages can easily be seen on their respective pages if needed. ~ Dissident93 (talk) 12:58, 15 December 2024 (UTC)
