Top Ten NFL Head Coaches

Here is my list of the ten most crafty, genius, and fiery, head coaches. Oh yeah and winning helps their rank too.

10. Jon Gruden: "Chucky" as he's known around the league for his hot headed temper and wild antics. Keyshawn Johnson actually thought he could chew out Gruden once, he didn't make that mistake twice. I thought Gruden was gonna kill him, literally. But despite that, Gruden knows how to craft high powered offenses with little talent. Look what he did with the Raiders the year before they won the Super Bowl. Know look what he's doing with the Buccaneers. Making Jeff Garcia look good at what he does, shockingly.

9. John Fox: Yeah I know, your like enough with the Johns, but it was just coincidence. Next John Madden right? Well for current coaches, John Fox has taken the Carolina Panthers to the Super Bowl in 2003 and the NFC Championship in 2005. He lost both, but he has helped get the Panthers some well needed recognition. They are not viewed like the Houston Texans or Cleveland Browns, people actually respect them.

8. Lovie Smith: Hard to respect a football coach named Lovie. But he has probably dealt with that his whole life, and earned some respect. Bears fans love him now because he turned around their team in a short amount of time. He had them in the playoffs in 2005 and in the Super Bowl in 2006. They lost to an amazing Indianapolis Colts team with a man named Peyton Mannning, who has wanted a ring his whole career, but kept coming up short against the Patriots. Who knows how the Bears will fare this year as they are 5-3 and Kyle Orton will be out for a week or more. Coaching will make the difference during this critical second half of the football season.

7. Mike Shanahan: Hasn't won a Super Bowl in nine years, but still a great coach that gets his team to the playoffs and AFC championships quite frequently. More of a conservative coach than most, but it got him where he is today.

6. Jim Zorn: After taking over for Joe Gibbs (those are big shoes to fill) has done an admirable job fielding a good team this year. They are likely to find a playoff spot and may be a sleep pick to win it all this year.

5. Andy Reid: A very great coach that has taken his team to the Super Bowl but came up short against the New England Patriots. His Eagles have a lot of talent this year they just are capitalizing. They will be in a battle with the Cowboys for a possible third playoff spot in the NFC.

4. Tom Coughlin: Won the Super Bowl last year and has fielded an almost better team this year some have said. Hard to believe considering they lost Michael Strahan and Osi Umenyiora on defense.

3. Bill Belichick: As hard as it is for me to want to put him on this list, I kinda half to. Considering all his Super Bowl rings and manage to win without Tom Brady. Belichick is considered to be one of the shadier coaches thanks to the Spy Gate controversy. Now we'll see if he can win a ring without Tom Brady.

2. Tony Dungy: Yes they are 4-4 at the moment. But they have a great coach who can turn any team around and won a Super Bowl two years ago. Don't forget he's got one of the greatest quarterback and wide receiver combos to play the game.

1. Jeff Fischer: I am putting him at number one because he is undefeated right now and that is without Vince Young. Kerry Collins is winning games for him! He doesn't have a team of superstars, they all just play well as a team. It will be interesting to see if they can stay undefeated the whole year.
