 Making rage quit. Exit out to no favorite team with a bottom. The YouTube team keep it clean. What's going on is engraving here with another video. And in this video, we are here to talk about another PFF list where it ranks the top head coaches in the league heading into the 2021 season. Because we talk about quarterbacks and running backs and receivers and offensive lines. All that good stuff. We talk about all that. But we don't talk about the head coaches enough. Now, I know team keep it clean. Y'all always talk about the head coaches because y'all don't miss a beat. But it's not talked about enough overall with everybody. So let's get into this list. Well, right before we get into it, please tell somebody you love them today. Tell somebody you ain't talked to in a while, you ain't heard from, they ain't heard from you. Just reach out to them and say, hey, what's up? I was just thinking about you. That's it. It ain't got to be no big deal. It ain't got to be nothing over the top. I was just thinking about you. That's it. And trust me, it makes a big difference. Because it makes a big difference when you send it out, but it definitely makes a big difference when you get that message. So give that to somebody today. Anyway, this list, the way that they make this list, let's just read. It says, with the 2021 NFL draft and free agency now, well, in the rearview mirror, OTAs and minicamp are giving us some much-needed clips of our favorite players in action. Well, those are over as well. In preparation for the 2021 NFL season, PFF has ranked the numerous position groups posted simulation results for the campaign and discussed enticing bets. We don't care about the betting part, skip that. Head coaches are generally out of the spotlight until week one hits, but let's bring them into the fold. In ranking the top head coaches heading into the 2021 season below, the criteria were quantitative, but unlike with offensive and defensive play callers, they were not folded into one all-encompassing rating system for betting or fantasy, the way each side of the ball is. The reasons for this are the relatively stochastic nature of fourth-down decisions, close games and other small sample events. Okay, so they gotta, what they're saying is they gotta take a different approach because the way you grade an offensive coordinator, defensive coordinator, or like I talked about with the players, you can't just grade a head coach by that because the head coach has everything to do with all of that because the players excel in the offense and defensive coordinators excel in their product of the head coach, enough times, but they're graded differently. Anyways, it's nonetheless a coach's ability to get more wins out of his team than wins above replacement of their roster, their ability to win games by multiple scores, as well as lose relatively few games by multiple scores. Sounds kind of for me. Anyway, and fourth-down decisions all factored into these rankings. So let's get into it. Number one, Andy Reed. And I don't think anybody can deny that Andy Reed would be the number one coach on this list. Why? Because like I always say, they should have really been to the last three Super Bowls if we're gonna be honest about it. They should have been to the last three, but they went to the last two. Yeah, they lost the last one, obviously, but they went, they went, they made it to where the 32 other teams wanna make it. Well, actually 31. But they made it to where every team wants to make it. Yeah, they didn't finish the job, but they made it to the dance. So he is obviously doing something right over there with the Kansas City Chiefs. So let's read the breakdown of him. We're not gonna read every breakdown just a few. Since prior to Super Bowl 54 in 2019, I wrote about how Andy Reed was a best head coach in football. Since then, he went on to win his first title, navigated a pandemic off season, helped his team to a 14 and two record during the 2020 regular season, won a playoff game with his backup quarterback playing in the second half and reached the third Super Bowl of his career. Oh yeah, he did the one for the Eagles where they lost to the Patriots. Oh man, so he lost to Tom Brady twice in the Super Bowl. Wow, I just realized that. Anyway, I mean everybody lost to Tom Brady in Super Bowl, but anyway, Andy Reed's Chiefs have never gone under their market season win total. And they are, again, the Super Bowl favorites going into the 2021 regular season. Hopefully it doesn't end up being them in the Super Bowl again. But anyway, Reed is now the standard by which the rest of the league is evaluated. That's true. Now he was thoroughly outwitted in Tampa Bay by Todd Bowles in Super Bowl 55 last season as the debts associated with playing much of the season with the Bang the Paw offensive line and failing to develop a third option behind Travis Kelsey and Terry Keele came due. Sounds kind of familiar. Anyway, but that loss represented the first time the Chiefs failed by multiple scores since 2017 and the first time they failed to score a touchdown since 2014. Wow. Long derided as a coach who struggled in the two and four minute offenses. That's true. A lot of people get on Andy Reed with his time. And the one and one who was better at winning blowouts than close games, Reed propelled his Chiefs to a 91 record in one score games in 2020. Well, that's really good, including winning the last seven games of the regular season by one score, not counting week 17 game of backups. With the rebuild offensive line and Steve Spignolo back to run the defense, look for the Chiefs to flirt with the 12 and a half wins. They are projected to receive by the market this fall. So Andy Reed, number one, just to sum all that up, Andy Reed, head honcho, number one, no problem here. I get it. I get it. There's no arguing with him being at the top. Anyway, number two, we ain't had to wait long to get to John Hubbell. Number two, head coach, number two head coach in the league, John Hubbell for the Baltimore Ravens. Let's see why. They said Hubbell is the second most tender coach in the NFL, I think behind Bill Belichick. And he will forever have a place in lists like these after getting a team quarterback by Joe Flacco across the finish line in 2012. Ooh, they took a shot at Flacco. They took a shot at Flacco, they sure did, man. So let's read that again. He will forever have a place in lists like these after getting a team quarterback by Joe Flacco across the finish line in 2012. What is most impressive about Hubbell is how much he's adapted to the needs of the NFL circa 2021. Whether it's by building defenses from back to front, adapting his team to suit the needs of a once in a generation talent at the quarterback position or listening to the math on decision making analytics. He went for 64% of the time when he should have in 2020. Oh, they have, they even have a breakdown when you should go for it. Anyway, amongst the league's highest rates, Hubbell is one of the best coaches in the league currently and has a Hall of Fame case to make. He does, he does. He's only had one losing season, technically. Now there were some seasons where the Ravens felt like losers, I mean, they were like what, nine and seven, eight and eight. And cause like the whole losing season thing, it is technically true. Like, oh yeah, this coach never had a losing season. This coach never had a losing season. But it'll be, it'll be coaches that got these records where it's like they went 500. So yeah, you didn't have a losing season but you ain't have a winning season either. But with Hubbell overall, his resume, it's a nice little resume. It's a nice resume. We waiting for that, that chip posts, Ray Lewis, Eric Reed, we waiting for it still. If they wanna do it this year, hey, no problem, do your thing, do your thing. But one thing about Hubbell, that you, no matter what side of the fence you are on about Hubbell. Cause I know some people love Hubbell, some people don't like Hubbell, some people think Hubbell's overrated, some people think Hubbell's underappreciated. It all depends on who you're talking to. But one thing about John Hubbell that you can never say is that his teams, they don't play for. You can't say that. You can never say that. Whatever team he has, whoever the players are, whoever the personnel is, they play hard for him. They really do. And the reason I, the biggest season, I know y'all remember, 2015, that season, it lets it be known. Like, yeah, these dudes play hard for John Hubbell. These guys, like everybody, man. Every single, at every single position, starters got hurt at every single position that season. Literally every single position, I think maybe except fullback. Every single position, flackers now, Justin Forset broke his own, he had offensive linemen out, defensive linemen, linebackers, cornerbacks, everything, everybody. They went five and 11, yes they did. Ugly record, losing record. But again, that's sort of the asterisk if everybody was out. But these guys only lost two games the entire season by more than one score. Two, they lost two games the entire season by more than one score. Only two for a team banged up, beat up, bruised up, injured up to do that. Like, they're supposed to be getting blown out every week. Every week, it's supposed to be getting blown out. But they didn't. Them boys fought, man. They fought. And yes, we do have some questions about some in-game adjustments under coach Harbaugh. Some plan Bs and Cs that when plan A isn't working, we do have some questions, every head coach has their question marks. And those are Harbaugh's for me at least. But overall, he has had a very, very successful career. And he's definitely way more on the winning side than he has been on the losing side. And you can't deny that. So Harbaugh and company, they are in a good position again this year to continue that, to continue it now. Harbaugh, this list might've looked a little bit different if they would've stuck with the quarterback who they took a shot at in that opening paragraph. If they would've stuck with him in 2018, things could've looked a lot different. And Harbaugh's name might've still been on here, but it would've been for a different team. Had they stuck with Joe Flacco in 2018, instead of pulling the plug? And you know they wanted to pull the plug, because they drafted them on the first round. They drafted them. And then on top of that, they just, I forgot who pointed it out to me, but when they did, I was like, oh, wow, that's true. They were doing everything that they possibly could to get Lamar out there on the field. Every week, they were coming out here, running these silly plays and some obvious plays. Sometimes they worked, sometimes they didn't, but, and that's when they were there. All right, Flacco could be moving down the field and they'd be like, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, Flacco. All right, hey, Lamar, come here, come here. Flacco, you go line up at wide receiver. I don't care what you do. They don't matter what you do. Just line up at wide receiver. At least like, get in the wide receiver stance. If you move, okay, whatever, ain't no big deal, but get in the wide receiver stance. Lamar, go out there, show your stuff, baby. Ah, and they would do that every single week until all of a sudden Flacco has this injury, this hip injury, when he gets hit in the Steelers game by, I think, Stefan Tuit. And now all of a sudden, it's like, oh, hard ball is probably like, oh man, Flacco's hurt. Now we gotta go with Lamar Jackson. Oh, wait a minute, I gotta look sad though, man. Flacco's hurt though. Lamar Jackson's are starting, you be okay, let me not smile too much. Cause you know, this was it for hard ball. This was it, everything was riding on Lamar Jackson. And what happened? He rolled Lamar Jackson to another contract extension for hard ball. He rolled Lamar Jackson to all these winning seasons, but now it's time to keep on going, man. So he is riding with Lamar Jackson, and he gotta have Lamar Jackson's back cause Lamar Jackson saved his back from falling in something. Deep dark fired head coaching waters. Now here again, we all know that if hard ball would have got fired that he would have had a job like that. But still, Lamar Jackson saved his job and allowed him to remain with the Ravens. So it's worked out. So hopefully, hopefully it can be taken to another level this year. So shout out to hard ball for being number two. Now, number three, we're not gonna read the breakdowns for the remaining coaches on this list, but we'll go over them. Number three, Matt LaFleur from the Green Bay Packers. And I think one of the reasons that he is ranked so high is because he's only been a head coach for two years. Now he does have one of the best quarterbacks in the league for sure. But still, hey, you still gotta get it done. Whether you got the greatest quarterback in the league, whether you got the worst quarterback, you still gotta get it done. So you can't blame somebody for their situation. And it's unfortunate when people do that. When they, oh, well, this guy only did this because he got this. Oh, this guy only did this. No, you can't blame him for his situation. He walked into a good situation, he took advantage of it. Okay, go for him. So Matt LaFleur is number three. And I think the reason why he's number three is because he doesn't have the hardware yet. He doesn't have that experience. And who knows what's gonna happen with Aaron Rodgers. But I think since he doesn't have that Super Bowl experience, he doesn't have the Super Bowl ring. He's been closed, but just kind of came up short. Both the past few years, wow. So I think that's the reason. But he definitely coaches his team to some great wins, great regular season so far. But just when it matters the most, that's when they end up falling short, unfortunately. And then next up, Sean McDermott from the Buffalo Bills. Same thing. The Buffalo Bills right now, all they do is win, win, win no matter what. They a tough team. They build a nice little roster, especially last year. And then, again, this year they looking good too. You know, the Bills are gonna be in it. But I think it's the same thing with him. Same thing with him. Young quarterback, well, different situation, but young quarterback, getting ready to get paid. Josh Allen, getting ready to make some money now. Josh Allen is nice, man. He is nice. Don't let anybody argue him back and forth about Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson fool you. Josh Allen is nice. I know some Ravens fans, they go back and forth with Bills fans and they're like, why? For what? Both quarterbacks be doing that thing, man. And both of them get paid a lot of money. But it's the same scenario, man. I think with Sean McDermott, no Super Bowl. All right, you ranked high now, heading into the season. But can you get that job done? Do we trust you as a head coach to get your team to the Super Bowl? Anything's possible, of course. So yeah, he's number four. Number five, Sean Payton. Now Sean Payton does have some Super Bowl experience. But recently, the teams, the Saints, they've been in the playoffs, but man, they have been going through some heartbreak in the playoffs. Like last year, I think, then they end up getting whooped. They won the first game against the Bears, I believe. What was it the Bears? I think it was the Bears. And then the second game, they got blown out by, was it the Bucks? Did they play the Bucks three times last year? I think they did. But anyway, they've been going through some heartbreakers. But now you head into this season. Yeah, you still look like a coach, but now we've seen you in sample sizes here and there without life without Drew Brees. We've seen it in little bits and pieces, but we haven't seen it for the entirety of a season. We've seen it for five games with Teddy Bridge. What do you win, five or no? We've seen a little James Winston here and there. We've seen Taysom Hill here, but now that's it. Now you're rolling with James Winston. Because they're not gonna start no Taysom Hill. But now you're about to roll with James Winston. How good is this team really gonna be now? So, Sean Payton is definitely about to get tested. Bill Belichick, whoa, wow. Him being this low, that is a shocker. Heading into 2021, that's a shocker to me. I didn't even, when I've been going over this list, I didn't even think about Bill Belichick. But now that I see, he's not like, wow, he's pretty low. Okay, let's read the breakdown for this. He said, I'll admit there's some legacy built in here. As Belichick has lagged behind for the past decade in terms of making correct decisions on four downs, with the 2020 Patriots going forward on just 39% of admissible situations. That ranked 24th in football and the team surrendered 0.5 expected points in the process. That said, last year's team earned just the 21st most wins above replacement in the NFL, but still managed to win seven games in a division where the Bills and Dolphins reached double-digit victories. It remains to be seen if they can win with Cam Newton and Mac Jungler moving forward, but if someone can, it's likely Belichick. Okay, so it's based off of what have you done for me lately? Okay, so that makes me understand it a bit better now. Still pretty low, but I think that they factor in the current team that they have the quarterbacks and again, the fourth downs that we read about early on in the video, they take them fourth down seriously. And the points that they gave up when they didn't go fourth on fourth down. So, yeah, and with Mac Jones, I just, my biggest question for the Patriots is is he gonna stick with that number 50? Will they do that? I would love to see it. It'd be ugly, but I would love to see it. Anyway, number seven, Kevin Stafanski. Stafanski from the Cleveland Browns. Now he, wow, he's number seven, boom. First year on the scene, number seven, and he came to, he got this team in a pandemic year, inherited this team. So he was limited on what he could do. He was limited on what he could implement, but he did a phenomenal job given the situation. Phenomenal job, like because there was really no off season. But the fact that the Browns, they started off a little bit slow, but then as the season went along, they picked it up. They started getting better and better, stronger and stronger. Even lost Nick Chubb for a big chunk of the season, but they still kept rolling. Then they got them back. They just, they did their thing. They lost in a heartbreaker. Oh, heartbreaker to the Chiefs in that playoff game. Oh, that was so tough. It was four down and all, and they let Tyreek Hill, like you, that's, I know like, you don't want to leave anybody open, but to let Tyreek Hill loosen, oh man. Oh, that was, I'm about to go watch and highlight of that play, man. But that was a painful one. Ooh, that was tough. So, but they definitely got something special over there. They got something special over there, and they, what they're building over there, just gonna make the AFC North that much more fun. Oh yeah, well, two coaches in the AFC North, there's also two coaches in the AFC East. But we out here, man. We are out here. One thing I'm surprised about, I don't see, I don't see Tampa Bay coach Bruce Arians. I don't see him on here. And they only, looks like they only did the top seven. So, I guess that's that. So anyway, shout out to PFF, shout out to John Harbaugh, and please, John Harbaugh, give them a reason this year to push you even higher. You know what you need to do. Team Keep It Clean, I love y'all. I appreciate y'all. We out.
