Coaches matter—so much so, we went double length this week to break down the tiers of NFL coaches. More than probably any major sport, NFL head coaches dictate success (and squander potential). From "Proven Winners" to "Garbage," we rank every single team's coach. We let Jonathan Gannon have a mulligan to get things started (05:15). The win/loss record of Sean McDermott should give him job security, but is he actually on the hot seat ? Maybe (14:00). Also, did y'all check the subtitle of the episode? Devon's standing on business here. We surprise ourselves talking about Zac Taylor and the Bengals (22:40). We disagree on Sean Payton (Alex can't stand him, so there's that), and we hash out what to do with Jim Harbaugh (51:30)—big-time NCAA success, but also good career success in the NFL. Talking Kevin O'Connell means Alex has to put his bias aside, and Devon gives KOC the same props (01:02:00). Plus, what do you do with Todd Bowles getting a second shot at HC? Finally, our Out of Bounds Play this week is about the legacy of Patrick Mahomes the Red Raider (01:22:00).
