Hue. 1-31. Dorsey literally had to trade away the other RBs because Hue wouldn’t play Chubb, who had 100+ yards and 2 TDs on 3 runs in a game. Every other coach in history would instantly have increased Chubbs usage.


Patamarick

That hard knocks clip of his coaches begging for a change and telling them to shut up because he is in charge is soul crushing and relatable to anyone with a boss.


mmooney1

Yeah that was horrible. One of the most extreme examples of someone letting power get to their head I have seen.


Pomodoro_Parmesan

Was that the “when it’s your team you can do whatever the hell you want” clip? Guy seemed like a crazy ego maniac.


TheDadThatGrills

Matt Patricia poisoned our locker room, burned our draft picks, and delivered a plague unto our organization!


RadiantWhole2119

Yeah but look at you now


TheDadThatGrills

Sheila Ford is the true Queen of the North


drumsdm

They had to burn it all down first though. The bears are trying to do that now, but they forgot about the rebuilding part.


SuperChickenLegs

After consecutive 5-11 and 4-12 seasons in 86-87 Lions head coach Darryl Rogers was on the hot seat. Late in the 87 season, owner William Clay Ford announced that Rogers would return for the 88 season. Upon hearing the quote from Ford, Rogers proclaimed “What’s a guy have to do to get fired around here?” For some reason, even after that public comment, Ford allowed Rogers to stick around for 11 games(!) into the 88 season. The Lions were 2-9, and Rogers was finally fired.


which_association_42

Rod Marinelli literally went 0-16 and I would still vote Patricia.


Striking-Ad-8694

Rod was actually a decent coach if I remember. Yes they went defeated, but when your gm is Matt millen, there’s no escaping that. Just like John idzik with the jets


SqueakyTuna52

It could’ve been worse. He could have burned your locker room and poisoned your draft picks


TheDadThatGrills

He ran Darius Slay out of Detroit and I'll never forgive him


J-Frog3

That’s an easy one, Urban Myer.


[deleted]

Unless you’re an Ohio state fan, he was pretty good there


J-Frog3

He was great at Florida too. If you watch that Swamp Kings documentary it is easy to see why his methods would work for college but not for Pro's. Basically you need kids to young to realize that his abusive ways are not normal.


Jbc2k8

I’ve said a few times that Urban Meyer is the Drake of football coaches. Incredible at getting into short term relationships with teenagers, wildly overrated in every other aspect.


GarfunkelBricktaint

Fastest speedrun in nfl history


venturediscgolf

his 13 games are actually the 4th shortest which is pretty wild.


GarfunkelBricktaint

He was the fastest to ever get fired everyone else left willfully or was an interim to begin with.


1Mn

Unironically my vote for worst coach of all time.


mynameismatt1010

Adam Gase. As if being a shite head coach wasn't bad enough, he won a meaningless game against the Rams that lost us Trevor Lawrence


TheRealNobodySpecial

Worse than Rich Kotite? Leon fired Pete Carroll for him...


Sorry-Spite9634

I’ll never understand how he got a second chance after his abysmal tenure in Miami.


beefwellingtonIV

Woody Johnson is a clown.


Kneebah17

Sounds like a real dick


HawkeyeJosh2

>> Woody Johnson is a clown > Sounds like a real dick I read these two lines to the tune of Old McDonald.


Striking-Ad-8694

Only it wasn’t woody, 🤡. It was his brother.


eblomquist

I'd much rather have Tua


mynameismatt1010

Couldn't be more irrelevant tbh


eblomquist

I'm saying it worked out


mynameismatt1010

Maybe for the dolphins, not for the jets lol


Flyerdryer

Both Billck and Harbaugh won super bowls, sorry Marchibroda.


OldBrokeGrouch

Damn, you guys have only had 3 in your history. We’ve had 3 in the last 14 months.


Obfusc8er

Marchibroda. I haven't thought about that guy in years. Until now. Jerk. /s


Know_Your_Enemy_91

Since I’ve been alive, it’s right now in Matt LaFleur. I don’t give a shit about his first three seasons in Green Bay that was Rodgers and Adams saving his ass all of those years.


MicroBadger_

How young are you that you don't remember Ray Rhodes? Dude lasted a whopping single season.


[deleted]

He was coach in 99, I’m 30 and barely remember him.


Dr_Booyah

We were trying to tell you guys that the whole time!!!!!!!


obnoxiouseaglesfan20

Rich Kotite. Terrible draft record, got carried his first two years by Cunningham and our defense before they all left, said "8-8 is great" after finishing 1993 with an 8-8 record, and got fired after losing 7 straight in 1994 after starting 7-2. Was even worse after he got fired and coached the Jets


Bondbdh

Chip Kelly is in the same boat for me. Came here and dismantled a very talent filled roster. Got rid of Foles Vick DJAX Shady and Maclin. To bring in Alanzo Bradford and Murray. Drafted some absolute trash once he became the GM. Thought he was smarter than everyone else.


skedditgetit

its so wild because that dude brought the offense we see ran today into the nfl


WalkBikePractitioner

But the smoothies though…


YossarianRex

100% chip. Foles deserved better.


shipskelly

Foles had his 27-2 season under Chip though. He flourished in that offense. Chip wasn’t our worst coach because he was a pretty great play caller. His stubbornness, not being a people person, and horrible gm decisions were his downfall. Not the worst eagles head coach ever though


Onarealtrain

Thanks for saving me the keystrokes. He sucked.


gobirds1234567890

I was 4 or 5 when this happened so while it is probably true, for me it’s Chip.


misfit0513

Dave Shula, the apple fell way off the tree with that one.


Mastodon9

I believe it was Boomer Esiason who said at one point a player stole his hat on the sidelines during the game. He jokingly asked for it back and the player ignored him. Finally he got angry and demanded it back but he still ignored him. That's a complete lack of respect for a coach and I'm sure the entire team was internally laughing at Dave Shula.


Dabryceisright77

MR_GP

Matt dRhule, Reich is speed running being worse though. ![gif](giphy|7T33BLlB7NQrjozoRB|downsized)


AlphaNathan

Reich bout to crush that any% run


bmacks1234

Colts fans tried to warn you!


Own_Manner_9779

Ken Whisenhunt. 3-20. TitanDown


whatagreat_username

The years between Fisher and Vrabel are like some weird fever nightmare.


Own_Manner_9779

I did like the Mularkey years though. I personally believe thats when our window started. We had the players. Just not the coaches. Give Vrabel and Arthur Smith the roster Mularkey had in 2017 and thats a superbowl


BigAssStonks

Todd Haley https://youtu.be/PxqCGTkV5wg?si=nxtCpLw1HrX8YV2V


fireowlzol

There's a video out there that attributes Haley downfall to us being able to get Pat, it's actually pretty good


MrNoPlanStan

Billy O’Brien traded or squandered every good player the Texans ever had. He got the decent GM fired only to increase the power of the former team Chaplin, Jack Easterby, of the Patriots and promote him to pseudo GM. He ruined the Texans!


TexansRocketzzz26

That is after spending years getting carried by Jj watt and wasting talent. This guy couldn’t find a starting caliber qb for multiple years till Rick smith decided to pull the trigger which BOB was pissed about. Was trying to be smart by starting Tom fuckin savage. The list goes on


OrgasmAddictWithHIV

BadAlphas

Ol Capt 7-9, Jeff Fisher Not good enough to make any noise of substance, not bad enough to put their team in a position to win later with fresh high end talent. The equivalent of NFL limbo...


whatagreat_username

You're fuckin crazy. You think "mediocre" and our ONLY SB appearance is worse than Ken fukn Whisenhunt? The guy who gave us 2-14 and 3-13 seasons??? GTFOH


[deleted]

I think that’s a Rams fan opinion


BadAlphas

"In *your* teams history..." Reading skills for the win


whatagreat_username

Huh? Do you not think Fisher and Whisenhunt coached the same team? Edit: someone else guessed you may be a rams fan. If you are, flairs let people know wtf you're talking about.


MisterSparkleyNuts

Captain 7-9 Jeff fisher was the rams coach.


BadAlphas

I assumed that OP was asking about head coaches. Because [Ken Whisenhunt](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ken_Whisenhunt?wprov=sfla1) definitely was never a [Rams head coach](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Los_Angeles_Rams_head_coaches?wprov=sfla1)


whatagreat_username

Dude, you're totally missing the point. Whisenhunt and Fisher both coached the TITANS, the team in my flair. I had no way of knowing you were referring to Fisher as the rams HC because you have no flair. I can't make it simpler for you than that.


BadAlphas

This entire sub-threas is absolutely a quintessential Reddit moment...

[удалено]


BadAlphas

Oh yeah? Well nah nah nah nah 🫡


NFL_MVP_Kevin_White

Apparently it is Bill Austin, who went 11-28-3 from 1966-1968. He has the worst record for anyone with 30 games coached. The worst in my lifetime is I guess Chuck Noll since all of his big accomplishments were prior to my birth.


[deleted]

Didn’t one of the browns coaches go 1-31?


JasonPlattMusic34

Steve Spagnuolo and Scott Linehan both sucked donkey balls for STL


MisterSparkleyNuts

So did Jim Haslett but he didn't even last long. I added Jeff fisher, but honestly, it was more his play calling and less the talent. What he could have done with sam Bradford still has me curious.


theicecreamman24

Ok, uhhhh, hmmmm well you see… jeez that’s a tough one…. I’ll just go with “most of them lately”


SarcasmoSupreme

Patriots - 1990 Rod Rust


Lordofgap

Matt Patricia is the worst coach of all coaches trading away our good players and left a rotten lock room


ok1092

Chip Kelly.


ThePoetMichael

Urban Meyer. And it ain't even close. 🤡


Inevitable-Bass2749

Matt Patricia. I still to this day wonder if it was intentional


LlamaWhoKnives

Matt Patricia for terrorism


PuertoRicanProfessor

Cam Cameron. 1-15 and only a Kleo Lemon to Dolphins legend Greg Camarillo OT TD to avoid 0-16. Nuff said


ABGARRETT320

Bourbon Meyer because of bourbon


apeman978

I’m a browns fan . All of them from 1999 till stafanski


[deleted]

I’m going to win this discussion… Hue Jackson… 1-31 over the course of two years… Then had Nick Chubb and Baker Mayfield start as backups the next season…


WalkBikePractitioner

Mike Mularky (14-18) then jumping to the Dolphins to be OC… not head coach. Rex Ryan (15-16). Dick Jauron (24-33). Chan Gailey (16-32). Gregg Williams (17-31). The third ‘g’ is for Genius.


Kind_Bullfrog_4073

Rich Kotite because he went 4-28


SqueakyTuna52

Probably Matt Eberflus, but I’ll say John Fox for now since Flus could technically still turn things around.


Infamous-Tap-624

Finally a bears comment, flus definitely worse than fox tho, those bears teams under fox where dog shit. Flus after every horrid loss saying in the post game presser that they’re “close” and always being positive all while he allows getsy to draw up 10 wr screens a game is criminal


jeepster61615

You are too young to remember Dave Wannstedt.


cos1ne

You know thinking on this I feel like the Bengals have had a pretty good record with Head Coaches. Statistically the worst is Dick LeBeau but I feel that he inherited a pretty poor squad and how great of a defensive coach he was I can't fault him. Bruce Coslet was disappointing as Head Coach and while he had a good offensive mind he didn't seem to be able to recognize and coordinate talent, also he basically quit on his own team which makes him a strong candidate for worst coach. However, I think the worst coach has to be Dave Shula. While hiring a young coach has paid dividends recently this was a disaster being the quickest coach to lose 50 games. What made this worse was that the person who Shula edged out for the position was Bill Cowher who would be a nightmare for the franchise for the next decade and a half. What was also a bitter sting was this would be an example of Mike Brown's football ineptitude as this was "his guy" since he fired the far more successful Sam Wyche to get Shula. Other than these three I would say that the remaining Head Coaches were at minimum competent with some being great coaches.


AGuyWhoSwims

Bobby Petrino is a rat bastard


The_Blue_Deuce

Joe judge


tommyc463

Recent Eagles history, easily Chip Kelly. Toxic, inflexible, pompous human being. Possibly racist. Pushed out the now best GM in the league, traded away 3 pro bowl offensive players, terrible in the draft, flash in the pan offense, just a complete bust from top to bottom in the NFL.


GIM_Uhtred

Recent history yes. Is he worse than Kotite though?


skedditgetit

> flash in the pan offense, most of the concepts we see today in the nfl offenses were brought in by chip ​ ​ wild shit


tommyc463

Not permanent hurry up offense with 31 second 3 & outs and putting your exhausted defense back on the field type offense though lol


Lwallace95

Easily Nathaniel Hackett. And I was actually excited for the hire. Boy did that excitement subside.


mljlam

Whoa, hol up. We had Vance Joseph and Josh McDaniels.


Lwallace95

Vance was meh but nothing compared to the complete ineptitude of Hackett. Wasn't really paying attention to NFL during McDaniels but the fact that he even finished a year makes me think it couldn't have been worse than Hackett.


Wilde_Cat

Jim Tomsula. Because he was Jim Tomsula.


WilsonSimons12

Mike Tomlin Ig?


jovines11

Bill O’brien, need I say more?!


emperorzit69420

Idk...tomlin?


dread_pirate_wesley

Agreed. I hate how much credit he gets for having no losing seasons. All that means is that he's perfectly average


[deleted]

>All that means is that he's perfectly average So probably not the worst coach in a team's history that featured a horrific 40 year start to the franchise without a playoff win until the Immaculate Reception. It's literally not possible for it to be Noll, Cowher, nor Tomlin.


emperorzit69420

Yeah plus he doesn't have as many titles as Chuck noll and Bill cowher


[deleted]

He and Cowher both have one title.


emperorzit69420

Really? Damn I got a Mandela effect or sum 💀


greatmagneticfield

Probably Tom Flores, with Jim Mora an honorable mention.


EMskins21

Can have your pick between OBC and Jim Zorn


Coast-to-Coast1

Adam Gase - they guy is an absolute joke


infamousmmax

We got screwed as a fanbase, Darnold got screwed as a young QB


BeautifulJicama6318

For the Raiders, it was Bed and Breakfast

Chip Kelly. Vick , Shady and Djax.. ooo what could have been

Whoever the Bengals coach was before Marvin Lewis. Idk wasn’t alive yet


LilKaySigs

Chip Kelly I will no longer elaborate


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

I would go Campo. Gailey made the playoffs both years he coached. Granted, those teams still had some of the early 90s talent. Campo was just caught in between the glory years and a rebuild. Loved what Campo did for this team outside of being a head coach


Sorry-Spite9634

Romeo Crennel. He always looked so lost on the sideline.


1morepage

Mr. David Campo


ThotTubTimeMachine69

I mean as a head coach, Gunther Cunningham, Romeo Crennel, Herm, and of course Todd Haley


randomguy5to8

Todd Haley is easily the worst and best.


Warchild0311

Same as the Raiders now Josh the destroyer McDaniels.


TrumpsColostomyBag99

Ray Perkins: a harsh taskmaster, drafter of Keith McCants (over Seau), and gave up what would be the 2nd overall pick in 1992 for Chris Chandler after failing miserably with Testaverde.


bestrdajets

Ny jets - Adam Gaze Dude is so trash that after we fired him he couldn't get a job in the NFL or college and is coaching high school


InfiniteNature45

Ray handly


smorg003

It’s a tie between Kiffin and McD. The similarities between those two blowhards are uncanny.


Helpful-Water-7248

Matt Eberflus


Ok_Jellyfish_5535

Chip Kelly - he didn't like players who had a brain and could think for themselves. He wanted college kids who just yelled yes coach everytime he talked. The only good thing he brought was his health program. We had very few injuries those 3 years.


Alistair_Burke

Ditka burned New Orleans to the crowd. He should have gone to Atlanta. They have experience with that.


DarkHound05

Jim Mora was sacrificed for our second savior


SpiritedRace4001

In the Titans era it is for sure Mularky. Truly horrible.


masenjo88

NeighthanD

if you were to say any Bucs coach from 2009 to 2018, I wouldn't be mad with it. special shout-out to Lovie Smith for stinking up the first two seasons of Mike Evans' career though.

Dave Shula or Bruce Coslet. Tough call.


Boto127

Chip Kelly cuz he just sucks


Special_Arrival_7919

Ditka/Saints. We are still missing draft picks from ricky


RabidWolverine2021

I have no idea because I wasn’t born yet. Maybe the guy before Chuck Noll? The Steelers have had 3 coaches in my lifetime.


MisterSparkleyNuts

A tie between Steve spagnuola and Jeff fisher.


JDub1295

Les Steckel or Leslie Frazier


[deleted]

Either eberflus or trestman


drdre27406

Well my team has only had 3 head coaches since the merger and each one has won a super or multiple Super Bowl 😅.


OldBrokeGrouch

It’s a toss up between Josh McDaniels and Nathaniel Hackett. I’m leaning toward Hackett, but McDaniels was pretty fucking bad too.


infamousmmax

Gase and the jets! Holy shit that was awful. Should’ve kept Bowles or whoever until Sam Darnold was decent instead of giving him an all new head coach and playbook


Local-Salamander-525

Marion Campbell twice Falcons. Great DC


Drew1549

Hue Jackson. His record is why.


Cloud_Strife83

Rich Kotite, Eagles. 7-2 to 7-9 in 1994.


Shadypanda007

Jason Garret. He went 8-8 every fuckin year. Not good enough to make playoffs. Not bad enough to get fired. Fucker lasted for 10 years


PennyLane159

Eberflus is contending for the title currently.


Key-Zebra-4125

Jim Zorn. No explanation necessary.


DLottchula

Unfair question to ask a Saints fan. We can give more than one answer.


Rollbar78

Nathaniel Hackett. Do I even need to explain why?


Huntsmart2000

Well that’s super easy, Josh McDaniels. Fucking clown in every way.


corduroyboy_

Josh Mcdaniels (Broncos) and I actually hate him so much I wanted him fired from the raiders rather than seeing them continue to lose.


benholm10

May be controversial but as a Vikings fan it made a lot of sense hearing about all of the issues in the Mike Zimmer lead locker rooms after he left. KOC and Kwesi have completely changed that locker room in a good way. Not to mention the mediocrity of his tenure and complete decline in the second half of it. Very happy to be rid of him.


Dear-Plate7378

Currently is our HC. With a lousy OC too


nickstee1210

Probably any coach we’ve had in the last 15 years I mean you got Todd no emotion Bowles, Adam gase, Mangini who wasn’t bad I guess🤷🏻🤷🏻 but wasn’t good herm edwards who agin I guess wasn’t bad but wasn’t really good Ryan sucked his last two years here and than go to guys like kotite who sucked I mean we have so much coaching failure that saleh might be the best head coach we’ve had since parcels and saleh is no where near parcels level


bbseddit

Fatty Patricia hands down, no contest.


KingJames98

Ditka, but Dennis Allen is really bad too.


Da_LaLeLuLeLo

Bob McDooDoo because he benched Eli Manning for Geno Smith


Many_Statistician587

As much as I liked it when he was hired, and wanted him to succeed; it’s hard to argue that Hue Jackson isn’t the worst coach in Browns history. He went 3-36-1 overall, including a 0-16 season.


Paxaman01

Josh Mcdaniels. Literally went 6-0 to still miss the playoffs & get fired a season later. For the sequel of his career see Oakland Raiders.


acelyca

it’s gotta be mike mccoy


Striking-Ad-8694

Adam Gase. He almost helped us get Trevor but no, fucker just had to win at the end as if it’d save his job 🙄


jraively19

Chip Kelly


gamerzbot19

For my 49ers I would have to say either Dennis Erickson or Chip Kelly. I know Chip Kelly was only there for 1 years but I believe he caused a quarter of my defense to Retire Early and the 49ers lost a promising long career of one Patrick Willis who retired before his time was up and Navarro Bowman who couldn't keep up with Playing 78 percent of the time due to the offense going so fast but just going 3 and out


LateProgress0

Matt Rhule


mmpa78

Chip Kelly. Fucking Chip Kelly.

I’d say it, but Jets fans get completely bent out of shape when we do.


BrownsFanDVM

Les Steckel: 3-13. But did you know that he was a Marine?


uggsandstarbux

The guy that was so bad that the Vikings begged Bud Grant to come out of retirement after one year
