Lovie as a coach

As I can figure there are 8 coaches including Lovie who had held their jobs since the beginning of 2004:

Marvin Lewis 42-43 no ps
Lovie 48-37 ps 2-2 1 sb app
Del Rio 48-38 ps 1-2
Belichick 67-19 ps 8-3 2 sb app 1 win
Fisher 40-46 ps 0-2
Coughlin 52-34 ps 4-3 1 sb win
Reid 49-39 ps 6-4 1 sb app
Fox 47-38 ps 2-2 1 sb app

Looking a those numbers, Lovie looks pretty good. He is up there with some of the big names in coaching so far as wins, postseason record, and superbowl appearances. I would also argue that the bears had the least talent out of any of these teams with maybe the exception of the Bengals and Jaguars. Looking at these numbers, I suddenly have a different appreciation for Lovie and the job he does in getting the most out of his players. Just food for thought.

Look for El & my previews of the Bears v. Cincy game coming soon.
