In 11 NFL seasons as head coach, his record stands at 79-104. He has made the playoffs twice and is 1-2 in playoff games.
Does he deserve another head coach opportunity?

Sounds like someone like Sam Wyche. I don’t think I’d be interested.
Kyle Shannahan?
Man this could be anybody. I have no idea. The record sort of speaks for itself unless it is an ass organization. Who is it?
This is so unbelievable. How does he have _that_ record. The playoffs record doesn't add up either. It's possible ChatGPT is making this up though.

which NFL coach has a 79-104 record historically?
Quote:
As of my last update in January 2022, Mike McCarthy had a historical record of 79-104 as an NFL head coach. McCarthy previously coached the Green Bay Packers for over a decade from 2006 to 2018 before becoming the head coach of the Dallas Cowboys in 2020. Please verify this information since records may have changed after my last update.
No way are those numbers correct for MM. Checked wiki and they have him at 165-100-2.
McCarthy is 155-97-2
One of the all time best records.
Obvious answer is no. I cant think of who that could be. Especially in an era where guys last 4 years. Its actually someone still around and in consideration?
Not Shanahan or MM.
Harbough from MI?
No coach has run up that sort of a record. The closest I could think of is Lovie Smith, Wikipedia says he's 95-103 with 6 playoff appearances. And no, I certainly would not want him...well, maybe as a D coordinator? Nah
Hmmmm…… 11 years, we should know who it is. Rex Ryan :lol:
That homie down in ATL was the definition of medocire and had a super fugly wife for a rich coach but he won at least two playoff games.
My first guess was norv turner but I looked him up and it didn't match.
Lovie was my first guess as well. Yeah, this is a tough one. Looking at lists of coaching candidates for next year, I don't see any clue there either. 11 years is a long time - must have a forgiving owner or multiple stints.
Okay, I googled NFL coaches by win total and nobody has a 79 and 104 record.
Hmmmm…… 11 years, we should know who it is. Rex Ryan :lol:
Gary Kubiak?
Jason Garrett
Mike McCarthy is probably going to finish with wins totals that put him up around Chuck Knox, Dan Reeves, Chuck Noll, Marty Schottwnheimer, Curly Lambeau.
norm van brocklin, sam wyche and lovie smith are the only 3 i can find with records anywhere close to that
OK, OK; I'm tilting things a bit to make a point. Those 11 seasons are not all of his years as head coach. But there is a significant difference for those 11 and all of his other seasons. (That should help! :-D)
John Fox?
Not Fox, or any other mentioned so far.
Billy B without Brady?
Yup! Five years in Cleveland, 2000 when Brady didn't play, 2008 when Brady missed the season injured and 4 years since Brady left. That's a whole lot of seasons, a whole lot of games and a whole lot of mediocrity.
There are rumors that one or more teams are interested in TRADING for Belichick. The coach they will get is the one who has coached those 11 mediocre seasons, not the 6xSB Champ, unless they can convince Brady to unretire again!
Just goes to show that the best way to be a great coach is to have a HoF quarterback.
Feels like you're doing a little cherry picking on the years, but I agree with your point overall: if you're a competent coach and you have a HoF level QB, you should have longevity and be well regarded.
I'll go farther and say I think BB is a very good coach, especially defensively, and he has some smart approaches to use of players. I think he has some quirks that work against him, his being the de facto GM among them - he's got some real head scratcher picks.
In a vacuum, I wouldn't want a coach who averaged about 7 wins a season to be the new HC of my team.
Trading for Belichick would be crazy, and I could see the CAR owner doing it. That guy is not football smart.
Well having a crappy QB doesn’t help him. He’s good.
Not cherry picking at all. I included every single year that he didn't have Brady as his starting QB. If I wanted to cherry pick, I could have included just the pre-Brady and post-Brady years, excluding 2008 when Brady was injured. BB would have looked even worse then.
In six years before Brady became his starter, he was a combined 41-55 at Cleveland and NE. That would get most coaches fired.
In the four seasons after Brady, so far he is 27-34. Most teams would move on after four years of that, too.
The Brady years were magical. The other 11 years, very ordinary.
In Cleveland he had Bernie Kosar and Vinny Testaverde for most of the games, with a few by Mark Rypien and Mike Tomczak. Record of 36-44 with one winning season.
In 2000 in NE, Drew Bledsoe was his starter. He finished 5-11.
Not sure I can blame 6 seasons at 41-55 on crappy QBs.
I have made this point several times as I don't consider hoody the "GOAT". I can think of a lot of coaches I think are better. I don't ignore the Brady years, but I don't pretend its the whole story either. I attended a couple of his games while he was with Cleveland....tire fire comes to mind.
I really can't imagine why anyone would hire Belichik at this point. Which means an organization like Carolina will probably go chasing him.
Yeaqh, I think BB's legacy is Brady's legacy and it looks diminished for BB at this point. On Big Bill's next home, I see a lot of speculation for Carolina and a little for San Diego.
I'd think SD would have a lot of appeal for Belichick. Solid QB, good pieces on D that need organization, cool place to live, cooler to be retired in, etc.
You'd think Kraft will try to get as much as he can for BB.
What can he get?
Magic 8 ball says Unclear at this time.
