1. Bill Belichick, Patriots
QB Tom Brady(notes): “I’ve always been privileged to play for Coach Belichick, who I’ve always said is the best coach in the history of the league. In terms of his work ethic and his preparation, he’s as diligent as he’s ever been.”

2. Sean Payton, Saints
QB Drew Brees(notes): ” (Payton’s ranking is) well deserved. I mean, it’s hard to say who’s No. 1. But you certainly can’t argue with what Bill Belichick has done in his tenure there. … With the exception of training camp, guys have fun here. So I would say, more than anything, the way that Sean Payton is able to complement and combine that very disciplined, fair but stern attitude, with, ‘Hey, we’re going to have fun, and we’re going to enjoy what we do,’ (is what makes him a great coach).”
3. Jeff Fisher, Titans
DB Vincent Fuller(notes): “Once he gets that Super Bowl title, which I hope we can bring him in the next couple of years, then he’ll be higher on the list. … He is the longest-tenured coach, so he has the respect there. And he takes care of his players. I don’t have another coach to base things off of, but I always hear horror stories from players who’ve left who complain and say it wasn’t like it was in Tennessee, coachingwise.”

Re: Ranking all 32 NFL head coaches
I have a problem with Tomlin at 5. He is a good coach but he inherited a great defensive team from Bill Cowher. He didn't have to build from the bottom like Belichick, Fisher, Payton, Reid and Shanahan for Denver. Other than that I like the top 10.

Kubiak is too low. Carroll is too high. Gailey is the worst coach in the league.

Josh McDaniels is the worst coach in the league.
No problems with the top 3 though.
