    Not sure what we're after here, but the answer is: All of the Above (since 2003)

    Marty Schottenheimer
    Norv Turner
    Mike McCoy
    Anthony Lynn
    Brandon Staley

      What's the difference in them what do they have in common? Lynn walked in and had a great season but each year after was worse.

        If you're looking for a trend that sets Staley apart, there isn't any yet. To break trends, he'd have to best Norv Turner and that would mean a Superbowl berth. If we're going strictly by playoff berths weighted further by wins in the playoffs, Schottenheimer is actually the worst performer on the list since we never won a playoff game under his watch.

            Tough one and back in the day on the UT board Marty definitely had his detractors.

              His second season was better than his first. You're way off with this one.

                Actually, Marty went to the playoffs with this organization in his third year. The OP said in their 1st or 2nd year.

                The other coaches who got the team to the playoffs within the first two years are Bobby Ross and Don Coryell. Depending on how you see the AFL days, Sid Gillman lead the organization to a league championship a handful of times.

                    You're right, I actually forgot about the 2002 season.

                      Without a doubt, Norv. From day one everybody was on his case.

                      Except me. I thought he did a good job with increasingly barren teams.

                      If LT and Rivers hadn’t gone lame in the NE game, I think Norv would have taken that team all the way.

                      After that year, player talent went off a cliff.

                      I think this year is the first year since then enough talent has finally been assembled to compete once again in the playoffs.
