The NFL is way more of a crap shoot. No one is winning 10 Super Bowls or threatening to win every year.

Look at how few repeat Super Bowl winners there are. The same few teams win every year in the NBA.

Exactly. There are 30 teams and maybe 5 have a legit shot. That means the coaches of the other 25 teams are in a close to impossible position. Just getting to the playoffs in the NFL is lauded. Getting the 8 seed and getting wiped out by the 1 seed gets you fired.

Last years coach of the year got fired. Last years coach of Memphis won more games and went further in the playoffs than they had in their history. he got fired. The Clippers coach set all kinds of wins records the last 2 years, he got fired.

The Colts can be 2-14 and make the playoffs the next year. The Chiefs were 2-14 and are going to probably win 11 or 12 games this year. A new scheme, a last place schedule, a good draft and a bot of luck and you are in the playoffs. Ask the NBA coaches that don't have LeBron if that would work against him?

If you are talking about having winning programs, the NBA is much harder to do.
If you are talking about winning championships Andy Reid would not be a great example.
