While seven "re-tread'' coaches have won Super Bowls in their second NFL gig after not doing so in their first job -- including another former Eagles coach, Dick Vermeil -- none have done it while staying in their first job for anywhere remotely as long as Reid's 14 seasons in Philadelphia.


On the list of NFL coaches who spent at least 10 seasons with the same team at any point in their career, those who failed to match their earlier success in their next job(s) include luminaries like Green Bay's Curly Lambeau, Cleveland's Paul Brown, Denver's Dan Reeves, Chicago's Mike Ditka, Kansas City's Hank Stram, Kansas City's Marty Schottenheimer, New Orleans' Jim Mora and Minnesota's Dennis Green.
