Meh. The average coaching tenure in the NFL is 4.3 years. Most 'long' tenures are only 10-15 years. The longest I can think of was Don Shula's 25 years, but he never got past the 2nd round of the playoffs during his final 11 years. Even great coaching has its limitations and doesn't last forever. Many coaches who have success in one place also struggle to build from the ground up elsewhere.
