Right now, the ONLY active coaches that are on the same level with Pete in terms of overall, consistent, long-term NFL success would be Evil Hoodie, John Harbaugh, and you could make a decent case for Mike Tomlin. The next tier down would include guys like Mike Zimmer and Andy Reid, and possibly a couple others.
Pete's success comes despite some major front office flubs (to use kinder words) like Percy Harvin, Jimmy Graham, Malik McDowell, and generally underwhelming success with first round picks the last few years. Pete has some major areas of strength and success where he is a pioneer and the class of the league. Those areas of strength have carried him past his weaknesses and overcome organizational screwups. He is in fact due for another modernization, for his last few years of NFL coaching. If anyone can do it, based on track record of successful self-reinventions, it would be Pete.
McVay, coached circles around him.
Shanny is widely regarded as the best playcaller in the NFL. And I agree.
Cliff Kingsbury?!???! Who had a losing record in the Big-12. Yeah, that guy. Coached circles around him.
He isn't even the best coach in his own division, and you want to put him in the S-tier???
His body of work is pretty great, but that doesn't really matter going forward.
The Seahawks are and have been a sloppy team for a long time, and I can't tell you the last time they played a complete game.

He is 70! He isn't going to get better doing it how he is doing it now. He needs help, and must delegate more.
Regular season record is more a QB thing. Then you get to the playoffs, and everyone mostly has a good QB. So It then comes down to defense, running game, and coaching.
Pete Carroll's regular season record does not impress me. Mike McCarthy won regular season ball games and 1 Superbowl with Aaron Rodgers, you must be mighty impressed by him. S-Tier for sure.
Pete is in charge of those front office flubs btw. And he will be drafting another RB in the 1st round. :shock:
