You might be wondering, “who took over for John Fox after his Broncos lost in the Super Bowl and then took the Broncos back to the Super Bowl and won?” Well, look no further than Gary Kubiak.

How can you not have the coach of the latest Super Bowl winners in your top 20? You can’t. The man has had an interesting career path, as well, which makes this choice pretty easy. Kubiak was the head coach of the Houston Texans for eight years, compiling a 61-64 record, which was headlined by a 12-4 season in 2012. He followed that with a 2-11 start in 2013 that saw him get fired in December.

Kubiak spent the next year as the Baltimore Raven’s offensive coordinator, biding his time until a team called with a head coaching vacancy. The Denver Broncos came calling and the rest was history, as they made their way to a Super Bowl 50 victory over the Carolina Panthers.

Imagine the chance to sit down with Kubiak, fresh off his Super Bowl win. Maybe he even brings the Lombardi trophy with him! There’s no way you can pass up that opportunity, and Denver is a pretty nice place, too.
