2. John Harbaugh 

John Harbaugh, for the most part, has been a really good coach for the Baltimore Ravens. They won a Super Bowl and his overall record as head coach of the Ravens is quite impressive. We come to expect this team to do more and to play hard under this coach. Harbaugh finds himself sitting at 4-5 this season and in need of a big divisional win over the rival Bengals Sunday.

He has led the Ravens to 98 total wins since his head coaching career began in 2008. Which is good for the fourth-most in the NFL over that time frame. He has also passed Brian Billick for the most wins by a head coach in Baltimore Ravens franchise history. Harbaugh has 10 playoff wins to his name which is good for second-most by any head coach in the NFL since 2008. As stated above he guided the Ravens to a Super Bowl where they beat the five-time Super Bowl Champion San Francisco 49ers.

Harbaugh has also led the Ravens to two AFC North division championships and three AFC Championship appearances since taking the job in 2008. So why is he on the hot seat? Well, Harbaugh in recent years hasn’t lived up to all these lofty standards. If the Ravens want to contend for a playoff berth and keep up division-leading Steelers, he will have to guide his team to victory over the Bengals on Sunday.
