Add Sean Payton to that list also, that's 3 Super Bowl winning coaches in the last 5/6 years alone, I'd imagine there is alot more with a little research

If the Fins fall flat on their collective faces (again) this year, and Ross doesn't make major changes, then I will sign any petition that wants Ross to sell the team.
Of course, I don't see him selling since he has put out a bucket-full of money to upgrade the stadium.

Really? You're going to take ONE YEARS worth of winning percentages to come to that conclusion? 4 out of 5 of those teams have been VERY successful throughout history and built their brand (by winning) to be in that position. What do those top 4 teams represent? About 12 Championships? I'm sure there's a lot more to it than the 2013 winning %.
