Since 1969, NFL teams have had this many coaches:

3 coaches - Steelers and Ravens (est 1996)
8 coaches - Texans (est 2002) and Seahawks (est 1976)
9 coaches - Vikings
10 coaches - Cowboys, Bengals, Jaguars (est 1994), and Panthers (est 1994)
11 coaches - Packers
13 coaches - Bucs (est 1976) and Chiefs
14 coaches - Bears and Eagles
15 coaches - 49ers, Rams, Giants, Dolphins, and Patriots
16 coaches - Commanders and Broncos
17 coaches - Falcons and Titans
18 coaches - Lions, Cardinals, and Bills
19 coaches - Saints, Chargers, and Raiders
20 coaches - Colts and Jets
21 coaches - Browns


I included interim coaches as well just to make the Steelers run that much more impressive.

It would look even more impressive if you don't count expansion teams.

13 coaches - Chiefs
14 coaches - Bears and Eagles
15 coaches - 49ers, Rams, Giants, Dolphins, and Patriots

Patriots and Niners having more than the Bengals wasn't exactly what I expected.

Niners had a run there. Erickson, Nolan, Singletary, and Tomsula in 7 years.

Marvin Lewis coached for 16 years without winning a single playoff game so that helps.

They also have 3 coaches who coached over 5 years with a losing record:
Paul Brown - 55-56-1
Sam Wyche - 61-66
Zac Taylor - 52-63-1

Part of this is the Bengals ownership being satisfied with mediocrity and being too cheap to ever have to pay any money to fire a coach.

Outside of Belichick, the longest tenure was done by Chuck Fairbanks and Raymond Berry, each lasted six seasons. Nine head coaches since 1969 have lasted three seasons or fewer.
