If there has been any research done on the topic, I would bet that black coaches have underperformed their white counterparts in all sports against the spread and straight up.
One reason is the intelligence factor but the 2nd and bigger reason is that many black coaches are propelled to that position due to affirmative action reasons.
There is incredible pressure on owners to hire black coaches regardless of whether or not they are the best individuals for the job.
For the same reason, I have no doubt that black college students underperform their white counterparts in all major colleges throughout the nation.

^andy, I don't necessarily disagree with your train of thoughts but I would rank both Tomlin and Lovie in the Top 15 coaches in this league. They are certainly better than many of their current *white* counterparts, i.e. Gary Kubiak, Jack del Rio, Chan Gailey, Tony Sparano, Pete Carroll and even the current Mike Shanahan, to name a few.

canabiz,
I agree with you about Tomlin though not too sure about Lovie.
Heres hoping he proves me wrong this weekend and beats the Packers.
Both Tomlin and Lovie would be head coaches in the NFL even without all the B.S. affirmative action crap.
Mike Singletary would NOT have made the cut though.

don't you singletary got a chance as he was a great linebacker in the nfl?
i just don't get y race always has to come up... a majority of the time when a black coach gets a chance the team he is brought to sucks from what i can think of... then again i never think of a coach based off race so what the heck do i know

does Mike Tomlin going to one of the best schools in the country affect your decision, or is he automatically mentally deficient because of his race? nevermind, i couldn't care less what you think.

true that, unless Peyton Manning is playing for one. Peyton has a knack of making up for the deficiencies of his coaches.

It's mostly due to the ignorance of the person that brings it into play. Simply put, and sadly enough, we'll never run out of people who confuse character and intelligence with skin color, geography and language.

Don't know if those are my motives, but I'm with you nevertheless...
BTW, Mike Tomlin is more of motivator than a coach, he doesn't really coach that team.
Dick LeBeau and Bruce Arians coach that team!

Peyton manning seems to make up for his coach's deficiencies only in the regular season. 9-10 all time in playoffs and has lost more home games than i can count. running game defense and rex grossman got him his super bowl. pats championship game 2nd half is only time he has performed in playoffs. Steelers dont make decisions based on rooney rule, even if it is named for owner. tomlin is excellent coach. theres a reason theyve only had 3 coaches in 4 million years. i hope big ben gets his 3rd lombardi.

it's sad that race is used as a basis for betting, just as it is for hiring. best talent should win the game and earn a coaching position, period.

OK.. Disclaimer.. I'm Black.. but guess what..?
I'm college degreed.. against affirmative action, cant stand Obama, and love Rush Limbaugh..
But.. this still may be the most rediculous post i've ever seen... But.. It shows we still got a ways to go.
First.. Both Black Coaches will win this weekend.. BUT.. it has nothing to do with their color... and.. by the way.. this will be the 2nd time 2 black coaches will play against each other in the superbowl..
Assholes, Idiots, Retards, and yes.. dumb mother fuckers on SBR come in all shades and colors.. Thats life... My WHITE Momma taught me that..
It will be fun watching your dumb ass lose your money on the white coaches this weekend.. haha.. just don't blame skin color on it.. it is because Chicago is at home and rested.. and Pitt is at home at full strength..
Oh.. by the way.. I love Big Ben... but yes.. white men rape women also..
But it wasnt because of his color.. it was become he was a dumb ass!

This post actually makes me want to research this topic more... I have to wonder if black coaches/black qbs actually do better ATS long run. Does overt and subconscious racism move lines?
