Tony Dungy
During the 2006 season, the Indianapolis Colts’ Tony Dungy became the first African-American head coach to win a Super Bowl. Dungy won over two-thirds of his regular season games over 13 seasons, and in 2016 was enshrined in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. A Michigan native, Dungy became a coach after a brief NFL career as a defensive back. He became defensive coordinator of the Steelers in the 1980s and held the same position with the Vikings in the 1990s before being named Tampa Bay’s head coach in 1996. He led the Bucs to 4 playoff appearances in six years. Then he took over in Indianapolis, where he made the playoffs in each of his seven seasons. Between both teams, Dungy won 10+ games in 10 different seasons, compiling an incredible 139-69 regular season record.
