Simple question, fun thread. Please don't check up the answer until AFTER you have voted. It's not as easy as you'd think, unless you google it.

Do not read till you vote *
My thoughts coming up with my guess











Bill, pete, tomlin, Jags guy, eagles guy, gruden, payton, harbough
So I'll go with 8

Do we count coordinators who won a ship then became an HC ala lions coach
Then 9

EDIT: Welp I forgot the jags hired the coughlin as a front office guy not coach

Marrone DEFINITELY did not win a SB, and there are lots of guys we could count if we counted ones that won as OCs/DCs.

I guessed 8.
I don't know if I'm right.

It also is a fair question - is this asking if they won as a HC or if they just have a ring?

won as HC.
thread title isn't clear, but the question over the poll options specifies it.
