Broncos coach Sean Payton, with five wins in 2026, now sits one win short of a milestone only 11 other NFL coaches have achieved.
Payton’s next win will give him 200 for his career, including the postseason.
He has coached 319 games, generating a record of 199-120. He’s 189-110 in the regular season and 10-10 in the playoffs.
With two more wins, Payton will catch Dan Reeves and Mike Tomlin for 10th on the all-time list. Four more wins after that will put Payton even with Marty Schottenheimer, at 205. Chuck Noll is No. 8 with 209. Paul Brown is No. 7 with 222.
Payton, 62, could eventually catch Tom Landry at No. 5, at 270.
He’s also angling to be the first coach to win a Super Bowl with two different teams. Other coaches currently in position to chase that distinction include Giants coach John Harbaugh and Steelers coach Mike McCarthy.
