NFLの記録によれば、ヘッドコーチとクォーターバックの再タッグで成功した例はこれまでほとんどない。アーロン・ロジャースとマイク・マッカーシーは今、二人にとって二度目となる新たな挑戦を前にしている。
過去の組み合わせを振り返っても、成功した例は少ない。ピート・キャロルとジーノ・スミスはシアトル・シーホークスでの最初の期間には18勝17敗の成績を残したが、ラスベガス・レイダースで共に過ごした1シーズンは2勝13敗に終わり、キャロルは解任された。ビル・パーセルズとビン・テスタバーディはニューヨーク・ジェッツ時代には12勝2敗と好成績を収めたが、後にダラス・カウボーイズで再会した際は5勝10敗に終わっている。パーセルズはその後、ダラスでドリュー・ブレッドソーとも再会し、2年間で12勝10敗を記録したが、プレーオフ進出は果たせなかった。
