H2o Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 Del Rio is a guy I wouldn't have thought, but someone has to be the fall guy for the big step back I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsFan4 Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 I found this kind of strange - http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000900056/article/whos-safe-whos-out-afc-coaches-on-hot-seat Quote Los Angeles Chargers: Coach Anthony Lynn has impressed in his first year, taking an 0-4 start and turning it into a playoff push, but he may be fighting for his coordinators. Both defensive coordinator Gus Bradley and offensive coordinator Ken Whisenhunt are out of their contracts at season's end, and both will be coveted, sources say. They just hired Gus Bradley at the start of this season. Wonder why they only gave him a 1 year contract...? That doesn't show much faith in him (or in Anthony Lynn's ability to hire a DC).

Considering the bums he has had, he has done quite well. 4 hours ago, BillsFan4 said: I found this kind of strange - http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000900056/article/whos-safe-whos-out-afc-coaches-on-hot-seat They just hired Gus Bradley at the start of this season.

So it looks like the likely vacancies: - Bengals - Raiders - Colts - Lions - Bears - Giants - Cardinals Of those I think both Del Rio and Caldwell can consider themselves pretty unlucky to be fired. If there really are 7 open jobs I don't know that I see 7 candidates to fill them. Coaches who I would consider firing who will not be - Vance Joseph and Adam Gase. Both have presided over terribly coached teams in 2017. Edited December 31, 2017 by GunnerBill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would gladly take Gase for OC though, so hope he gets fired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoloinOhio Posted December 31, 2017 Author Share Posted December 31, 2017 In Tennessee, allbright expects them to make a big push for McDaniels. I remember they interviewed him last time it was open. And playoff berth won’t save Mularkey per Albright. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJS Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 Anybody with McDermott connections that would want to be offensive coordinator under him? I can't imagine Dennison was his first choice. Or even his second. He probably had to settle for him. That being said, it is tough to really get a feel for Dennison given the lack of passing ability he has to deal with.

Probably, never been a big fan of Cadwell seems like more of a coordinator than a HC to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a hard time believing they'll fire him, though. Awful lot of circumstances down there out of his control. When they were healthy, he had them playing extremely well.
