I was reading an interesting list of coaches who might be on the hot seat in the NFL.  So I wanted to see what this group though.

 

The poll lists some of the coaches who I feel may be less than very secure for next season.  Of course, some are long shots but I wanted to list them just in case.

 

Select any of the coaches that you think will be fired or relieved from their duties, either before or after Week 17.

Dan Quinn falcons coach?

I actually think Cleveland is more likely to remove the interim tag from Gregg Williams than fire him. He has that team playing competitive football. I thought they would tank under him as badly as th

Wowww no Adam Gase?? He's the worst coach on the board IMO. 

 

Wanted to see who voted for McD lol and why he's on this poll. Clearly not getting fired.

So interim coaches count as being fired?

Yeahhh we should shorten this list because a. Interim coaches aren't getting fired until end of year. Damage to the team is already done.  b. We can rule out year 1 and most year 2 coaches.. like McDermott.

Does Marvin Lewis getting kicked upstairs into the front office count?

Nah I say take him off if that's likely the case.

 

I'd say Koetter, Bowls, and Gase are the main suspects . Although Gase likely stays.. undeservedly. I just personally think is a bad coach. His record isn't horrible but he's had a much better team to work with than anyone on this list.

 

Maybe Vance Joseph. Tossup between those 3

I think it's misleading to list interim coaches such as Philbin and Williams.  They aren't hired as head coaches, they're filling in due to a firing, so they kind of can't be fired from a position they haven't really held.

 

I can't find anyplace where either the Ravens or Harbaugh have formally confirmed this, but La Canfora reported a while back that Harbaugh and the Ravens would "mutually part ways" after this season.

 

Wilks just came to the Cardinals last January.   A year?  Yikes.

Maybe he really did turn down an ambassadorship to the Cayman Islands ?? in favor of his dream job Brownies? Egg on all our faces, well played...

Hmm...maybe but I would think he gets the benefit of the doubt as this is his first sub .500 season...if he starts off next year the same way then yeah, maybe next year

Bowles is a dead man walking...

 

Philbin surely isn't who they have in mind as a long term coach in GB...

 

Dirk Koetter has been mostly terrible...

 

Doug Marrone might be gone too although Coughlin swears he isn't...

Trust the Process

 

We just lost to the 3-9 Jets, at home, where they needed to come from behind in the last few minutes and win the game.

Who are we going to beat ?

Trust the process ?

"Process" is something you put in your hair to take the curls out..................

 

Beane is a dumb kid learning how to be a GM, for the first time.

McDermott is a dumb kid, learning how to be a HC, for the first time.

J Allen is a dumb kid learning how to be a NFL QB, for the first time.

They/we have a long way to go to get to the playoffs again.

People who should be fired:

Gregg Williams and Joe Philbin (neither should get the permanent gig)

Vance Joseph (should have been fired last year - he's hopeless)

Dirk Koetter (God only knows why he was ever hired in the first place)

Steve Wilkes (in waaaaaaay over his head)

Adam Gase (personality is ill suited to being a head coach)

Marvin Lewis (it's time)

Todd Bowles (had his shot)

 

People who will be fired:

Philbin will not get the Packers gig (Williams is 50/50 IMO)

Dirk Koetter (see above)

Marvin Lewis (see above)

Todd Bowles (see above)

Vance Joseph (I think he had a chance of saving his job until losing to Nick Mullens - that sealed his fate)

 

Gase and Wilkes I think survive.

Don't see Mike Tomlin on the list.  Last year many were calling for him to go, with the latest meltdown losing 4 of the last 5 is it, can see him going.  It's a similar situation to what was going on in Green Bay.  Competitive every year, won a SB few seasons back, but each year getting just a little worse than the year prior.

It's going to be a very interesting offseason because of the limited amount of quality assistants out there. Harbaugh stated he isn't leaving Michigan. David Shaw might leave Stanford for the right job.

 

I think the biggest fish out there will be Mike McCarthy as the man did help develop Aaron Rodgers and won a super bowl. The guy does have a 125-77-2 record with 8 winning seasons out of 12. 13 Packer players on IR and the last time they were in this same situation record wise they ended up making the playoffs.

 

Josh McDaniel's would have been my first choice for big fish but he screwed himself when he took the Colts HCing job, hired coaches and then backed out.

 

Perhaps this is the year that Bill Cowher gets lured out of retirement?I just hope the Jets don't get McCarthy or Cowher.

Not shortening the list.  It’s all about which coaches will not return to their teams in 2019.  

 

Also if an an interim coach takes over and isn’t given the HC coach job, they basically have been relieved of their duties.  It’s a nicer way of saying they were fired

Bowles, Marrone, and Koetter will fired

 

Williams and Philbin wiil not be retained

 

Lewis will be transitioned into a front office position

So basically 6 fired coaches?

I don't care about any other team except the Bills. Crossman and Castillo gotta go...

 

McDermott deserves another year at least.

 

Daboll needs another year for a couple reasons:

1. Don't want Allen learning a whole new system

2. See what Daboll can draw up with better talent on offense

 

Frazier stays for sure (I just wish he would draw up some more blitz packages)

 

So HC, OC and DC are safe... Positional coaches can be replaced...

Maybe it's different with the Rooney kids running the show, but the Steelers tend to keep their HC through thick and thin. There were times when I thought Cowher would get the axe, but the front office stood by him and their patience eventually paid off when he brought in "one for the thumb."
