teams needing a new head coach next year:

giants
bengals
bears
broncos
lions
colts
cardinals
raiders - if they can get Jon Gruden only?

I am unsure why Mike McCarthy is not on the hot seat.

Jim Schwartz should be on top of every team's wish list. Very bright coach.
 
Don't care about any of it, but hey, whenever these multimillionaire owners start building their own palaces instead of relying on socialism, I do want to hear about that.
 
Seahawks I want to see on that list too....I have given up.
 
Cleveland Browns...
Second perhaps third year of disastrous seasons.

Btw...Congrats to Cleveland for making the losing season list.

There's been talk today that Carroll is retiring after this season.

Maybe a few others need to go too....my daughter who follows football much more than me says that coaching is most of the problem, but I still suspect either the front office or ownership is as well.

How does a team go like 6 years ignoring the O-Line, three of those years when it clearly has problems?

It was Pagano's time to go but those last two years weren't entirely his fault.

Coaches say stuff like that all the time then they're gone. I remember a long time ago at the University of Arizona. Larry Smith said he wan't going anywhere. That night he was at USC.

Say what you want but I really like the resolve of this team. Hue Jackson and his team still have their head held high.
 
Good and bad with the Browns lost to the Steelers.

The Good for the Browns----The Steelers pretty much played all of their defensive starters. And the Browns pushed the Steelers D around, in Pittsburgh. Of course this could be looked at as how bad the Steelers D is, not how good the Browns O looked.

The bad for the Browns----The Steelers played their 2nd and 3rd sting offense and the Browns still loss.

Good for Browns is they did not mail it in. Bad for Browns, it did not matter.
 
NFC North: Bears coach, Lions coach both out. Packer coach honestly should be added to the list.

McCarthy will probably get a pass because Rodgers, the best QB on the planet missed most of the season. Hundley started out pretty good, but as he got more starts his warts started to show.

That said the Packers defense has been very bad for many years, someone should lose their job because of that. Including McCarthy..
 
not every team can be a winner ..................... of course coaching is extremely important BUT coaching is not the end all/be all of football ..................... you have to have players with a work ethic that WANT to win & that are not a bunch of ******s ..............

John needs to suit up again. The Broncos problem is they need a QB. Elway has done a good job in Denver. But lately his choice of QB's is lacking.

Clearly the hardest position in Football to fill. The 85 Bears, perhaps the greatest Defense of the era and arguably the best RB of all time, was unable to return to the Super Bowl for one reason: no QB. But, yet, SF, with mediocre D and a modest RB made multiple trips to the big game because they had Joe Montana.

In football, and maybe all of sports, QB is the most important and hardest. . As I mentioned earlier, Garoppolo is proving just how important it is.

That said when it comes to Garoppolo I'm not ready to anoint him a HoF QB and the savior of the 49'ers yet. We've all seen way to many flash in the pan QB's, Griffin III being on the top of that list. He had 8-9 good games and people made him out to be the next Montana. And then poof, he was gone.

BUT the fact that Garoppolo has taken a winless team and ran off 5 straight wins is impressive. But again, we'll see.

The league will study him and solve what he is doing now. If he adds new tricks to his bag, he'll be ok. If he just comes back next year doing what he did this year....he'll have a Dak like season.
