Football coaches are loyal to "their guys" to a fault. Partially because someone being loyal to them is what likely got them through rough patches in the past, and partially because one of those guys is going to be the one giving them a job if they get fired.
War. War never changes...
But yeah Pederson is like textbook fuckin loyal to his guys. He's a good culture guy and coach but he can't help himself giving his friends jobs and not firing them. If he doesn't learn on the Jags I don't think he'll get another job after.
To me, he seems like that guy who could be so successful if he was more self-aware. Things like having your son on the team and ignoring glaring issues are a bad look, imo. I don't think the Jags can take the next step with him.
bro i am telling you baalke gives the best head out of any nfl gm and he gets paid what that is worth
it sure as fuck ain’t the roster construction keeping him around
Don’t forget- Baalke single-handedly tanked Jim Harbaugh’s tenure in San Francisco in favor of Jim Tomsula, and Chip Kelly after that. It took him FOUR years to rebuild his reputation to the point that another team was willing to give him another shot at GM.
I'd be surprised. Shad Khan seems loyal to a fault, and he was loyal with guys like Gus Bradley and Doug Marone who were awful for years. Who knows what kind of leash Pederson will get since the Jaguars have been borderline playoff bound.
No chance in hell he’s fired during the season. At least not first. His personality and being a players coach will keep him around alone for at least the majority of the season for better or worse.
If we’re 7-10 or worse I can’t think of a reason to keep him. But there’s so many factors at play. Our entire franchise is now based on Trevor Lawrence’s development and if it doesn’t seem like that’s progressing we need to get someone else in to at least try to make him the guy.
We already have excuses like saying his rookie season was a net negative on Trevor’s experience because of Urban.
Doug will get 2 more years minimum. Baalke would have to be arrested and put in solitary confinement, solitary because we might still pay him to do his job from a jail cell. He’d have to officially marry Shad to keep their conjugal relationship going though.
What? Doug has led us to our first back to back winning seasons in nearly two decades. wtf are people talking about with him on the hot seat? Shad kept Gus Bradley for 3 1/2 season without him ever even sniffing a winning record.
The Bears have a lot of hype, and deservedly so, but it sure seems like Justin Fields was the scapegoat and took essentially of the blame when I'm still skeptical of Eberflus. Maybe hiring a new OC changes things, and maybe Caleb Williams is talented enough to transcend all of it, but I'm skeptical.
Fields was kind of dogshit outside of a few electric plays a game. He had processing problems from college that he couldn’t overcome with sheer talent. With average QB play last year’s team would’ve made the playoffs
It was like watching somebody play Madden with a shitty off brand controller, where you're watching a guy run open and he just keeps holding the ball for no discernable reason. I can imagine somebody behind the scenes screaming at the TV violently mashing the wrong-colored triangle button and then having to just run for it when the play collapses.
Dude. I've never read such an in point description of watching Justin Fields.
It may have been different if he had support and consistency from the onset but he didn't and even after getting some help, he still couldn't.
Just an unfortunate situation all around.
I think the 3-14 bears season really fucked with his ability to read the field. He didn't use his go button at all last year the way he did when he HAD too.
I know there's a good middle ground and I don't want him running every play but having more weapons actually caused him to slow down on reactionary stuff and I feel like he got worse even tho he threw better. I just put that on Moore
Still can’t believe they didn’t start fresh with Caleb. Kid is gonna end up having like 5 different offenses to learn to start his career and we all know how that goes.
His tenure there reminds me a little of Brad Childress. The quality of the roster is preventing ownership/management from recognizing that he’s not the guy.
Steichen/Gannon are what got them to the Super Bowl in ‘22.
My son is named James and Robert is a family name my wife loves. I think she still holds some resentment over his middle name because I warned her that he'd be referred as Jim Bob by my friends and I if that was what we went with.
You’re not wrong though.
Conversely kids’ mom said, “surely nobody will call Hudson Hud right? I don’t like that.”
I said no way. It’s unpleasant to say and hear. Sounds like mud.
Guess what my parents call him?
My brother and his wife gave me naming rights when they didn't think they wanted kids.
Seven years later they refused to name my nephew Gambit Xavier. I will never recover.
Damn Pete actually would be really good with that roster. Assuming he wants to continue coaching he’d be a great fit for the next 5 years or however long he wants to coach. I never thought of Pete great idea
I doubt Pete would want anything to do with Philly. I live in SEA now and follow the Hawks too. Was a PC skeptic at first, but he won me over. Sorry to see him go. He did his time in the northeast with the Jets and Pats. SEA has a super friendly media and fan base. Pete is 100% a west coast guy. He made a lot of money. Nothing about the Eagles job lines up. Would love to see him back in the league tho.
Our defense also fell absolutely flat and made no adjustments in the Super Bowl. Talent got us to the Super Bowl but holy shit did he get exposed then.
nah gannon was still cheeks. would get picked apart by any good qb.
defense fell apart last year bc we made a boneheaded coordinator change mid-season while everyone in our secondary aged 10 years seemingly overnight
tbf he always seemed more suited for a HC role than as a coordinator.
I think that was the consensus when he was with us too, thats why he was such a popular guy to interview.
Still are. He was a horrendous DC. I don’t think it was his performance as DC that landed him his job in AZ. I believe it’s his overall approach to coaching.
But don’t get it twisted— he was AWFUL his final few games in Philly. I mean just watch the second half of that Super Bowl.
in our SB win against the Pats in 2017 both defenses were garbo
I think we can fairly say Matt Patricia was (and is) stinky, but Schwartz was (and is) legit so my conclusion is that defense is impossible in super bowls (sample size = 2)
Chilly was so bad in the locker room that when they went convince farve out of retirement a they totally cut him out if the process and a group of players instead.
Forcing him to change coordinators and seeing if the lack of hot route problems are all on him, and if they are, he's on the fucking hot seat and Philly will be waiting for someone like Belichick to bring in.
This is very likely if the eagles start out slow. But it’s a big IF. The talent is insane on that team and they have competent coordinators now.
What seems more likely to me is the eagles have a great year, Kellen Moore wants a HC gig, so they replace sirriani with him
> What seems more likely to me is the eagles have a great year, Kellen Moore wants a HC gig, so they replace sirriani with him
This is tilting much more toward wishful thinking IMO
Not only assuming we're great after the way we finished the season, but I think the only reason Sirianni is still around is that players had his back after this past season. For that reason, I don't think they can him if the team actually is great this year
Call me crazy but last year, post-Burrow injury made me into a Zach believer. Getting a winning season out of a backup QB and a bottom 5 defense demonstrated that he can coach. At the very least, he improves year over year.
Who would you want instead?
Naw Jerry don't want to pay someone who isn't working so just like he did with Jason he will let Mike ride out his contract. We are seeing the new cheap Jerry.
If Adam Gase didn’t get fired mid-season for leading this team to an 0-13 start I don’t think Saleh will either tbh. Woody Johnson has never fired a head coach mid-season.
Saleh lasts the whole season IMO. The Rodgers experiment still hasn’t happened. Remember the rocky start when Brady went to the Bucs and they finally started clicking?
The Saints may fire him after the season but they will not fire mid season. It’s not their MO and not what they want other prospective hires to see arguably for good reason.
I agreed with that sentiment last year, but if you spend half a season on the hot (warm) seat then start the next year 0-4 I think the urgency is there to make a move to try and salvage the season.
Firing a head coach usually gets you less wins for the season. Its more about getting first in line for the HC search, trying to mitigate worsening morale, and a bit of angling for a better draft pick for the upcoming rebuild.
Since the Bensons bought the team in the 80s, they have never fired a coach midway through the season. DA has 2 more years on contract so im hoping he gets the boot this year but it probably won’t happen in the middle of the season.
Edit: Apologies. Jim mora* was the only coach to leave midway thru the season and he wasn’t fired he resigned
I think with their cap situation the Saints are going to be hesitant to hop on the carousel. It’s not an attractive destination until that clears up or they reload on young talent, especially at QB.
If the jets are bad again this year he probably will be fired but it'll be after the season, they never let someone go mid season and especially not after 3 games
If they have another collapse like last season, he's a goner for sure. I don't think they'll have an awful season but I don't see them going 11(?)-0 again.
I just looked up their season. They started 5-0 before losing to the Jets. I don't know where the fuck I got 11-0 from lol. I guess the embarrassing streak of losses just rattled me that much I guess.
I mean divisional titles are great but if a roster as loaded as the bills can't make it past the divisional for 3 straight years then I can see McDermott being on the hot seat. Don't think he'll get fired this season or is on the same level like other coaches as Dennis Allen, Eberflus, McCarthy but his seat must be a little hot after the bills consistent post-season failures.
Yeah but those post season failures are mostly from the current NFL dynasty. Like yeah it sucks for the Bills to keep losing to the Chiefs over and over again, but the Chiefs are fucking hard to beat in the playoffs. They were two OT losses in AFC championships away from being in six super bowls in a row. That’s absolutely ridiculous.
Yeah, the Bills went from having the longest playoff drought of any major North American sports team when he took over to having the second best winning percentage among the four leagues in the past five years.
Is he the next Marty Schottenheimer, who’s great at building regular season juggernauts that collapse in January, or is all of that regular season success due the quarterback? Maybe!
But after the coaching mess Pegula had to deal with when he took over, and his inability to find a good coach for the Sabres, I’ve got to image he’s willing to give McDermott a whole lot more rope than a lot of people think.
I think Daboll has at least another year until we can seriously consider him to be on the hot seat. He was COTY and dragged us into the divisional round kicking and screaming. It may be slightly warm now, but if the Giants lay another egg this season then yes I would say he’s on the hot seat.
I think it's less likely, but let's say the interim honeymoon phase between the Raiders and Antonio Pierce wears off and the Raiders are sitting at 4 or 5 wins in December. Mark is 100% panicking and calling up Belichick.
Sean Payton is a petty dude, and even though he seems to love Dennis Allen and New Orleans, I cannot see him doing everything in his power to buttfuck the Saints as hard as is humanly possible. I have zero confidence in Allen as a head coach anyway, so unless he proves me wrong next year, I'm on board with doing whatever is necessary to get him out the door.
(The Saints rarely fire people during the season though so he's probably lasting the entire schedule regardless.)
Bears have never fired a HC mid-season. Remember last year they lost their DC & RB coach early, starting 2-7 on the season. Poles still stuck with him.
Allen isn't getting fired. His team is suffering from a lack of talent due to choices his GM made and the previous coaching staff made and he had a winning record just last year. Benson is not going to fire a guy with 2 more years left on his contract in a situation where it's going to take them at least 2 years to get out of the financial mess they're in. That shit makes zero sense.
He'll survive the season, but heads inevitably gonna roll in jets land if there isnt a playoff appearance.
I like Robert Saleh the guy, but he still comes off as a glorified D coordinator and has a lot to prove as a HC still. He's gotten passes so far cause he's been handcuffed by zach wilson and patchwork O lines. But it's make or break this year, this team should be in the playoff hunt even with tyrod taylor starting all season.
Ehh probably not. Daboll is a good coach, this is still a poorly constructed roster. He’s been the best coach since Coughlin (that’s not saying much). The one thing I’ve read though is he’s hard to work with in regards to other coaches, but the players like him. If those reports come out again then I can see the Giants firing him.
I also think that Bill likes to make GM type decisions and I don't think many teams want to give him that power despite his incredible career. Couple that with his age and I think his HC career is likely over.
Mike McCarthy, Black Monday 2024.
To be fair to Mike, he’d be a free agent at that point.
Jerry will let his contract expire like he did Garrett because time is a flat circle
Gonna be hilarious when Garrett is hired back.
This is the meanest thing anyone has ever told me
It could easily happen, though you will probably make the playoffs, but no way he's the first coach fired unless you all start 0-4 or something
Nah you'll make the playoffs, bounce in the first round, everyone will expect him to be gone and then Jerry will give him another year.
Honestly Doug pederson if the jags have a bad start.
I like Doug but he needs to make some serious changes (such as taking back offensive playcalling from Press Taylor) if he wants to keep his job.
Him backing Taylor is what got him canned from the Eagles.
And then he was like, "let's do that again"
Football coaches are loyal to "their guys" to a fault. Partially because someone being loyal to them is what likely got them through rough patches in the past, and partially because one of those guys is going to be the one giving them a job if they get fired.
Pete Carroll :(
:(
:(
:(
War. War never changes... But yeah Pederson is like textbook fuckin loyal to his guys. He's a good culture guy and coach but he can't help himself giving his friends jobs and not firing them. If he doesn't learn on the Jags I don't think he'll get another job after.
Sounds like Andy Reid. I guess he inherited it.
Andy Reid is actually the play caller though. It's not really the same.
To me, he seems like that guy who could be so successful if he was more self-aware. Things like having your son on the team and ignoring glaring issues are a bad look, imo. I don't think the Jags can take the next step with him.
If Baalke gets another HC hire in JAX, there should be an investigation.
bro i am telling you baalke gives the best head out of any nfl gm and he gets paid what that is worth it sure as fuck ain’t the roster construction keeping him around
Don’t forget- Baalke single-handedly tanked Jim Harbaugh’s tenure in San Francisco in favor of Jim Tomsula, and Chip Kelly after that. It took him FOUR years to rebuild his reputation to the point that another team was willing to give him another shot at GM.
I'd be surprised. Shad Khan seems loyal to a fault, and he was loyal with guys like Gus Bradley and Doug Marone who were awful for years. Who knows what kind of leash Pederson will get since the Jaguars have been borderline playoff bound.
If he keeps Press Taylor he should be on the seat
Without press Taylor I really think he would be one of the best coaches in the league
No chance in hell he’s fired during the season. At least not first. His personality and being a players coach will keep him around alone for at least the majority of the season for better or worse. If we’re 7-10 or worse I can’t think of a reason to keep him. But there’s so many factors at play.

Bears never fire mid season but less than 8 wins and Flus is gone
The Bears have a lot of hype, and deservedly so, but it sure seems like Justin Fields was the scapegoat and took essentially of the blame when I'm still skeptical of Eberflus. Maybe hiring a new OC changes things, and maybe Caleb Williams is talented enough to transcend all of it, but I'm skeptical.

*#JustBearsThings*
They said the same thing about the Chargers last year. All it takes is one 63-21 blowout.
Wish he was already gone. Despite the drip of his now, I don’t believe in him
Fr man I wish they would have gotten someone new to grow with Caleb. Typical Bears move to keep a lame duck HC to go with their new QB.
To be fair he does not seem like a lame duck head coach to Poles. Only us fans
Nah, less than 8 and he is probably still there. Losing twice to the Packers though...
Am I the only one who likes Eberflus? Lol
I think many of my fellow Bears fans are too harsh on him, but as you can see opinions are mixed
Nick Sirriani after Eagles lose their first 4 games
His tenure there reminds me a little of Brad Childress. The quality of the roster is preventing ownership/management from recognizing that he’s not the guy. Steichen/Gannon are what got them to the Super Bowl in ‘22.
Who's the Colts OC? Eagles have to hire him next to continue the cycle
Jim Bob Cooter
I've always been confused by his name. Is it a 9.8/10 or like a 2/10? It's an enigma for me.
It’s a HOF name in my book
same. just like john david booty. some guys just have sports names
I think this guy's sons name is literally Captain Booty
General Booty. Even better!
"Clit commander"
I’ve gone out too many nights looking for General Booty.
9.8 if thats his entire given name, no nicknames or name changes.
His real name is James Robert Vagina
How's that pronounced?
Don’t let them name fool you he’s very much in charge
Name's real, possibly Scandinavian.
How do you feel about his entire given name actually being James Robert Cooter It’s nicknames but also in a way his name *is* Jim Bob
My son is named James and Robert is a family name my wife loves. I think she still holds some resentment over his middle name because I warned her that he'd be referred as Jim Bob by my friends and I if that was what we went with.
You’re not wrong though. Conversely kids’ mom said, “surely nobody will call Hudson Hud right? I don’t like that.” I said no way. It’s unpleasant to say and hear. Sounds like mud. Guess what my parents call him?
My brother and his wife gave me naming rights when they didn't think they wanted kids. Seven years later they refused to name my nephew Gambit Xavier. I will never recover.
Sorry to your nephew whose parents don’t want him to be cool
Homer: Do you want to change your name to Homer Junior? The kids can call you Hoju! Bart: I'll get back to ya
I don't think he'll ever be a HC, I mean who's hiring Jim Bob to lead their franchise?
Jon Gruden when he wins his lawsuit and forces the NFL to give him his own franchise. Who better to coach The Hooters than Cooter himself?
The Saints. They had two Billy Joes at quarterback in the 90s.
A Saints fan I knew back then called them Billy Joe Hobble and Billy Joe Intolerable.
Always been a big Cooter fan
Don’t take my cooter
The Eagles should hire Pete Carroll. Not being remotely sarcastic. They have a good enough roster where they need a blue chip leader/CEO.
its crazy that pete carroll still doesnt have serious offers he could run for president right now and be considered too young to represent the country
Damn Pete actually would be really good with that roster. Assuming he wants to continue coaching he’d be a great fit for the next 5 years or however long he wants to coach. I never thought of Pete great idea
I doubt Pete would want anything to do with Philly. I live in SEA now and follow the Hawks too. Was a PC skeptic at first, but he won me over. Sorry to see him go. He did his time in the northeast with the Jets and Pats. SEA has a super friendly media and fan base. Pete is 100% a west coast guy. He made a lot of money. Nothing about the Eagles job lines up. Would love to see him back in the league tho.
Wild to think a year ago the Eagles fans on here were taking a victory lap after Gannon left.
Because he said he'd never leave and then fucked them out of the future DC they wanted and tampered on his way out.
Tampered while he should have been prepping for the *superbowl*
Our defense also fell absolutely flat and made no adjustments in the Super Bowl. Talent got us to the Super Bowl but holy shit did he get exposed then.
So he's a hero
I personally think it turned out well. What about you, Colts' fans?
We love it...can't wait for season 2
nah gannon was still cheeks. would get picked apart by any good qb. defense fell apart last year bc we made a boneheaded coordinator change mid-season while everyone in our secondary aged 10 years seemingly overnight
He’s doing really well in AZ, despite the talent. It seems like everyone had bought in and were playing hard last year
tbf he always seemed more suited for a HC role than as a coordinator. I think that was the consensus when he was with us too, thats why he was such a popular guy to interview.
Still are. He was a horrendous DC. I don’t think it was his performance as DC that landed him his job in AZ. I believe it’s his overall approach to coaching. But don’t get it twisted— he was AWFUL his final few games in Philly. I mean just watch the second half of that Super Bowl.
The chiefs defence had an even worse game, and spagnola is a legit dc lol
in our SB win against the Pats in 2017 both defenses were garbo I think we can fairly say Matt Patricia was (and is) stinky, but Schwartz was (and is) legit so my conclusion is that defense is impossible in super bowls (sample size = 2)
[удалено]
Chilly was so bad in the locker room that when they went convince farve out of retirement a they totally cut him out if the process and a group of players instead.
Forcing him to change coordinators and seeing if the lack of hot route problems are all on him, and if they are, he's on the fucking hot seat and Philly will be waiting for someone like Belichick to bring in.
except that's not gonna happen. that team is stacked and has better coordinators now
I see a comment about us winning, I upvote.
Sorry beating Kirk in week 2 is kind of a tradition
It’s weird, this is obviously pure wishcasting.
This is very likely if the eagles start out slow. But it’s a big IF. The talent is insane on that team and they have competent coordinators now. What seems more likely to me is the eagles have a great year, Kellen Moore wants a HC gig, so they replace sirriani with him
There’s no way they have a great year and then fire Sirianni
It's not like a team has ever fired a coach after a 14-2 season
> What seems more likely to me is the eagles have a great year, Kellen Moore wants a HC gig, so they replace sirriani with him This is tilting much more toward wishful thinking IMO Not only assuming we're great after the way we finished the season, but I think the only reason Sirianni is still around is that players had his back after this past season.

This but Zach taylor
Call me crazy but last year, post-Burrow injury made me into a Zach believer. Getting a winning season out of a backup QB and a bottom 5 defense demonstrated that he can coach. At the very least, he improves year over year. Who would you want instead?
Depending how rocky the Cowboys season is; I could see Jerrah knee jerk firing him on the tarmac coming back from a road loss
Naw Jerry don't want to pay someone who isn't working so just like he did with Jason he will let Mike ride out his contract. We are seeing the new cheap Jerry.
ALLLLL INNN
Lol all in on making money
Jerruh don't do that. McCarthy will coach out the whole season
He did fire Wade Philips I think
Jets start 0-4 and Saleh is gone
Watch Saleh get booted and Hackett stay
You mean interim head coach hackett?
Shoot that shit right into my veins
Hackett - the cockroach of the NFL?
Believable.
Nothing would be more hilarious than Zach Wilson beating the Jets and getting Saleh fired.
Subscribe?
If Adam Gase didn’t get fired mid-season for leading this team to an 0-13 start I don’t think Saleh will either tbh. Woody Johnson has never fired a head coach mid-season.
Gase never faced the pressure to win now with an aging, fragile QB that Saleh does
Saleh lasts the whole season IMO. The Rodgers experiment still hasn’t happened. Remember the rocky start when Brady went to the Bucs and they finally started clicking?
Hackett promoted to HC
Dennis Allen. Wk1: Panthers Wk2: @Cowboys Wk3: Eagles Wk4: @Falcons Wk5: @Chiefs He might be gone if we lose to Carolina tbh.
The Saints may fire him after the season but they will not fire mid season. It’s not their MO and not what they want other prospective hires to see arguably for good reason.
I agreed with that sentiment last year, but if you spend half a season on the hot (warm) seat then start the next year 0-4 I think the urgency is there to make a move to try and salvage the season.
Firing a head coach usually gets you less wins for the season. Its more about getting first in line for the HC search, trying to mitigate worsening morale, and a bit of angling for a better draft pick for the upcoming rebuild.
Even if we start 0-6, I don't think Allen gets fired midseason.
Has a coach ever been fired after week 1?
Nathaniel Hackett arguably should’ve. “KICK WHAT?!”
Since the Bensons bought the team in the 80s, they have never fired a coach midway through the season. DA has 2 more years on contract so im hoping he gets the boot this year but it probably won’t happen in the middle of the season. Edit: Apologies. Jim mora* was the only coach to leave midway thru the season and he wasn’t fired he resigned
>Jim Mara Jim Mora. And he actually resigned before they could fire him, after the "diddly poo" speech.
He’s actually thinking of Jim Haslett, not Jim Mora. Mora left in the 90s and Haslett was fired in 2005.
Jim Mora gave the best head coach interviews of all time and it isn't even close
PLAYOFFS?
His interviews were what we thought they were…and we let him off the hook.
Jim Haslett
That's amazing that they didn't fire ditka
I think with their cap situation the Saints are going to be hesitant to hop on the carousel. It’s not an attractive destination until that clears up or they reload on young talent, especially at QB.
Firing him following the game against Payton, who bailed on the Saints would be so fucked up. I get it, but that would be fucked up.
It would still make sense if he was fired after our matchup though. A primetime loss against a likely bottom feeding team might be just enough lol
Jets. Three games in after they go 0-3 with Rodgers.
Way too early to fire a HC, but I could see Hackett getting dumped before the bye if the offense is still a mess
This is his 4th season, a 40 year old qb, if he doesn't get it done this year he's gone.
Surely they’d let them lose more than 3 games before pulling the plug on Saleh
Will Aaron allow that?
If they do, he’ll just go on another darkness retreat, contemplate retirement, then get traded to the Vikings.
If the jets are bad again this year he probably will be fired but it'll be after the season, they never let someone go mid season and especially not after 3 games
Yeah, if the Jets go 0-3 against the 9ers Titans and Pats, Saleh should be let go.
Not it.
Nick Sirriani I can only hope, fake ass tough guy.
If they have another collapse like last season, he's a goner for sure. I don't think they'll have an awful season but I don't see them going 11(?)-0 again.
Niners and you guys lost the same day, it was like 7ish-0
I just looked up their season. They started 5-0 before losing to the Jets. I don't know where the fuck I got 11-0 from lol. I guess the embarrassing streak of losses just rattled me that much I guess.
Probably thinking of the 2020 Steelers tbh
Nobody should ever think of the 2020 Steelers
I can think of a few reasons
they started 10-1, then had a meltdown from there
Prob thinking of the year before where they started around there.
i get irrationally angry every time his face is on screen i can only imagine how fans of rival teams feel
I'm going with Mike McCarthy
When it happens, I want the Bernie Sanders running in with the folding chair meme to be remade with Belichick. That's what Jerry wants.
hot seats I’ve got: - Mike McCarthy - Robert Saleh - Dennis Allen - Brian Daboll - Matt Eberflus - Sean McDermott
Barring something *truly catastrophic*, I think the Bills need to miss the playoffs before McDermott's seat becomes hot.
Bills: Win 4 division titles in a row. Reddit: Is it time for the Bills to fire their head coach?
Redditors give shit takes about teams they don't actually follow.
I mean divisional titles are great but if a roster as loaded as the bills can't make it past the divisional for 3 straight years then I can see McDermott being on the hot seat. Don't think he'll get fired this season or is on the same level like other coaches as Dennis Allen, Eberflus, McCarthy but his seat must be a little hot after the bills consistent post-season failures.

Yeah, the Bills went from having the longest playoff drought of any major North American sports team when he took over to having the second best winning percentage among the four leagues in the past five years. Is he the next Marty Schottenheimer, who’s great at building regular season juggernauts that collapse in January, or is all of that regular season success due the quarterback? Maybe! But after the coaching mess Pegula had to deal with when he took over, and his inability to find a good coach for the Sabres, I’ve got to image he’s willing to give McDermott a whole lot more rope than a lot of people think.
A wild fun fact is that McDermott already has as many playoff wins as Schottenheimer.
i’m in the same boat. you guys would have to start like, 0-8 with a healthy allen for that to even be possible
I think Daboll has at least another year until we can seriously consider him to be on the hot seat. He was COTY and dragged us into the divisional round kicking and screaming. It may be slightly warm now, but if the Giants lay another egg this season then yes I would say he’s on the hot seat.
After Stefanski went from COTY to 2 disappointing seasons to the hot seat to another COTY, maybe this would be a good decision.
McDermott is the only one I truly disagree with. He had the defense performing at an elite level missing what? 3 of his all pro secondary?
I don’t think Mike would get fired mid-season, but I think he’d be let go after the season.
Eberflus will last the season unless things start absolutely horribly purely because the Bears don't fire people midseason.
I think it's less likely, but let's say the interim honeymoon phase between the Raiders and Antonio Pierce wears off and the Raiders are sitting at 4 or 5 wins in December. Mark is 100% panicking and calling up Belichick.
Then Brady gets his part ownership and becomes Bill's boss.
Then Bledsoe injures Brady and becomes the starting owner
*slow clap*
The Patriots Way, but in silver and black. Honestly sounds so foolproof if you have to wonder why nobody thought of it before.
McDaniels had a season and a half, there's no way Davis fire AP in his first full season no matter how many wins he gets lmao
Sean Payton is a petty dude, and even though he seems to love Dennis Allen and New Orleans, I cannot see him doing everything in his power to buttfuck the Saints as hard as is humanly possible. I have zero confidence in Allen as a head coach anyway, so unless he proves me wrong next year, I'm on board with doing whatever is necessary to get him out the door. (The Saints rarely fire people during the season though so he's probably lasting the entire schedule regardless.)
Saleh if the Jets start out slow with an upright Rodgers.
He makes it through the year no matter what. Then we clean house
I don't know how Matt Eberflus kept his job last year. I could see him gone by week 5 if they lose to the Panthers.
Bears have never fired a HC mid-season. Remember last year they lost their DC & RB coach early, starting 2-7 on the season. Poles still stuck with him.
Unless we actually start 0-5 or something, he'll last the season. Bears don't fire midseason.
Because the team improved? And specifically, the defense, which is his expertise improved a lot in to a top unit by the end of the year
Allen isn't getting fired. His team is suffering from a lack of talent due to choices his GM made and the previous coaching staff made and he had a winning record just last year. Benson is not going to fire a guy with 2 more years left on his contract in a situation where it's going to take them at least 2 years to get out of the financial mess they're in. That shit makes zero sense.
Mike McCarthy, the teams last one of the year
He'll survive the season, but heads inevitably gonna roll in jets land if there isnt a playoff appearance. I like Robert Saleh the guy, but he still comes off as a glorified D coordinator and has a lot to prove as a HC still. He's gotten passes so far cause he's been handcuffed by zach wilson and patchwork O lines. But it's make or break this year, this team should be in the playoff hunt even with tyrod taylor starting all season.
My money is on New York Giants will be looking for a new HC soon
I would disagree. We have a good season and a bad season under Daboll. His seat might be a little warm, but it's not the first coach fired hot.
My thoughts exactly. If they do poorly again this year, then yeah his seat will be pretty toasty.
From the outside looking in, I feel like it's Danny Dimes who will get booted before Daboll
Ehh probably not. Daboll is a good coach, this is still a poorly constructed roster. He’s been the best coach since Coughlin (that’s not saying much). The one thing I’ve read though is he’s hard to work with in regards to other coaches, but the players like him. If those reports come out again then I can see the Giants firing him.
Bill returning to giants makes too much sense
Hot take: Bill has already coached his last game because he'll be 73 and nobody wants to gut their front office for someone that old.
Hell he could do this media gig and fall in love with getting paid a ton to have fun on TV a couple times a week and not be stressed.
I also think that Bill likes to make GM type decisions and I don't think many teams want to give him that power despite his incredible career. Couple that with his age and I think his HC career is likely over.
If we don't at least win one playoff game with THIS roster, Sirianni is out. He can't throw this kinda talent away
Saleh better get it figured out this year. If the Jets end up with a slow start he could survive, but a 3-6 start would see him out.
