Which coaches do you think will be fired after the season?
 

It looks like Singletary sealed his fate. The owner just dissed him and the whole team.

Which coaches do you think will be fired or will not be resigned after the season?

Holy crap, someone voted for the exact same guys I did. I was on the fence regarding Fisher, though.

I think Fisher's gone if Bud Adams wants to keep Vince Young. And from all reports, it seems like Adams will keep VY.

Yeah, I voted for Fischer only because the owner is hell bent on keeping Vince Young. I think Fischer will either by canned or allowed to walk and go elsewhere.

I'm surprised there haven't been more votes for Sparano. Their owner said that they might change HCs depending on how many people went to the game.

After that last Bengal TD, Turner shouldn't have a job. Not that I am complaining. ROFL

Singletary's pretty much done in SF.

Kubiak.

Firing Jeff Fisher would be a ridiculous move I think.

Fisher is a damn good coach, and he's been there 17 years.

You have to look at the big picture. Fisher is a guy that affects the entire football team. He's smart, he has the experience, the Titans just dont have the talent on the field right now to be where they want to be.

If he fires Fisher to keep ONE PLAYER, it would be the most shortsighted move an owner could make. Particularly because Vince Young isnt really even that good. Say he gets hurt again and he's out. You just canned one of the best coaches in the league to keep a player that cant even play for you. That better be one helluva coach you got, and judging by who all is going to be available, none of them are better than Jeff Fisher.

As long as Fisher doesnt end up in the AFC West, I dont really care what the Titans do.

Fisher has turned into a power-hungry shit coach.

Or Fisher might just leave. If he was available, Dallas might be interested.

I would agree with this pretty much, but Bud Adams might pick Young over Fischer. I think Fischer is going to mandate the Bud choose, Fischer is not going to allow Young to play for him ever again after the stuff he has pulled in Nashville.

wat? Jeff Fisher is one of the most mediocre coaches ever. he's only had 6 winning seasons out of 16 and a bunch of 8-8's.

if it wasn't for VY, he would have been canned a few years ago. Honestly, I think he kinda sucks.

I see what you're saying, but can't entirely agree. If I'm the Titans owner, I'm letting Fisher walk. He's been there for 17 years and as you say "they just dont have the talent on the field right now"- that reflects upon himself. They may have talent evaluators to help with the drafting but after 17 seasons I'm pretty sure he has a rather large say in the ultimate choice on what players are brought it (and let go).

Also, I'd say Jack Del Rio should be out in Jacksonville...

I was tempted to put his name in the poll, but I think he saved his job for another year. The AFC South may have 3 new HCs next year...

Coughlin would be my "other coach".

John Fox
Singletary
Kubiak
Coughlin
Mangini
Fisher
Marvin Lewis

Maybe Norv and you never know what the Raiders will do

Also wouldn't be surprised if Lovie Smith isn't back with the Bears

not ours.

Sparano is likely gone in Miami after today.

I think they'll go hard after Cowher... owner wants a big name hire.

I think Lovie will be back with the Bears. They just clinched the NFC North title and may clinch the 2nd seed(but the Eagles would have to lose). I didn't realize Houston lost, so I think Kubiak and Singletary are the two I know for sure will not be back as a HC for their teams.

Oh shit, reports are out that Singletary will be fired by SF after next week:

Fisher is a .546 coach. He's a poor-man's Marty, with a few more playoff wins.

Something's wrong about that stat. Fisher has a 142-118 career record.

Whoops, read the playoff record. I'll edit my post.

DING DING DING!!!! We have a winner.

Fisher has had back to back 6 game losing streaks. With exception of one 13 - 3 season, which was a complete joke, Fisher has done jack squat.

IIRC Lovie doesn't have a contract after this year so it could go either way

Winning an AFC Championship doesn't count?

If the Bears let Lovie walk, I think that will be a dumb move, IMO.

Correct. They're playing pretty damn decent football.

Who WILL be fired? Fox, Singletary, and Sparano.

Who SHOULD be fired? Probably all of them. But, thankfully, most of them have too much "star power" and won't be. We can look forward to another losing season for San Diego, Tennessee, the Giants, Cleveland, Cincy... :clap:

Coughlin's on the hot seat if the Giants don't get in the playoffs.

Why? They were shitty last year than he had to be practically forced into bring in Martz.

How many teams fire their HC after getting the 3rd seed or better in the playoffs? Not that many. And I think the Bears finally have their franchise QB.

I think Sparano is gone because I feel the team doesn't trust in his system anymore.

I don't think it's that. They're either 1-6 or 1-7 at home and the Dolphins owner is worried about losing fans to the Heat.

By that logic John Fox should keep his job for another 10 years.

Fisher has gotten by thanks to one Super Bowl trip over 10 years ago and a few playoff apperances. Subtract the 2008 season and you have an incredibly average coach who is past his prime.

So a 12-4 record and an AFC Championship game appearance doesn't count either? Fox has been to the NFC Championship game twice while Fisher has been there 3 times.

Keep in mind, that season was the last season Fisher had with the core of players he had when he started as a head coach, i.e. McNair, Bulluk, Mason, etc.

Since the team had to clear out the roster and rebuild Fisher has done jack squat.

SF Mercury blog: Holy melt down, Batman!

Does the Brown family still run the Bengals? If so, Marvin Lewis will be there for as long as he'll take a cheap salary.

I went with Singletary an Shanahan in the poll. I figure Fox still has a little goodwill left to burn. Kubiak is at risk, but may survive. Norv should have never been hired and should have been fired every year, so I figure he'll survive. I don't see the others being at risk at this point.

Singletary can't even last the rest of the season and it appears Kubiak is on his way out.

I haven't voted yet. Cheating FTW!!!!!

I hope Norv isn't fired.

It is looking like there are going to be around 10-12 teams looking for head coaches considering along with those fired next Monday, the Donkeys, Vikings, and Cowboys have openings.

I could see Frazier leaving Minnesota if he wanted to go somewhere else, but I think it would be a huge mistake on the Vikings part. Garret will probably stay in Dallas unless Fisher becomes available.

I agree with both though you never do know with Jerry Jones. Leslie Frazier deserves a shot and I think he will get it either with the Vikes or some where else.

I agree. If Frazier doesn't get the job in Minnesota, I think Wilf will have made a mistake, JMO.

You couldn't be more wrong. Jeff deserves to get fired more than anyone.

Dear AJ

Please fire Norv you stupid ****ing idiot

Signed, Buck

Fire 'em all! Not a keeper in the group.

A Parcells guy and it's not Sparano's fault that Chad Henne did not work out because Henne was probably a Parcell's pick:thumb: Hell IMO the dolphins are very much like the Chiefs in reference to having a alot of potential talent and our QB looks like he will work out and theirs will not and that makes the difference obvioulsy in winning. Defenses are about the same,both have good running games, each have one big time WR and each team plays everyone tough for the most part. We have the QB they do not:shrug:

Jerry got that taste of success with JJ and wanted more of the limelight to put more of his stamp on the team and so much so he ran JJ out of town.

I think Jerry finally learned his lesson after Jerry hired Parcells and from that point on Jerry will always hire a weaker personality he can control because Jerry is a "coach wannabe"/owner otherwise known as a "meddler"(ala Al Davis). I'm sure Parcells got Jerry's word before Parcells took the job that Jerry would not "meddle"(knowing Jerry's reputation) but Jerry in the end couldn't keep his word and Parcells say's "I'm outta here"!

lIt will be interesting if Garrett stands up to Jerry's sh** in the future. But I don't see Garrett having that "fu personality" to demand calling his own shots and why Jones will probably keep JG IMO:thumb:

Singletary gone.

Fox is officially out:

http://carolinagrowl.com/index.php?o...tid=1:articles

He'll be a HC or DC some where next year.

.

This has been a disappointing season in terms of firing HCs.

YOU want a new HC who doesn't get to meet with the team until the start of the season, if a lockout happens.

I know that the lockout has had an important role in this, but I'm still disappointed.

To be honest, this is by far the most criticism Jeff Fisher has gotten during his 16 or 17 year reign, however long it is. I know there's some people who have said he's overrated all along and what not, but I'm talking about the bigger picture with the media, etc. It'll be interesting to see how he performs after all this. If they bounce back and have a great season, good for him.

What I'm saying is, I guess, that he probably hasn't been as worried about his job and his comfort level is definitely not as high anymore. This could have an impact on how he does in the near future and maybe the Titans are willing to gamble on that, especially with the potential lockout coming, this wasn't all that bad of a decision on Tennessee's part as people are gonna make it sound.

I can't believe Marvin Lewis didn't get fired.

Jeff Fisher is one of the most overrated coaches in NFL history.

He is the definition of mediocre - 6 winning seasons in 16 years yet gets a pass routinely in Nashville because he clung to the pubes of McNair.

I can't believe he decided to stay.

He's in a bad situation, with an owner/GM who's a piss poor talent evaluator and isn't concerned with character.

Lewis has been quiet about his disagreement with the FO philosophy, but it has been reported that he wanted better character, and in an interview with Mike and Mike yesterday, he seemed to imply that was one of the condiotions of remaining.

He also want Brown to hire more scouts. Brown has one of the smallest scouting staffs in the NFL.
