2017 Hot Seat

[Baxterman]

People may think otherwise, but its time to put Caroll and the Hawks staff on the hotseat after the Jags debacle.

If he is fired and the Lions didn't offer him a blank check I would be pissed.

He would have his choice of jobs at s ridiculous amount of money in college or pros and the Seahawks would be hiring a lesser coach to replace him.

 

[Gene Parmesan]

Carroll isn't getting fired. Jeez.

Sorry what? Carroll has the highest level of job security in the NFL aside from Belichik. He could go 1-15 and not get fired (ok maybe closer to 3-12 but still)

8-5 is pretty good when you remember they are missing their two best defensive players. And they lost to a good team/top defence.

 

[Gene Parmesan]

Earl Thomas was playing.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Missed game yesterday because I was sick but saw some of the highlights/lowlights and the Bengals appeared to give no effort

Yeah the Lewis era needs to end after that debacle

 

[Gene Parmesan]

Won't matter. Mike Brown will go cheap with the hire.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Very true

Still its time to pull plug on the Lewis era (Should have been done years ago)

 

[Hasbro]

Will Watson and Watt’s injuries be enough to cover Bill O’Brien.

Yes.

Yes... also don't forget Mercilus.

Watson publicly said he wanted him back so I doubt McNair/Smith would go against him.

Before this year he was always above .500 and won 2 straight division titles.... would have been a 3rd this year if Watson's knee didn't blow out.

9-7 in the AFC South so that is faint praise. With Jax and Tenn breaking through next year will be a bit tougher.

Yes but for the first time since Schuab they have a legitimate quarterback. We all saw how good Watson was before he went down.

 

[GKJ]

Pete Carroll is writing his own checks at this point

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Has Todd Bowles earned another season?

Coming into year he was dead man walking and while Jets are still looking like a 5-6 win team they have been competitive in games this season and lost some they should have won

 

[InjuredChoker]

I'm not convinced he gets fired. Hunt likes him and he's brought them to the playoffs every season.

they missed the playoffs in 2014.

anyway, i don't think he'll be fired nor should he, even if they lose out.

I think he has. Maccagnan tore down everything around him and its remarkable the team has been this competitive. Literally everyone predicted them to go 2-14/3-13

they missed the playoffs in 2014.

anyway, i don't think he'll be fired nor should he, even if they lose out.

I forgot about that. Anyhow, Reid pushed Dorsey out last summer so i'd like to think his leash got longer.

 

[Gene Parmesan]

Bears, Giants, Colts, Bengals are going to be open for sure.

The maybe group:

Browns, Bucs, Raiders, Broncos.

8 teams and not that many candidates.

Matt Nagy (KC OC)
Dave Toub (KC ST/AHC)
John Morton (NYJ OC)
Pat Shurmur (MIN OC)
Jim Schwartz (PHI DC)
Todd Wash (JAX DC)

I cant see Bucs pulling plug this quickly on Koetter

Rumors are that the relationship between Koetter and Jameis Winston is not good right now. They're obviously not going to move Winston.

 

[Gene Parmesan]

Franchise QB wins the power struggle.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

So that would make two coaches that Winston has gone thru

When does the coach killer rep begin?

 

[Gene Parmesan]

No....Koetter is a bad HC to begin with. The team has regressed.

They fired Lovie because they didn't want to lose Koetter to another Head Coaching gig.

Theres a ton of candidates. You're just limiting it to a few coordinators you like/know.

About time Indy opens up. Pagano should have been canned 2 years ago.

Shurmur's probably getting a second chance this time around.

They fired Lovie because they didn't want to lose Koetter to another Head Coaching gig.

Exactly.... and at the time Winston liked working with him.

 

[Gene Parmesan]

It was really just an example. Stay in your lane.
