NFL: 2020 Hot Seat Thread

[sigma six]

Not that I know for sure, but people keep telling me that Norton is a proxy for whatever Pete wants to do. So is this really on Pete, who just signed an extension through 2025 yesterday?

Contract extensions do not guarantee job security

They don't under normal circumstances, agreed but Carroll is also a team executive and presumably Schneider's boss.
Then there's the part where they were responsible for the best era in franchise history, by a mile which buys a lot of leeway. I figure Pete has a job until he himself says otherwise.

He's also loyal to his guys which is why Norton will be around until the offseason at least. He doesn't seem good at making adjustments in game and probably deserves to go even if his guys "love him".

At this point most likely to see teams ride it out. Which assistant or coordinator would a team replace their current HC with? Not bringing in an outsider at this point. Will conduct a full search once the season ends.

chicago, Detroit, Lynn, etc who would take over for them that if they get fired?

Chargers job is probably the best job out there, assuming Lynn gets canned (he will). I think Eric Bieniemy should take that job.

I don’t think this is a bad take.

Agreed. Chargers would be a good place to start.

You got part of your wish @Blackhawkswincup

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Hopefully he is truly allowed to call it with no interference

We have seen in past around league where coach almost immediately gets back involved or even retakes calling when things are not going well or simply because they cant stand not having control

Bill Lazor? Get ready for 3 straight goal line fade calls to Allen Robinson on every ****ing red zone trip.

God he was such a hack in Miami. A guy who strongly refused to use his QB's strengths too.

 

[PanthersPens62]

Lazor was indeed one of the many clowns that kept Tanny from developing properly.....sounds like Tanny was glad when Lazor left.

Ryan Tannehill doesn't sound like he'll miss Bill Lazor

Sounds like an improvement over what we have seen from Nagy offense

Doubt it. It's basically the exact same offense and that's why they hired him. Lots of short passing trash to the flats and screen plays. No audibles either.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Pace + Nagy need to go

Entire front office and coaching staff need to go

No one should be kept

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

I wish McCaskey's didn't have that no firing in season policy

If there was ever a time to pull plug on mistakes its now with no fans in stands and season over

At least it would show fans a new day is coming

First time the Lions have been shut out in the Stafford era too.

There's no way Patricia should survive the season let alone go into next season as the coach.

XFL legend PJ Walker threw 2 HORRID redzone INTs and somehow the Panthers still win by 20.

I was watching redzone and i initially misread the score on the ticker and was like "well of course the Lions won 20-0, the Panthers were starting some nobody." Imagine my surprise when i seen it again and read it properly.

As a defensive coach you expected him to attack the QB like BB makes all young QBs he faces.

The only thing he attacks is the buffet line.

 

[BSHH]

The Detroit press has been openly gunning for Patricia's (and Quinn's) head even before today's loss. The Lions can always be counted on for an unpleasant surprise, but this should be Patricia's last game. The only thing which could help him keeping his job is the fact that the Lions should fire their GM, OC and DC as well.

See, when a team cans a coach with an admittedly limiting ceiling generally they hire a guy who is better.

They won't fire him though.

 

[PanthersPens62]

McCarthy deserves to be fired after that abomination last night.

As someone who had to watch McCarthy ruin Rodgers prime and hates the Cowboys.

I hope he stays forever.

Caldwell's available, they could always get him back.

With Patricia, Quinn, and BOB gone the remaining guys who should be on the hot seat for me are Gase, Lynn, and Marrone who I have a seriously hard time seeing back with their teams next season, and Nagy, Pederson, and Zimmer who probably still get another shot.

I'd keep an eye on Fangio.
