Belichick gone

Similar as Carroll, they weren't going to restart with a rookie QB and keep a 72+ year old HC.

Bill Belichick lasted 4 seasons after Tom Brady left the New England Patriots for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and he went 29-38 with one playoff appearance: 47-17 blowout loss to the Buffalo Bills in a 2021 Wildcard Playoff Game.

Let's just casually ignore his 8 Super Bowls....

You are ready for a full time reporting gig

In the last 24 hours, Belichick, Carroll & Saban have all been fired or stepped down. That's a combined 9 CFB National Titles & 7 Super Bowl wins.

Tom Brady went 8-9 his last year, maybe we should tap the breaks on putting him in the HOF too.

Is Vrabel an elite coach? His offenses are kinda terrible and his defense is usually nothing spectacular-
He rode a generational running back to the ground and his career record is

54-45 2-3 in the playoffs

This

Vrabel is not that good of a HC. His teams have always been kinda meh. They'll win too many games to get a high draft position but not enough to be contenders.

Honestly by his body language on the sidelines he looks like he's ready to call it quits all together. He always seems disengaged and disinterested. Almost like it's a pain in his ass he has to be out there every Sunday.
Vrabel could be a victim of a good QB who can't win big games. This team was setup to not make the playoffs this year: traded defensive pieces, Tannehill was done, D-Hop on a 2 year deal, and King Henry likely being done.

Tannehill was an above-average quarterback when he had AJ Brown. Without AJ Brown, Tannehill played like a below-average QB that got their coach fired.


NFL coaches with mediocre QBs do not last in the NFL.

I also think the GM/ownership in Tennessee is among the worst.

I look at the Colts, Jags and Titans ownsership/GM situation, and I can't help but think that the Texans should be running the South.

Demeco and CJ caused this. Nobody thought a rookie head coach qb combo could work. Now everyone wants a young coach with a new qb.

JFF changed theSEC into an offense oriented conference and opened up the heisman world to freshmen QBs.

Next draft could be good for QBs so the Jones boys up
North will be replaced in NE and NYG. Pemex, the LSU qb and others will get a shot at being the next CJ.

They could have just given a token interview to another Patriots assistant, Bill O'Brien, who has experience as an HC at the NFL level. Wouldn't have had to spend money to fly him in.

Rule requires interviewing at least 2 minority candidates from outside the organization in person. In person interviews can't start until after the divisional round. Thus, no one can hire right now. Mayo's succession clause in his contract allowed them to avoid that.

Quinn's stock didn't exactly rise today.

With Belichick & Saban available, will Jerry Jones contact one or both of them?

Why do cowboy fans assume Jerry will fire McCarthy? Did we already forget how long he kept Jason Garret around?

Look at Jerry's track history: He fired a legend (Tom Landry) and a coach coming off of his 2nd straight Super Bowl win (Jimmy Johnson). Yesterday's performance was such a disaster that one would expect a "knee jerk reaction" from him.

You don't get a librarian or a nun to captain a pirate ship. The autumn wind isn't a choirboy. THE AUTUMN WIND IS A RAIDER!!!! You need a RAIDER to captain that ship, Madden, Flores, Gruden, not some patriots reject. Raider nation approves of this hire.

Read someone that speculated Peyton pushed for Tennessee to hire him. He may end up being good but that is such an underwhelming hire imo.

Then again so was Zac Taylor. But a guy like Joe Burrow can change the perception.

seems a lot of Fins players hated Fangio.

Harbaugh to San Diego means they will be running the Ravens D with either Wink or the current MeatChicken DC

Philly gonna hire Fangio

now that the best job has been filled this could be a lot more no names after Atlanta hires BB
