Only way I see Coughlin keeping his job is if the Giants can beat the Redskins and the Packers lose to the Bears, getting them in the playoffs.

Technically Fox and Lewis are lame ducks (I think) so they can't really be fired, their services just won't be retained, I believe both will be gone.

Coughlin is the only one that will probably still have a job at the end of the season, but the Fisher situation will be interesting to follow. The owner already said that he expects both Fisher and V.Young to honor their contracts next year. We'll see who forces their way out of town.

Coughlin will be 65 in August and one year left on his current deal.

Regardless of this season's outcome, I would not be surprised if Mara and Tisch ask him to retire so all parties can exit the relationship gracefully.

Coughlin is stubborn. Who knows if that scenario will play out

I expect John Fox, Marvin Lewis, Eric Mangini, and Gary Kubiak to be looking for work.

Hot Seat
John Fox (2-13) - Not retained, but not fired
Marvin Lewis (4-11) - Not retained, but not fired
Eric Mangini (5-10) - Fired, don't be surprised if Holmgren makes himself a head coach. Mangini definitelty isn't in Holmgren's long term plans either way
Gary Kubiak (5-10) - Fired
Jeff Fisher (6-9) - It is my understanding that he can void his contract at any time. I think he might do so and become the Cowboys head coach
Tony Sparano (7-8) - Fired, new regime in the front office. Might survive and get cut next year
Tom Coughlin (9-6) - Survives. Still has enough Super Bowl clout to get one more year

Interim
Jim Tomsula (0-0) - Won't keep the HC title, but might stay
Eric Studesville (1-2) - Won't keep the HC title, but might stay
Leslie Frazier (2-2) - Won't keep the HC title, but might stay
Jason Garrett (4-3) - Likely fired. He won't stay head coach. The fact that he was at one point being groomed as the heir apparent would undermine the new coach and he will clean house of him
See above, for my individual comments on each

Not only will Mangini be fired but the best he can do will be as possibly Gatorade coordinator. Seriously ... he should find himself a college gig somewhere just so people forget about him for a while.
