The first axe falls. Falcons are in the HC market,

Took only 2 minutes into black Monday for him to be fired. Will BB be next?

You have to figure whoever made the Young over Stroud pick would lose his job.

Trading up all those picks to get someone who looks quite a bit shorter than Drew Brees... yikes

Accept the owner probably won't fire himself. All the reports indicate Reich and company wanted Stroud and Tepper overruled them. Then when it backfired he decided to fire the coach, throw a drink on a fan and then for good measure fired the GM. But felt best he stay on as owner of the team.

Tepper is an absolute tool. Only relevant because it removes a team that BB would actually coach for.

I almost entirely agree except Tepper seems like the kind of guy who would just throw around an extra ten mil just to get what he wants.

Owner won't fire himself.

He is definitely the one, reportedly, who made that happen

They just handed the Bears 15 years of potential SB caliber window.

Not really surprised that the Falcons fired Art Smith... 7-10 for the last three years kinda said the team was going no where...

Washington firing Riverboat Ron? New owner, you knew he would want to bring in one of his own guys... for better or worse, it should have been expected...

Half expecting Kevin O'Connell in Minnesota to get the boot as well...

O’connell would shock me…lost Cousins and it was over after after that.

Another team maybe but not Chicago, they'll find a way to Bear it up. Guaranteed.
The seasons come and go with the regularity of the tides and almost as much change but Bear ineptitude and Jete stank remain universal constants.

At one point the Pats were arguably not only the worst NFL franchise, but the worst professional sports franchise period.

Zeke Mowatt - my memory is both a blessing and a curse.

Super prepared. Outstanding sign for the franchise. I expect Kraft will diddle and doddle when decisions could have been made weeks ago.
