Coaching hot seats

[mike_usagisan]

As much as I like to check out the power rankings, playoff seedings and MVP odds, now's the time to speculate on which coaches are on the hot seat.

NFL coaching hot seat watch for 2 likely fired, and 4 more in trouble

Whose seat is hot in the NFL? And who is already on their way out?

www.sbnation.com

SB Nation has these guys on the hot seat:
Jonathan Gannon - Arizona
Mike McDaniel - Dolphins
Sean McDermott - Bills
Raheem Morris - Atlanta
Zac Taylor - Bengals
Kevin Stefanski - Browns

What do you think? Who is going and who gets to stay?

I'd clear them all out. But McDermott, Taylor, and Morris probably get another year. I actually wouldn't be surprised if they all get another year.

Mike McDaniel	+225
Dave Canales	+1800
Kevin Stefanski	+1800
Kellen Moore	+1800

I think McDaniel is right.

I can't see Canales. CAR still has an outside chance to make the playoffs.

Kellen Moore? Really? [I remember Off the Grid absolutely loved him as a backup to Brady back in the day.]

I'd be sad to see McDaniel go. On Sunday Dan Quinn was huffing and puffing but McDaniel was just wandering about like he was some nerdy crypto billionaire. Some of his coaching decisions are very weird, but the Dolphins are entertaining to watch.

SB Nation has these guys on the hot seat:
Jonathan Gannon - Arizona -FIRED
Mike McDaniel - Dolphins - REPORTED to NOT being fired
Sean McDermott - Bills - STAYING
Raheem Morris - Atlanta - STAYING
Zac Taylor - Bengals - The GM should be fired, Taylor isn't a bad coach in my opinion.
Kevin Stefanski - Browns - Should of been fired long ago. Front office is dumb as hell so STAYING

What do you think? Who is going and who gets to stay?

I think McDaniel is criticized too heavily. This is the first year that the results with Tua in the lineup have been bad, and Tua seems to have regressed individually more than on account of poor coaching, IMO. And even in past years the results weren't AWFUL without Tua. I think a lot of older people want to see him fail because of the way he dresses and all that, but I think he's a good coach with a good offensive system. They have a GM opening so alignment is the most important thing though... if the new GM wants "his guy" then they should do that to make sure they have organizational alignment.

Bengals ownership is to cheap to fire a coach and have to pay two guys. History shows their track record on that. Taylor is an offensive coach and they're excelling overall on that end even without Burrow and the bad OL. I doubt they'd make a move on him. If they did have an inclination to actually spend on the coaching staff what it'd cost to pay two head coaches, I think they'd just keep Taylor and let him hire a strong new defensive coordinator.

Stefanski seems on his way out with CLE. Not even that he's a bad coach or anything but they're kind of a mess and might just need a shakeup. They did him no favors with the QB situation drafting Gabriel and then Sanders later, creating a media **** storm. It's given a lot of uneducated analysts an excuse to take unfounded shots at his handling of Sanders and create a culture of chaos around the team.

Morris I think sticks. ATL has done some really good things this year. Good production from their stud offensive building blocks. The young defenders they've drafted seem to be coming along well too. Of their 7 losses, 4 were one score games (2 of them in OT). I feel like their players are overall being developed well.

McDermott would be really, really bold of BUF. I think he's escaped some accountability by being able to just say that 3 of the last 4 years the playoffs losses have been to KC because it's easy to rationalize that as just a "KC is really good" problem rather than a "it's our own fault" problem. And the other year was to CIN after the Hamlin situation that he seemed to handle really well in the locker room. I think this is the first time BUF will take a real hard look at themselves and not just chalk it up to KC being KC and they're fine themselves just need to keep trying and break through eventually. My guess is McDermott sticks but next year there's real pressure on him.

I don't really follow AZ closely enough to judge Gannon. The record is bad at 3-7. They started 2-0 but then lost 5 straight one score games, some of them pretty heartbreaking fashion. Followed it up with a MNF win but now back to back blowout losses. After these last two games, the noise is probably louder. Lots of defensive players drafted to a defensive coach with poor team and player development results is a bad sign for him. Feels like they could maybe clean house this offseason, especially if in position to get a new QB (Murray doesn't seem entrenched there).

Canales having the Panthers +500 makes firing him an insane suggestion. No idea who would bet on that. Moore might not be great but one of the worst rosters in the league. Nothing fire able for him yet IMO. Hasn't really been given an actual chance yet.

Ross fired the Phins GM.

That typically indicates that the HC is staying unless the players flat quit. Miami beating Buffalo really increased McDaniels stock. Losing Hill has to factor in somewhere too.

 

[Brotherblues]

If Thomas Brown lands a HC gig in this cycle, do we get a 3rd round pick?

I don't want anyone to be poached as it weakens us, just thinking of a silver lining.

Currently he's our passing game coordinator and was interim HC on the Bears last year. Everything I've read about him is glowing.

What do you think? Who is going and who gets to stay?

​

Jonathan Gannon - Arizona - Either the coach or the QB is gone after this yea
Mike McDaniel - Dolphins - Based on the rumormill, inclined to say that MMcD stays
Sean McDermott - Bills - He's not going anywhere... Bills aren't opening a new stadium with a newb HC
Raheem Morris - Atlanta - is gone... team has regressed
Zac Taylor - Bengals - one more year, cuz mike brown isnt going to pay dead money on a coach
Kevin Stefanski - Browns - gone... unless the haslam levels of insanity are even greater than said

McDermott is the Dak Prescott of HC's. Definitely good enough to help a team into the postseason.

LaFleur in GB should probably be on the hot seat. Standards are high there and next year is probably his final chance to win/get to a SB.

Tomlin is an interesting case. I could see a "mutual parting of ways" instead of outright firing him.

anyone think Pete Carroll might be one and done in Las Vegas?

This cycle, no. The rule requires a coach to have been with his old team for two years.

Brady isn't getting involved in that kind of spin cycle.

Should have gone for Bill.

 

[Pape]

Brady isn't getting involved in that kind of spin cycle

that team was inept the other night ... can't believe we lost to them

 

[Ross12]

anyone think Pete Carroll might be one and done in Las Vegas?

Yeah I don’t really see a vision on that team

 

[signbabybrady]

I just chalk it up to a week 1 thing

 

[reflexblue]

Not this year because of his pedigree. Hes won a lot

 

[reflexblue]

I'd be sad to see McDaniel go. On Sunday Dan Quinn was huffing and puffing but McDaniel was just wandering about like he was some nerdy crypto billionaire. Some of his coaching decisions are very weird, but the Dolphins are entertaining to watch.

I hope he doesn't get the sack either, hes a terrible coach and that keeps the fish from being a contender

Can't rule it out when you're as bad as them, but they were 4-13 last year and didn't make much of a "turn this thing around quickly" push on the roster. They've maybe looked more inept than they expected to be at times, but I can't imagine any scenario where they expected to be materially better record wise. I don't think you move on from a coach with a pedigree because a team EXPECTED to suck maybe sucks a little more than you thought.
