Which HCs will get fired/resign?

[RecoveringCowboy]

I put as many choices as possible - you never know. The main risk factors are not making the playoffs and being at a team more than a year.

 

[Joey007]

Fired McCoy, Bradley, Fox, and Ryan.

Keeping Lewis and Pagano because their FO's are far too stubborn to cut bait.

Keeping Chip and Hue because both undertook horrible situations, and will need time to right the ship.

Keeping Bowles because he's coming off a year where they won 10 games. Don't think they'll quit on him yet.

And no way in Hell is Rivera getting fired one year after going 15-1. Shouldn't even be on the list IMO. Keep.

One I'd add to the list of options is Sean Payton. This will be three straight years of no playoff appearances now, and he was on the hot seat last year. I don't personally think he should be fired, but I'd put him on here before Rivera.

And a potential shocker candidate: John Harbaugh IF they finish 8-8 or worse down the stretch and miss the playoffs. Then it will be the third time they miss in four years. It would seem in this case that Harbaugh's recent teams have greatly underachieved considering the talent they have on the roster.

Firings:

Ryan - Failed to develop Taylor (who would've guessed), underachieved on defense, Buffalo has a short leash with its coaches.
Kelly - The Niners situation is an absolute trainwreck. Kelly pulls a Saban and returns to college.
McCoy - Not his fault that half the Chargers roster is on IR, or that the team couldn't get Joey Bosy signed until October. Probably his fault that they have been unable to develop an offensive line in 4 years. 3 years without a playoff berth. Almost certain relocation. Good as gone.
Fox - The Bears have moved nowhere but backwards under Fox. Time for a new coach to pick and groom a new QB.
Bradley - Probably the worst coach in the NFL, given the talent on that roster.

If ever anybody should go, it is pagano. The colts should be in the playoffs this year, but he has not got them executing properly.

My guesses are Ryan, Toilet Bowles, and Bradley. Fox, I think, will get another season. That team isn't as far off as it's record would indicate, Irsay flat out said Pagano isn't going anywhere, hard to see the Niners ending the Kelly experiment that quickly, the Packers have turned it around, Lewis has damning photos of ownership, Jackson is in year one, and Rivera just went to a Super Bowl and was more or less the victim of an awful move by team brass in the offseason. Ryan, Bowles, and Bradley seem to be dead men walking.

Ryan- He would have been in trouble anyways but declaring the Bills the winners of the offseason means getting a playoff spot, adios Rexy.

McCoy-Hasn't done anything and a move means a new HC.

Fox-The Bears just keep getting worse and Chicago will purge Cutler and Fox.

Bradley-with all the hype about their talent 2016 had to be a huge disappointment.

Pagano-Irsay is a loser, criticizing their participation banners and rings will cost Pagano his job.

I don't think Kelly will get fired but I do think he will go back to college.

Lewis will never be fired.

You can't blame Jackson for Cleveland.

Bowles should be safe for another season.
