The Higher the number, the more likely the coach is in trouble.

Every game starts a new evaluation.

In the wake of the surprise firing of Chip Kelly

At least the writer admits in his opening line that he is not paying attention.

I don’t need to see the list to know that Chuck Pagano here in Indianapolis is gone baby gone. Hope the GM Grigson gets the boot too.

"In the wake of the surprise firing of Chip Kelly in Philadelphia,"

Surprise? Most sports talk shows I've listened to had him as gone after the season.

I'm thinking Caldwell is a 10!

I don’t think Caldwell should be fired, but he’s certainly had the smell of death on him since everyone above and below was replaced. I’m not a fan of the revolving door style of head coach replacement that seems to prevail in programs that don’t quite get rebuilt after years of stinking.

And of course, the greener grass approach will prevail — fired coaches will be recruited into other programs, resulting in a big coaching swap meet at the end of the season.

Right now 18 teams are out, and only two that are currently outside looking in have any shot, if they win and get help (Colts and Steelers). The Colts lost their franchise QB and have done pretty well with his backup. The Cowboys have had, uh, mixed success with a very similar situation. Firing the head coaches should require more than losing a key player to injury.

Denver and Cincinnati by contrast are going to postseason without their big arms, and will probably struggle — what then?

Todd Bowles’ job is secure, now that the Jets have made an impact on the playoff race.

Why fire the coach with one game left? it’s not as if that one game will make a difference.

Sigh. Tomlin needs to move on.

Lovie Smith fired after the Bucs are 26th in points allowed.

Losers on ESPN cry racism.
