The guy is incompetent. Injuries, everyone has them. Other teams have more and better records. Bring back Norm!
How's that Gordon guy working out at RB this year? Maybe an OL guy would have been a better selection.
Interesting listening to Fantasy Sports on Sirius yesterday. Basically said only 4 or 5 RB1’s in the NFL. Then use interchangeable players to fill position. Cheaper and you can get better guys on OL and DL.

The whole Charger team, owners, GM and coach are so far in over their heads you just have to laugh. Bring back Bobby Beathard. Team has not recovered from him yet.

Excerpt of the complete story at the link:

Here is the full text of Khan’s statement, which was sent out to the media at 3:20 p.m. Tuesday:

“I spoke to Gus Bradley [Tuesday] to confirm to him that he will continue as head coach of the Jacksonville Jaguars in 2016. It’s evident to see how far we’ve come in many aspects of our game, and Gus deserves a lot of credit for that progress. It’s also evident the considerable work that remains to be done to be where we expect to be at this time next season, which is well above where we stand today. And Gus understands that.”

I read that as “if you don’t win next year....your gone”.

I could still see them bringing in Coughlin in some capacity to the organization.

Any decent coach would be insane to take the 49ers job and deal with Jed York. After the way he treated Jim Harbaugh, they should expected to be treated badly. York and Baalke are malignant idiots.

Tomsula shouldn't have been fired. He wasn't hired to win games. They already had a coach who did that. He was hired to toady to the owner, which he did. He benched a good QB and put in a failed backup.

Tomsula really wasn't even the head coach. He was assistant head coach to Trent Baalke.

Ditto for Jerry Jones.

As much as I detest Jerry Jones, I have to say he is doing better than York.

Coughlin has stepped down.

Welcome Sean Payton, to the Big Apple!

Pagano gets a four-year extension in Indy, at least some sanity prevails.
