You can add Todd Bowles to that list - the Jets fired him right after yesterday’s game.

How long does Elway have? Hard to fire a legend, but what has he done? (BTW, I really don’t care about NFL anymore, but this is an interesting management question)

four black head coaches have been fired.

Now that they can get hired like anyone else, they can get fired like anyone else.

They have finally decided that winning is more important than affirmative action.

All 4 black coaches deserved to be fired.
So did a few white coaches.

Now former Bengals coach Marvin Lewis: “It’s been a lot. This season’s been a lot. From (the season opener in) Indianapolis, the ride home on the bus, all the way through, it’s been a lot.”

Huh? WTF does that mean? Is this guy a retard or something?

This should be considered a good sign for equality in the NFL coaching ranks, and I'm being serious - the hiring and firing of black coaches is not considered a big deal in the NFL anymore, it's as routine as it is for white coaches and that's the way it should be.

Zimmer not in the list, yet.? The Vikes need to at least unload the GM, Spielman. He’s been drafting OL players for years and this is what fans get?

Will the usual suspects in the sports media cry racism? Will LeBron say this is more evidence NFL owners are like slave owners?

I saw this coming once the “democrats” took control of the House again.

Marvin Lewis should have been fired five years ago and would have been if he was white.
