Coaches on the Hot Seat

It's that time of year.

McDonald's 3rd Degree Burns Lawsuit Hot:

Joe Philbin
Greg Schiano

Tampa will be interesting, because I think they can finish strong. I imagine that would create a more positive view of Schiano, even though this year has still been an unmitigated disaster. Miami might very well limp into the playoffs but even that might not be enough to save Philbin. I expect a complete organizational overhaul down there.

Getting Into My Car During The Middle Of August Hot:

Mike Munchak
Leslie Frazier

Tennessee is one game out of the playoffs, but facing a three game road trip and change of ownership. Munchak almost certainly has to make the playoffs to save his job. Minnesota knew what they were doing when they refused to give Frazier a long term extension after Adrian Peterson ran him to the playoffs. Neither one of these guys ever should have been a head coach in the NFL.

Suspicious Of My Wife Having An Affair Hot:

Gary Kubiak
Mike Smith
Mike Shanahan
Rex Ryan
Dennis Allen
Jason Garrett

Kubiak maybe gets a pass because of his health issues, but they better start winning some games down the stretch. His tenure there is really quite underwhelming when you consider how much talent they've had (Eight Years, Two playoff appearances). I don't buy the vote of confidence for Smith in Atlanta, especially since their losing streak has no end in sight. Shanahan's tenure in Washington has been incredibly shitty outside of last year's miracle playoff run, and how that ended has given rise to this year's disaster. Some would argue that Rex has NYJ overperforming but he's still on very thin ice up there. I think he needs to secure that final wildcard spot to stay on. Any Cowboys coach will always be in this category, and who really gives a shit about Dennis Allen?

Cooling Down But Not Yet Out Of The Woods:

Ron Rivera

Lovie Smith was also 7-3 last year. Gotta finish.

I think Dennis Allen is in good shape actually. Oakland is competitive in a tough division, and they have shitty talent. They won't make the playoffs, but I would argue that Allen is getting the most out of the talent he has available.

Rex Ryan is in a similar boat to me. They have a shit sammich at QB, and no team is overwhelmingly successful in that situation.

100% agree Mike Smith is not completely safe.

Is Conklin enjoying it anymore? He just seems unhappy - I know he's intense & rather dour naturally, but just seems more so when they struggle.

They have a new GM, so Ryan has to finish strongly to stay. Plus he'd be entering the final year of his deal and teams hate having a lame duck head coach. It's either let him go or give him an extension and I don't think they do the latter.
