    Anyone else tired of the rhetoric black guys are only being fired #nflracist? Obviously "they" are better at being athletes than coaches. Not hard to figure out why....

Ahh that’s right, he’s done a damn good job with them too 

Has a professional sports team ever gone as full retard as the Oakland Raiders? Mike Mayock as your GM?? He’s never stepped foot in an NFL building! He’s a TV dude and now he’s going to run a football team? Holy shit

Lynn is having a nice season with Chargers.

The shit storm started before the firings. Even Jaws was playing the racial angle yesterday. 

Lewis deserved to be fired, several years ago. Bowles has a shitty team, but he had 3-4 years to do something, anything. No thoughts on Joseph. But the Wilkes thing tells me ownership did a shitty job. If he was that bad, why even hire him?

 

Yeah if your firing a coach 1 year in that speaks to a failure in the head office more than anything

My favorite part is watching dumb ass teams hire coaches that were just fired by other teams. 

NFL gonna NFL

Like the Patriots did with that Belichek guy and the Chiefs did with Andy Reid?

 

The only guy other than Williams that the Browns should even consider for the job should be Kitchens.  I have a hard time remembering whether a lot of these coaches come from the offensive or defensive limbs of the tree.  Let me know when a defensive one gets canned so I will know who I can root for the Chiefs to replace Sutton with.

Only if all the new hires are old white guys, including a bunch of retreads, in which case they probably have a point.

Jon Gruden is in complete control.  There's no way he's bringing in a legit GM that may have an ounce of authority.

This 100% , Gruden knows the owner is not football savy at all , so why would he want a GM who isn’t going to be nothing more than a yes man to him. For better or worse this is chuckys ship moving forward for the foreseeable future

It's fun to watch, I read an article thinking I'd see where Mayock worked in the nfl before, nothing, just interests from other nfl teams, as in only the Redskins. This is so much fun.

Within the span of a few posts we have people bitching about NFL teams only hiring retreads and also people laughing at the Raiders for not hiring a retread

There's a huge gap between a retread (i.e., Jeff Fisher) and someone who has no experience whatsoever (Mayock).

Expect Jemele Hill next 

Im not a huge fan of many of Mayock's predraft evaluations, and consider him a mediocre evaluator even against the mediocre competition that is the NFL draft pundit. But the dude works his ass off and probably has an extensive a list of contacts as anyone in the game, which makes him a good choice as Grudens "Call ___ and get this done" guy

If I were an NFL GM I'd go straight to Andy Reid's offensive staff, close my eyes, and pick one. Anyone will do.

I thought the Raiders former GM did a fairly good job. They were approaching Cleveland levels of longtime futility before he got there and he turned it around fairly quickly. Del Rio just made the unfortunately decision to fire their OC after they went to the playoffs and they seemingly never recovered.

What an incredibly brave tweet.  The five that sucked were deservedly fired and the two that did well were retained.

Wrong.  And “everyone” is not paid a million bucks to know who is a good coach.

The Jets have requested to interview Eric Bienemy.

Welcome to Surly

Looks like Zimmer/GM Spielman are staying another year

 

#Vikings owners Zygi and Mark Wilf sat in on the final team meeting today, as they do every season, and both reiterated their belief in coach Mike Zimmer and GM Rick Spielman, sources tell me and @RapSheet. "There won't be changes here," one source said.

Wow, the Raiders not only have to continue to making their own franchise a complete joke, they also have to ruin the NFL Network's draft coverage for everybody.

Happy New Year to all the fired coaches. Don't fret. You will surely be recycled to other clubs in the new year.

I thought there was a campus party thing that got him "forced" out.

He took the USC job. They may not have been sad to see him go but he officially left for USC

I guess that's good enough to keep getting him rehired.

At least they’ll all get interviews, because teams have to.

Lulz at Marvin Lewis recommending his buddy Hue Jackson for the Cinci job. That would be a great hire!

Good grief. Hue is arguably the worst HC in NFL history. He's terrible. Bungles would be stupid to hire him. 

Marvin Lewis had a good run, but nobody survives three straight losing seasons. 

Vance Joseph is the first HC in Broncos history to have consecutive losing seasons. He should never have been hired. 

interesting to see Kubiak's name out there - if he can coach again he needs to come back to Denver.
