That has to be one of the worst contract signings over the past few years. He was great with the Ravens, but injuries seemed to ruin his career, and now PEDs.


Look at who signed him. The colts management doesn't know how to build a team to save its life other than completely tanking for a season thats the only smart thing theyve done since peyton left. They drafted a wr in the first round in the 2015 draft when they had 0 defense. Very smart...

The coaches with the hottest seats, according to Carlyon, are Chargers HC Mike McCoy and Jaguars HC Gus Bradley.

Meanwhile, Lions HC Jim Caldwell, Rams HC Jeff Fisher and Bills HC Rex Ryan all have “warm” seats writes Carlyon.

As for others coaches could end up being in danger of losing their job, Carlyon lists Cowboys HC Jason Garrett, Falcons HC Dan Quinn and Bengals HC Marvin Lewis as three coaches worth watching.

Kind of fucked up for Gus to be on the hot seat. Such a young team on the rise which would be a setback if they let him go.

How lewis still has a job idk

Dan Quinn shouldn't be on this list imo i feel like you need to give head coaches 3 years to get an honest reflection of that they can build.

NFL nowadays has a "What have you done for me lately?" mentality, so it's not really surprising.

Yeah that's the sad truth of it, Dan Quinn is extremely competent especially when looking around at some of the head coaches in the league. If they let him go it only helps the competition, I really think he can build a beast in ATL

Improved the team after an extremely short period of time. Teaching scheme is different than teaching pedigree. Takes time to build a foundation.
