Authority figure? He barely seems like a peer to the players. More like an adolescent.

If the Falcons start out 0-6 (entirely possible), Raheem could be a decent bet. I'm not sure Arthur Blank would fire a black guy midseason though.

The 1st 7 will be clipped. Zac Taylor at 9/1 seems tempting. Especially since Cincinnati has started slow each of the last few years.

Are you saying this guy doesn’t scream authority figure?

Tomlinson should be 1000/1. The Steelers just DO NOT fire head coaches. The only possible way is if Pittsburgh starts out like 0-8 and looks like the 1980 Saints while doing so.

His teams are softer than baby shite. I'm not surprised.

But he'll make someone a damn good OC.

We don’t know that. When have they been that bad?

Mike Tomlin almost in the top 10 is absurd. Not that I don't think he's done great the last 10 years, but there's no way the Steelers fire a coach. They may let their contract run out, but never fire them.

How quickly things can change.

This time 2 years ago, almost, Mike McDaniels was the next best thing in the NFL. The offense was humming, having just beaten Denver 70-14, or something like that.

Now, he’s obviously on the hot seat and favorite to be fired.

They haven’t. But what they accomplished under Noll set a certain mantra. Tomlin is not going anywhere until HE wants to. The Steelers are one of the best run franchises in all of sports. 3 coaches in 55 years is basically impossible.

Completely possible if you choose to not fire a coach for repeatedly going .500.

He’s had 3 .500 seasons in ~20 years, only one of those in the last 10 or so, and never had a losing season.

Teams that constantly fire coaches with that type of success usually end up perennial 4-12(13) teams.

I love this by the Swamptards. Apparently, St. Jeaux has racked up every one of these impressive stats the 'Tards keep reminding us of daily in a complete coaching vacuum and by calling audibles on every play.

Defensive backs should be the worst in the league and haven't won a playoff game in 24 years. Getting in the playoffs is not the accomplishment they are striving for.
