Coaching Changes Thread

I'm not sure if that means he's safe or not. Nothing has been released one way or the other. 

 

Gotcha...I'd assume then it's probably similar to the Jags situation and what the Colts did last year...bring in the new GM and then let him make the decision about the existing head coach. 

 

**edit...of course, I know what happens when one assumes so...yeah lol.  A statement could be released in 5 seconds announcing that Wisenhunt also received his walking papers.

Bears asking to interview Broncos’ Mike McCoyhttp://bit.ly/U05x9O  #Broncos #NFL

Cardinals fired HC Ken Whisenhunt. Up to 7 HCs today.

 

 

As I've been reporting, Cardinals very likely to promote assistant GM Steve Keim to the GM position

Interesting that you mention Ken Wisenhunt's name.

 

If Arians leaves for a head coaching job and Ken Wisenhunt is fired, I'd love to have him for OC.

LOL...it happened while I was editing the post :D

I agree.  I think as of now my 2 top preferences, should Arians leave for a HC job, would be Wisenhunt or Greg Knapp (assuming reports are true and he does get fired in Oakland).

Nobody wants Bill Polian???? If it ends up the case with so many GM vacancies, Chris Polian would have taken his Dad down with him for good, kudos!!! :)

Polian is in the position(age/$$$) to pick and choose what he wants to do. There are some places he wouldn't want to go to.

 

If something he likes comes his way then he might take it.

 

It's not like he's 55...

Andy Reid

Norv Turner

Jason Garret

Romeo Crennel

Chan Gailey

Rex Ryan

Ron Rivera

Lots of available seats coming up in the next year or so......

4 for 7 almost 2 months ago. Should have known Whisenhunt was getting the boot.....

Riveria may have save his job with a nice Dec.

Still cant believe Ryan got a vote of confidence.

Jason Garret has deserved a firing for 2 years now, but I refuse to take into account the "Jerry Jones yes man" factor....thats my own fault.....

The Shocking name on the list is Lovie Smith

 

 

ESPN mentioned Arians as a possible candidate in Philly

 

Arians should not take it if Vick is still QB. Vick is a coach killer, IMO.

 

Arians is better off taking a job like the Bears or Chargers with a decent QB that can somewhat read defenses.

Gailey's entire staff also fired in Buffalo http://es.pn/S23NMF

Seems extreme to me from an outsiders point of view of course, I would have drafted a QB, A WR,  A O Linemen or two and maybe a Tight End if I was Buffalo and see what happens, They are still in need a few of those pieces in my opinion but now seems like they need an entire makeover on offense from coaching staff on down

Their mistake was the huge deal to Fitzpatrick.  They have some decent pieces, but will see how the new cook likes them.

@mikecwright: Keith Armstrong interviewing w/Bears for HC job, according to league source.

 

Falcons Special Teams Coach - Keith Armstrong

 

The chiefs are also interviewing him apparently

 

 

Hate to say it but he is used for the Rooney rule. Happened to Jim Caldwell and Leslie Frazier a few times as well. Here is his bio: http://prod.www.falcons.clubs.nfl.com/team/coaches/Keith-Armstrong/37c548f7-ea99-48a8-acdf-46bd037574ff

“As I’ve told everybody who has asked over the course of the season, that the answer is, ‘Could I do it?  Yeah.’  Would I?  That depends entirely on the family and other considerations,” Polian told USA Today.  “So right now, it doesn’t look like there is anything in the offing.  And I’m fine with that.  I’m very happy with what I’m doing now"

    • Agreed. Tom always brings thoughtful perspective to the forum and I enjoy reading his posts. 
    • Hey, Tom!    Good to see you posting again!    I know you like to show up this time of year to offer your insight.      As I like to tell you every year, I’m sure you’re posting as often as you can,  but I think many here would love to see you post more often!   This website is always better when you’re posting more!   
    • We, might... or we might not... or we might lose someone else to injury. It's just what happens in the league. If it's not one player it will be another. It's a violent sport and players will miss games.  You know how I feel about AR. I still think he needs improvements but the sky is the limit with him... I don't think there was anybody higher on him than me here. But first thing - he just needs to stay healthy.    Downs had a very promising rookie season. Hope he makes a jump in year 2 too...  Honestly. I'm not high on this TE group. The rumors about Woods are not great. Ogletree and Mallory IMO are JAGs at best. Which is OK for where they were drafted but they are not game changers. We need better... I guess if you believe in Brock Bowers we should be hoping he's there for us to take in the draft.  Cross will need to make the jump because it looks like we might be losing Blackmon. He had some flashes at the end of the year, but he still needs to show consistency over a prolonged period of time. I think Raimann is already very good. I'm not too enthused with the way Ballard has handled the DT position...    Steichen was already doing wonders with what he was given last year. IMO the hope is that AR stays healthy and is able to unlock the full potential of what Steichen envisions in his offense. 
    • I think I need to clarify something…,  I’m NOT suggesting Irsay isn’t filthy rich.  That the Colts aren’t sound financially.     All I’m saying is that from time to time the Colts might have cash flow problems.  Life as a small market team.   Nothing wrong with that.  The Colts do this (The “0” singing bonus) for a reason.  It benefits them.  And I think it’s smart business.   That’s all.
