NFL off-season coaching carousel

[madducks]

The Eagles started a week early today by firing Head coach Chip Kelly.

Rotoworld:
Eagles fired coach/GM Chip Kelly.
VP of Player Personnel Ed Marynowitz has also been fired. The Eagles announced the moves themselves, issuing a terse press release. The announcement isn't stunning in and of itself, but the timing is. It suggests deep discord between the two sides after Kelly made a mess of his roster after winning a power struggle for personnel duties last winter. Kelly produced 10-win campaigns in each of his first two years on the job, but gutted his roster with questionable moves last spring that resulted in an imperfect defense and deeply dysfunctional offense. As a general manager, Kelly seemed to be making it up as he went along. As a coach, he struggled to connect with his players as men, turning many off with confidence that blurred with hubris. The prevailing scuttlebutt had been that Kelly would return to college if canned, but all the big openings have been filled. If Kelly wants another shot at the NFL, the Titans and Dolphins might be his two most logical landing places.

I would expect the Giants to let Tom Coughlin go after this coming week's game.

Apparently Lurie fired Kelly now because he wants to address the team, and if he had waited to fire him until after the last game, he would not have been allowed to do so under the CBA.

Really? I think they give him one more year.

Rumor is he's going to resign on Monday. The Giants haven't made the playoffs in 4 seasons; his time is done.

Mike McCoy and Mike Pettine also rumored to be getting the ax on Monday.

[Judge Jude]

I also expect Coughlin to go; interesting part is if he decides to 'retire' or if the owners have to do the deed themselves.
The GM has been worse than the coach, probably, the last couple of years. Might be smarter to just empty the shelves - missing the playoffs in the NFC Least for 4 straight years with a good QB starting every game is simply malpractice....

49ers expected to can Jim Tomsula after just one season, lol.

Browns start the hit parade by cleaning house, canning both Mike Pettine and GM Ray Farmer. Thanks Johnny!

Thank you again for Harbaugh, Jed York!

The Browns have regressed despite having four 1st round picks (two top 12) over the last two years.

49ers fired Jim Tomsula.

[Erik]

Titans fire GM Ruston Webster. Steve Underwood named permanent president/CEO. Interim coach Mike Mularkey will be given an interview for the permanent coaching gig.

In an about face that was rumored in the last couple of days, the Chargers are keeping HC Mike McCoy onboard.

Tom Coughlin stepping down as Giants HC. Thanks for the memories, coach!

Same reason why Fisher is staying in STL: The owner is focused on trying to move the team, doesn't want the headache of doing a coaching search at the same time.
