49ers have fired Jim TomSula after only one season.  Browns have told Mike Pettine and GM Ray Farmer that they will not be coming back next year.  Tom Coughlin is expected to announce his resignation from the Giants tomorrow.  And I'm hearing rumors out of Indy that Chuck Pagano will be gone within 48 hours.

It's official. Coughlin has stepped down.

So the teams vying for a new HC are:

Miami
San Francisco
NJ Giants
Cleveland
Indianapolis (probably)
Philadelphia
Tennessee

Reportedly Fischer gets a bye in STL because of a possible move to LA, otherwise he'd be gone.

I would think Miami would have an edge over SF, Cleveland, and possibly Tennessee.

Dysfunction from the top is a big consideration with top coaches. The Browns and Niners are disgraces and I guess we come in 3rd. So, doesn't matter what package the Niners or Browns offer for Payton, he has to approve and he will not.

Colts are pretty screwed up too and lack talent minus Luck.

That probably means the Colts will fire their GM. It's his fault anyway, the team is sorely lacking in talent.

EDIT: Nevermind, he is staying too. I guess that's what happens when your owner snorts Oxy.

I don't think it's too much of a stretch to say the Colts GM must have some incriminating pictures of Irsay, because that guy is terrible.

The guy has mug shots and a noted drug addiction, how much more incriminating can they be? I can only imagine a donkey is involved.

Bucs have fired Lovie Smith.  I'm surprised by this move, but then again I'm not surprised.  For a guy who preaches fundamentals and discipline, his defenses constantly committed some horrendous penalties that would negate bin plays, and overall played like dog shit

It's very surprising. I'd say it even more surprising than the fact the Colts kept Chuck Pagano and that was a surprise. I have to wonder if Winston and he didn't get along or they have an inside on someone else that they feel is a better option.

Interesting  ... just read the Dolphins might have been the reason Lovie Smith was fired.

Just when it seemed all of the Dolphins coaching candidates had been revealed, another has popped up. And it might have to led to some major upheaval in Tampa Bay.

The Buccaneers surprising fired coach Lovie Smith late Wednesday night after just two seasons in Tampa Bay.

It’s already being speculated that the Bucs made the moves so they could promote offensive coordinator Dirk Koetter, who is popular in the Tampa Bay locker room and helped develop rookie quarterback Jameis Winston.

But did the Dolphins help spur the moves?

The Tampa Bay Times’ Rick Stroud reports that “Koetter is in play as a candidate for the Dolphins.”

As the Dolphins interest peaked, the Buccaneers ownership and general manager Jason Licht “felt they had to move quickly,” according to the Times.

And now NFL Network reports that the Dolphins have requested to interview Koetter.

Koetter has also been linked to the Eagles opening, but he hasn’t interviewed for the job.

He was previously offensive coordinator of the Jaguars and Falcons and head coach at Boise State and Arizona.

Dolphins head executive Mike Tannenbaum, who was an agent in between his time with the Jets and Dolphins, was Koetter’s agent.

Tannenbaum also represented Cincinnati offensive coordinator Hue Jackson, who is scheduled to meet with the Dolphins on Sunday.

You’d have to think Koetter is most likely to remain in Tampa Bay as the Buccaneers coach after the Bucs cleared the way for his hire by firing Smith.

Tampa Bay still has to go through an interview process and follow the Rooney Rule.

I think we are both right.  Koetter has an amazing offensive mind.  He's brought a burst of energy to the locker room and has a great relationship with Jameis.  The players think very highly of him.  At this point, it's about making sure Jameis develops into the superstar he is expected to.  Losing Koetter would've impeded that development, and the Bucs simply could not allow that to happen.  Now the only questions are, who runs the defense and how are they going to turn around the sorry group?

That shocks me a bit as well. I wonder how much control they are giving him. That seemed to be a big issue in Philly.
