I know there are SO many things that have to go wrong to go 0-16...
But how do you drop that, Corey Coleman? HOW?!

Watching Saints-Bucs at a casino. Ingram and Kamara willing their team downfield. The emergence of those two as a monster rush tandem has completely changed that team. And to think they started this year riding on the hopes of Adrian Peterson.

Caldwell out.

Big point here for the franchise.  Probably the only hire Quinn will get to make as GM, and probably the last shot they'll get to make a head coaching hire with Stafford in his prime.

John Fox is out as the Bears' coach after Chicago finished last in the NFC North for the third consecutive season.

Welcome to my season,Kizer actually did well comparitively to his last 6 or so outings.That pass could not have been thrown any better.If Kizer played like that w/o the brain farts Browns would have notched a win or two.Move over Detroit

It seems like after a crazy college coaching offseason, with multiple high-profile jobs coming open, that this is an abnormally high number of NFL jobs to open in the same year...

Is it just me, or is this abnormally high?

Ravens can clinch a spot in the playoffs with a win over the Bengals. Which is sort of amazing to me considering that roster is pretty much trash and that QB they handed a boatload of money to is the definition of mediocre.

Outside of Belichik, is there a better coach in the NFL than John Harbaugh? Pretty amazing to me that one guy had two sons that are just flat out amazing football coaches.
Harbaugh is probably top 5-7 but no way. Belicheck is by far the best coach of the free agency era. He's won w/ or without Brady. If Garappolo starts this season they probably go 11-5. 
If Harbaugh doesn't make the playoffs next year he's fired. The fanbase isn't screaming for his head for the sole reason that there really isn't anyone else out there but they've lost patience with him. 
 The Ravens beat no one this year (the best team they beat was the Lions and the AFC North gets 2 free wins against the Browns yearly). They also probably won't make the playoffs if they don't get rid of Flacco. Flacco used to always remind me of Eli, avg-to very good and has a knack for winning playoff games on the road. Surround him with a good team and you win things. He also did a few things extremely well: stayed healthy, throwing the 10-20 yard deep out and was arguably the best deep ball thrower in the league. However since the leg injury he's been broken. His arm looks shot and he constantly underthrew deep balls this season. Its almost like he's either afraid to plant his leg and step into throws (or maybe never fully recovered from the knee injury). Cut your losses, there are maybe 5, 1st round QBs on the board plus Cousins, Tyrod, Bridgewater and Alex Smith perhaps available.
