NFL 2025

They do bring in a lot of new talent. Offensive and Defensive Co-ordinators generally get about 50% of the jobs, while established guys get the other 50%. Teams are wary of getting guys with too much history and baggage - it's not like the NRL where guys can bounce to their 3rd or 4th team without much concern. Rare to see a head coach find a 3rd home. McCarthy will be one of the very few, I can't see Doug Peterson getting another gig.
-
Patriots hired first, and took Vrabel in what was a no-brainer. They knew who they wanted, ticked the boxes early on their "must interview" and then hired him.
-
Surprisingly competent from Kraft and the Pats. They could have stuck to Mayo for another season, but pulled the trigger and now are in a much better position. Now they should have just hired Vrabel last year, but at least they've recognised their error.
-
i still maintain firing a first time HC after 1 year is an average call. But, if they know Vrabel is better, then it's actually really good business (fixing a mistake 12 months ago as you say).
Takes guts for these guys to publicly admit they got it wrong
-
I am very much in favour of firing a guy after one year if it's not working.
It's a sunk cost.
You are only hurting yourself further the more you delay
A lot of the feedback on Mayo was that he had completely lost the locker room and just was not suited to the head coach role.
-
Washington win with a last second field goal that goes in off the upright.
good game

How nervy was Gonzalez before that kick! More nervous ticks than Steve Smith

The record isn't necessarily important in the first year. IIRC Troy Aikman had a bad first season under Jimmy Johnson and it turned out fine. But if the players aren't behind him that is a deal breaker

i take back what i said earlier in the season, Sam Darnold is still exactly who we thought he was

defence has also been shithouse so far though too
-
Vikings O-line should be apologising to everyone though, they are getting smoked and the Rams aren't even sending big numbers.

Apparently Jerry Jones has spoken to Deion Sanders about the Cowboys job

Hah. If they get him early he could sell the house to get his kid at quarterback. Would be epic destruction
-
And it's back to the bench holding a clipboard for Sam Darnold.
Rams defense dominant, a playoff record 9 sacks.
-
totally one sided game over by half time, Darnold smashed in the big games he was under pressure in
