He fired Mike Smith for a lot less (he had a 66-46 record!), and the Falcons window is very small. Matt Ryan is 35. Smith was also the superior drafting "influence" to Dimitroff. Most of the big Q/D picks are already off the Falcons. Maybe that is it, exactly. Ride it out with Dimitroff, Quinn, and Ryan for another 2 years, then flush the whole thing and start over. No use bringing in another GM and HC when your franchise QB only has a couple years left. I dunno, just guessing.
First Round Bust Posted September 9, 2020 Posted September 9, 2020 Marrone will oversee the taking thru week 14 and the last 1-2 games some assistant likely a minority will be the interim. Seems coaches get fired over the bye week - so the next scalp is NYJ Gase fired after 11/15 game against Miami right after game #10 and the start of bye week. Cincy hangs on to coaches for long streches, BoB in Houston is the GM and coach so that likely would be a right-after-the season decapitation, and it could be a long season in Philly as well...
Ridgewaycynic2013 Posted September 9, 2020 Posted September 9, 2020 O'Brien in Houston, if the GM works up the estones to give the jerk the heave ho. 🤔 *😁 2 1 2 1
LabattBlue Posted September 9, 2020 Posted September 9, 2020 I don't think Marrone is going anywhere. He is their tank commander. I'll go with Gase.
maddenboy Posted September 9, 2020 Posted September 9, 2020 Marrone. But only if he is messing up the tank by winning games. Gase wont be the first one fired. because Jest dont need to tank for Trevor. If I were betting money it would be Patricia first. 2

Why take chances on not securing the #1 overall pick. It could be a fight to the end between these two. If you fire a coach after around week 14 or 15, it's easy to name an interim coach for 2 to 3 weeks, like the Bills did with Lynn. You name someone after week 5 or 6 , if the problem really was coaching, the new guy could win a bunch of games, and then it becomes hard to justify firing him. (wasn't that what happened in Cleveland with Freddy Kitchens?) Where as in most of these situations you're probably better off hiring a brand new coach and maybe GM too in the off season along with a new staff where you have more choices. Lets say they wanted Frazer, they're not getting him mid season. You only options are promote from the staff or someone who already was unemployed. Granted it did work out with Marv, but those are more the exceptions. All things considered, think there's less mid season firings these days in the NFL compared to 20 to 30 years ago. Actually RW may have led the league in this category! 1
Malazan Posted September 9, 2020 Posted September 9, 2020 I'm going with Bill O'Brien. He's been making power plays against people in the org for years. If Hopkins remains amazing in Arizona and the corpse he got in return doesn't light it up...I could see him finally getting the axe. 3 3

Plus no top tier coach is gonna want anything to do with the jets anyways. Gase is Kotite 2.0
billsbackto81 Posted September 9, 2020 Posted September 9, 2020 Gase,......Halftime of Week 1 Or Marrone,.... Week 4 after all the starters demand a trade.

Albany,n.y. Posted September 9, 2020 Posted September 9, 2020 Belichick after Kraft finds out it was Bill who tipped off the vice squad in Florida. It won't be a happy ending. 1
billsfan89 Posted September 9, 2020 Posted September 9, 2020 Some common ones will be Marrone, Patricia, Gase, and Dan Quinn are all on the hot seat but I think that the types of coaches that will lose their jobs in season will be due to a player revolt. I think Quinn is the least vulnerable to that out of those four. That leaves Gase, Patricia, and Marrone as the most vulnerable to an in season firing. I think that Marrone is most likely to get fired in season. Gase has at least some of the locker room and I think Patricia has enough talent to float just close enough to .500. to avoid a firing early. Whereas the Jags could be 1-4 or 1-5 and pull the plug. Whereas I could see the Lions at 2-3 and hanging in there. I think other coaches like Zac Taylor, Matt Nagy, Kliff Kingsbury, Anthony Lynn, and Vic Fangio are also on the hot seat but generally speaking they will finish out the season as typically the coaches that get fired in season are the ones where the players quit on them and I don't see that happening with any of them.

Sig1Hunter Posted September 9, 2020 Posted September 9, 2020 I’ll just go with Stefanski or whoever Cleveland’s coach is. I think that’s always a safe bet. Did you guys know that Cleveland once fired Belichick?
Ethan in Cleveland Posted September 9, 2020 Posted September 9, 2020 Very interesting takes so far. 1. Patricia - week 8 2. Quinn - week 10 3. Nagy - as soon as they are elminated from playoff race 4. Gase - end of season 5. Marrone - end of season
Kirby Jackson Posted September 9, 2020 Posted September 9, 2020 Good topic!! I guess that I’ll go with Gase at the bye week.
