    Coaches on the hot seat in 2011

    As final cuts are just around the corner, it is very important that head coaches and general managers throughout the league make the right decisions, because their heads may be on the chopping block at some point this season. Not all head coaches and GMs are on the hot seats, but I am going to tell you who my top 5 are heading into the 2011 season. If their teams are not vastly improved or do not make the playoffs, they could all be looking for new jobs in 2012.

    Great article Terry. I agree with it all. Sporano while on the hot seat, has the Fins playing well in the preseason, we will have to see if it carries over when the games count.

          Turner always has good teams and always loses games he has no business losing. He gets teams to a certain level and can't get them any further. Owners and GMs eventually lose patience.
          I've made up my mind. Don't confuse me with the facts.

          I'm the most reasonable poster here. If you don't agree, I'll be forced to have a hissy fit.

            I heard an interview with the Eagles GM the other day. He said the goal of the Eagles this year is not the playoffs, it is to WIN the Super Bowl.

            That is a VERY HIGH goal & if the Eagles fail to even get to the Super Bowl, I could see Reid getting fired.

                thanks for the comments guys, I knew the Reid addition would create a stir. I truly believe that if they don't win the Super Bowl, he could be gone. If they make the Super Bowl and don't win it, that's the only way I see him staying. But if they lose out in the playoffs, I really think he'll go.

                  If AJ Smith got the boot in SD , I'd love the idea of him coming to Buffalo. I highy doubt he gets canned, and there's even less of a possibility that he would come here.

                    No way Ralph would ever hire him again. I can't say I care either. I think he has a personality similar to Haley.

                      I'm in no way surprised with Reid being on your list. Frankly, I'm surprised he is still around in Philly. I do believe he is a good coach, but he can't win big games. I completely agree with your standpoint on him. I like all your choices. Good article!

                        With all the hoopla surrounding the Eagles this pre season, you may be right. I don't see why the expectations are so high for the Eagles myself, especially if VICK struggles.

                          I'm pretty sure that Andy Reid owns the hot seat. Seems like every year he's mentioned... I think it's obligatory in articles like this.

                            MY WIFE SAID THAT!!!

                              Think its a premature to put Hue Jackson on the hot seat already, would put Gailey up there well before him.
                              COMING SOON...
