Monday, Bloody Monday (U2 have been fired)

[jersey cubs fan]

Black Monday off to a hot start. Nagy, Zimmer and Brian Flores are out.

[d_money]

Pace too

[Bertz]

 

WOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

[jersey cubs fan]

Fangio also out

[bukie]

I like Brian Flores, got a raw deal there in Miami, somehow made that team competitive two years straight when it looked like the laughing stock of the league.

I don't know anything about him but he seems like he'd be a quality candidate this offseason.

Dan Campbell fired Anthony Lynn

[UMFan83]

Joe Judge is George Costanza. He spent the last few weeks intentionally trying to get fired (I can only assume by some of the things he did), but didn't.

 

Maybe he should get "caught" coaching the Jets or something to finally get canned.

Dan Campbell fired Anthony Lynn

Kinda saw that coming when Campbell took over play calling duties a few weeks ago.

[UMFan83]

Bloody Tuesday?

Bloody Tuesday?

 

Well they're a stronger option now, but luckily doesn't look like theirs and Bears candidates are overlapping much.

The Culley firing actually legitimately pisses me off. Knew it was going to happen too. He clearly wasn't the most qualified for the job, as he kinda came out of nowhere. But I'm sure it was a lifelong dream to be an NFL HC, and he definitely did as good of a job there in Houston as anyone could have with a horsefeathers roster. Very clear to me when he was hired that it was done to try to prove the organization isn't racist w/ it's racist owner and at the time this lawyer dude was being accused of being racially motivated to take down Watson for wanting to leave (I don't believe this FWIW). Was very clearly a "see we hired a black coach!" move, and they gave him one of the bottom 2 rosters in the league, but didn't have the benefit of actual draft picks like the Lions. Then they fire him after 1 season that I would call very respectable, which included developing a potential QB of the future.

 

This is the [expletive] people talk about with the NFLs "diversity". Black coaches typically get horsefeathers jobs, short leashes and few second chances (at 66 he's done being a HC).

To your point, Mike Tomlin is literally the only black HC in the whole league right now. Brian Flores will probably get another HC job, but that's such a bad look. The 2020 Texans went 4-12 with Deshaun Watson, the fact that Culley went 4-13 without him is a legitimate accomplishment.

Exactly, and it's not like he had any benefits of what could have been a loaded draft class with the #3 picked earned from 2020 because they traded all their picks away.

 

I know it takes 2 to tangle. Culley probably knew what he was getting into, and part of me can't blame him. It's a lifelong dream probably to be an NFL HC. And he got the chance right before retirement. But that doesn't make it right.

2 to tangle? Lol

At least 2. Can be more, unlike the tango.

Raw, while I know this doesn't absolve your point or anything, good for Culley at least.

Somebody else wrote he signed a 5 year contract with only 2 years guaranteed and it was assumed by many it would be one and done.

If he knew going in it would be 1-and-done, then cool whatever from his end of it. Still shitty for the Texans to make him a token hire, if there was literally nothing he could do to keep the job.
