Given this point of the season, there's a few categories I see: The expected-to-be-fired & surprise firings

 

Which coaches lie where in your mind?  And who are your guess replacements?

 

Expected:

 

49ers

New coach: Adam Gase

 

Bears

New coach: Dave Toub; GM: Chris Ballard

 

Jets

New coach: Doug Marrone GM: Ryan Pace

 

Oakland

New coach: Art Briles (Harbaugh ends up in Michigan)

*my out of the box hire, but this could be Bowles destination

 

Bills

New Coach: Darrell Bevell

 

Falcons

New coach: Rex Ryan

You don't put Pep Hamilton in San Francisco?

 

Pep and Gase are the two sweethearts in league circles so he could definitely be there.  Gase is my guess though just out of pure speculation.  

 

Those two will definitely land with storied franchises.     

 

Also, I think Bevell with Idzik in New York is a likely scenario.  They get an offensive minded coach tight with the FO so they know there won't be another Rex situation.

If Hamilton doesn't get the Niners, you think he stays in Indy?

 

Also wondering if you've looked at which coaches are likely to be delayed by playoffs (other than the Wild Card window) and which will be immediately available?

 

I was also thinking D philosophies. Bowles/Horton would be 3-4 guys going to 4-3 places.

    • I see progress and improvements. We aren't the same team we were even at the beginning of this year. You want to harp on the past while I am all about the present and future. Do I know thinks are going to be great moving forward? Actually I don't but I prefer to look at the good instead of the bad. Since he is surely going to be the QB the rest of this year barring injury, I am going to root for him to succeed instead of fail. I always said if we are going to finish at 500 for the year I prefer we win at home since I will be there and want to see wins and crying opposing fans like the cowboys. So far mission accomplished. Now we have to show we can win on the road.
    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
