Next HC

Hmmm.... I think that Bleacher Report article has missed the boat somewhere. They show four HC openings with potentially one additional one in Washington with no projection. I will contend that there will be at least seven total HC hirings this year..... and maybe more.  The average tenure for a HC in the NFL is slipping downward each year. Teams are getting "restless" earlier and are looking for progress quicker. The average "turnover" rate among HCs in the NFL is about 25% per year.  That equates to about eight per year. (The actual 'computed' average is about seven..).

Anyway, I think we'll see several more than the article mentions. With the dissatisfaction being expressed across the league, I wouldn't be surprised to see eight or nine......

OTOH... I am frequently wrong about these things. So, there's that...

Well....6 so far.  I think Bellichick survives, gives up GM duties and brings back Josh McD.

You could be right. However, Vrabel's star is rising on the Patriots horizon... 

There are three others who I really thought were in danger along with Vrabel. Daboll (Giants); Saleh (Jets); and Eberflus (Bears). Have you noticed the "talk" surrounding Steelers HC, Tomlin..??  Something could still happen.... although it gets increasingly less probable...
