    Smith should not have been hired by the Falcons in the first place. He only had 2 seasons as OC at Tennessee, but a rich daddy.

    I thought it was hilarious the way he went at Dennis Allen at the end of the game for scoring the TD on that kneel down play. If I was Dennis Allen, I'm telling him, you suck and GTFO my face.

    I don't see how BB stays in NE at this point. It was a good run for the cheater now time for a new chapter. Hell, if I was 75 and had the legacy and money he has, I'm hanging it up to enjoy my golden years.

    Atlanta could be interested in Belichick if he's available per reports, and Vrabel could be interested in the Patriots opening.

    That is odd to me when older Coaches set for life with money still go through the grind of the job. And it's a time consuming job with travel. They really have to enjoy it to do it into their 70's. Kudos to them.

    Let's see.....Tomlin is 51-52 so another 20 we'll have Mike on the sidelines over 70 and he will have a Playoff win;)

    Belichick is 72 and it's been said he wants the all-time NFL record for wins held by Don Shula. At his age, I don't think he'd want to go into a rebuilding situation, so that narrows the prospects, like the LA Chargers, for one.

    IDk if he said it in a statement, but it was reported he would be willing to give up GM duties, yea ok, lol. I could not even imagine taking on something like that, being his boss and hearing the groans on every decision i made lol.

    Chargers seem to be the likely landing spot for Harbaugh after tonight but if he doesn't want it, it's the most complete team for Bill. Not sure I can see him uprooting to the West Coast at his age. I think he has been an East Coast guy most of his life.

    Can you imagine the Hoodie with the LA media? That would be comedy gold!

    I didn't see that coming. The Titans played hard for him with that beat down of the Jags on Sunday. Without that the Steelers would be home watching the playoffs on TV.

    Great coach. Wish he had ran Beast Mode at the goal line against the Pats and he would have another SB.

    Carroll is to remain in the organization as an advisor but the Seahawks decided to oust him as head coach. Vrabel and Rivera fired, Belichick might be gone and if Tomlin decides to step down what a big turnover in head coaches the last couple of days.

    Like I've been saying, Tomlin would have been fired by any of the other 31 teams with his last 7 years of underperformance. Steelers ownership has accepted mediocrity and not having a losing season as the standard. How that clown keeps his job is a head scratcher.

    Yes, although it's been 10 years. He has won more playoffs games than Tomlin in the past 7 years. Ain't saying much but 1 is better than none.

    From Carroll's last interview it sounded like he had 100% decided he was coming back for another year. I wonder if Carroll's family asked for this; kind of like taking the car keys away from your Dad, because he can't drive at night anymore.

    I wouldn't want my 72 year old father working outside either.

    Didn't he just get beat by the Steelers?? It's why they didn't make the playoffs.
