Down they go.... up to 9 vacancies this time around in the NFL. I thought the worst fire was Mike Tice. He was dealt several bad hands and made a run at the playoffs anyway. He should get another gig quickly...

So far it's been curtains for Haslett, Capers, and every coach named Mike!

...and every coach named Mike! Not Mike Holmgren.

He got dealt a bad hand this year, but NO has sucked for years, and they've traded away any talent they had.

Buffalo's opportunity to pick up a better coach. Come to think of it, he could play and improve the team.

All these guys get canned and the Lions gave President/GM Matt Millen (21-59 in five years)a four year extension.
Of course the Lions are owned by Dumb (William Clay Ford, Jr.) and Dumber (William Clay Ford. Sr.).

yeah - I guess Holmgren is safe for now but wasn't it just last year they were ready to ride him outta town on a rail?
To: PMCarey
Sure a coach with the Tice's stellar W/L record and the way he has run such a classy program should get ... oh wait ..WTF???? How can he be responsible for what Fred Smoot does off the field???? He went 26-22 over three seasons despite key injuries, having a low budget for a staff, etc, etc, etc.

Unbelievable, that they would extend Millen like that.
Now the one good thing the Lions need to do is bring in Martz as Offensive Coordinator, not as a head coach.

I agree. Martz is a good OC, but not a good head coach.

I never liked Haslett, but if we could trade the owner away we would be in even better shape. What kind of coach can NO expect to get now, other than a desperate one.

He should get another gig quickly... I hope you are kidding. That was probably the only head coaching gig he'll ever get in the NFL.

This is not a 3-13 football team. Yes they are. They lost 13 and won 3.

The three worst owners in the NFL (in no particular order):
- The New Orleaqns car dealer (Saints)
- The Fords (Lions)
- The Bidwells (Cardinals)
No trips to the Super Bowl and three playoff wins between them in the past 25 years.
