Re: How often does firing an NFL coach make things better?

The best example i can think of is Andy Reid with Philly...all those NFC East Championships, Super Bowl appearance...then he had that one terrible year, and he was fired. Did he deserve to be fired? Thats the kind of things i wonder about.

The Jets have all kinds of problems, but is Rex Ryan really to blame? Does he deserve the firing that is coming??
IMO Reid was fired for not winning a Super Bowl. The crappy season was just the last straw. Of course, I'm not Jeff Lurie, so that's just my two cents.
