8 so far now. Yes, I can see at least one opening ; should Bills, Steelers and Packers lose.
I'd be pretty surprised if the Steelers or Packers make a move here. The Bills may be different -- there are only so many times you can bow out early in the playoffs with Josh Allen as your QB and survive, I'd think. If the Steelers let Tomlin go, he'd have options within nanoseconds, including from teams whose coaches were otherwise safe.

Re: The annual NFL coaching carousel

Lions have reportedly approached McDaniel to be their OC. If we didn't, we should have got in there first. If teams are clamouring to make him an OC, I doubt he gets another immediate HC slot as they see him needing more development before being a HC again. Personally I think he's still a bit naive for a HC.

Re: The annual NFL coaching carousel

My guess Matt Lefleur’s seat is hot after tonight. Packers have a new President and isn’t tied to this coach. He could tell the gm to make a head coaching change.

Re: The annual NFL coaching carousel

Not an unbelievable scenario. Lafleur may have peaked 3 years ago, and with the North being a very tough division, it's not that he's bad, they may just think they can get better. But if it doesn't happen Monday (they need to get into the interview cycle while candidates are available) I don't thin it happens this year.

Re: The annual NFL coaching/gm carousel

I don’t see the Packers moving on for anyone available - except for Harbaugh. Or Tomlin if he were available.

You'd think Tomlin was fed up of coaching in the freezing cold by now. 😁

Re: The annual NFL coaching carousel

The only possible changes that could still happen:

Packers move on from Lefleur and the Bills fail to reach Superbowl and move on from Mcdermott.

9 openings is high.

Which is why I doubt they get fired. You fire good coaches because you think you can get better. If there are already 9 other vacancies, chances are the better guys are already taken.

I would think KK has to get a shot somewhere with 9 openings

Re: The annual NFL coaching carousel

Once Harbaugh signs today; the dominoes will start falling. Especially after Monday; which when in person interviews can be done for people stilll employed and are in the playoffs. I think.

This hiring season could see many retreads get another chance.
