The Bookmaker Sportsbook ran the odds on which NFL head coach would be fired first this year:

For reference, these were the odds for the coaches that did end up being fired last year:

Doug Pederson is also a pretty nice bet at +2500.

If he's fired I win money, if he's not my most hated team is coached by Doug Pederson. Win-Win baby.

Jason Garrett is the eighth-longest tenured coach in the NFL. 6 of the 8 in front of him have won superbowls, the exception being Marvin Lewis. That doesn't feel great.

Our entire season fell apart when Romo got injured. Look around the league, look at the Steelers, there are teams who still make the playoffs when their elite QB goes down. We couldn't win one fucking game! Not one! We somehow managed to replace Brandon Weeden with someone worse. Think about that. Sure, stability can build a good culture. But our culture had Greg Hardy as a "leader in the locker room", and half our defense are pot heads. If these things don't come down on the coach, what the fuck does?

Point is, I'm not exactly thrilled with our coaching situation either. At least you have the hope that something can change. I have no idea what Jason Garret would have to do to get fired.

Yeah but that was a few years ago. How old is Romo now? 36?

The point is that even if Romo isn't there the whole season, 4-12 after a run into the playoffs the year before is unacceptable. If he had been injured in preseason we probably would have gone 1-15.

Coaches are very lucky to still have their jobs after that. One reason they still do is because GM Jerruh is equally to blame, but still.

I like college football.

Just saying if nothing else you can see the top prospects coming out, so you can be informed come draft. Instead of just reading articles and stuff you can see some guys in action.
I'll admit I will check out some games throughout the year to see some qbs though

Eagles gonna land me Leonard fournette :")

Please tell me you didn't already forget the Cowboys ending Week 17 3 years in a row by losing to a division team, missing the playoffs, and ending up 8-8. That was basically the only time in the last decade the NFC East has been worth the primetime games, and Garrett and Romo were there for it all

I would disappoint her all night long with an average not so deep dicking if that's okay as well.

A long time ago the Civil War between Kave's Raptors and BG's Lebron Clev Team threatened to tear the two apart.

But now wounds have healed, and their bonds are stronger then ever.
