I always was against Philbin but I thought he did a good job this season with a revolving OL throughout the season.

Don't know what to say about Lett. He was in charge of coaching garbage.
Risen, I'm betting Philbin being let go is a result of some O-linemen talking to the FO. Not sure what else would've caused that given the injuries.

Sounds like next year is MM's last if the same result happens.

Btw what is with all the defensive guys getting purged?
The same result would be 12 wins and a playoff win which will likely save his job again.

Stephen, please give OL coach Bill Callahan a blank check to come back. Hire Travis Frederick as the assistant OL coach...

The other option is to hire any offensive coaches from the Niners...
didn't callahan just re-signed with the browns..?

i heard bears were hoping to hire callahan.away..before he re-signed up again....

No! This is just the beginning. My goodness the season was over just 3 days ago.
agree. The silence from Jerry has been deafening. Heads are rollin and many more to come. How long til Mike McCarthy decides he wants out? I mean we just canned his guys. If I am him, I am seriously wondering if I should be here another year. Is this what Jerry is doing? Forcing Mikes hand? Does Jerry really want Sean Payton or Quinn as HC? If we want Quinn, Jerry might get very desperate.

If the NFL was fair, any HC that does not have the authority hire his own staff should be exempt from blame and it should be laid squarely on the shoulders of the GM.

Cowboys HC's are immediately undermined by Jerry Jones the minute they sign that contract. If you are given the responsibility to build a successful team then you should have the authority to hire the guys you want to train them.
