Who's gone at the end of 2005?

[Drederick Tatum]

Here’s my guess of who might be safe and who might be gone at the end of the season. I think Cohwer , Fisher and Gruden will need to deliver something to their fans or they could be in trouble considering fan expectations and tenure in the league, especially for Cohwer and Fisher.



Must at least have a winning record to survive

Dick Vermiel (Kansas City Chiefs)

Brian Billick (Baltimore Ravens).



Must at least make the playoffs to survive

Mike Shanahan (Denver Broncos)

Mike Holmgren (Seattle Seahawks)

Mike Tice (Minnesota Vikings)

Mike Martz (St. Louis Rams)

Jim Haslett (New Orleans Saints)

Mike Sherman (Green Bay Packers)



Safe – Fans will give them a pass even with a bad season

Bill Belichik (New England Patriots)

Andy Reid (Philadelphia Eagles)

Jim Mora Jr. (Atlanta Falcons)

Mike Nolan (San Francisco 49ers)

Jack Del Rio (Jacksonville Jaguars)

Romeo Crennel (Cleveland Browns)

Norv Turner (Oakland Raiders)

Nick Saban (Miami Dolphins)

Marty Schottenheimer (San Diego Chargers)

Tony Dungy (Indianapolis Colts)

Mike Malarkey (Buffalo Bills)

John Fox (Carolina Panthers)

Marvin Lewis (Cincinnati Bengals)

Lovey Smith (Chicago Bears)

Dom Capers (Houston Texans)

Tom Coughlin (New York Giants)

Denny Green (Arizona Cardinals)



Could be in trouble if team does badly

Bill Cowher (Pittsburgh Steelers)

Jon Gruden (Tampa Bay Buccaneers)

Jeff Fisher (Tennessee Titans)

Herm Edwards (New York Jets)

Steve Mariucci (Detroit Lions)



Might be inclined to hang it up if things go badly

Bill Parcells (Dallas Cowboys)

Joe Gibbs (Washington Commanders)

I disagree on Billick and Gruden. I think both are very safe and I believe Vermiel may hang it up after this year no matter what. Everyone else, I'm inclined to agree about.

I dont know about Cowher, and Billick, THats been the ravens best coach, and in Cowher he just took them to AFC championship game, i dont think there gonna give him up for one bad season

WOW there is a few I disagree with there. Vermeil may leave on his own and if he has a bad season (which he won't) he wold be welcomed back if he wanted to come back. Sherman may be safer than you think especially if Favre retires. Cowher is definately safe and you could probably put Fisher and Gruden in there as well. Parcells won't hang it up if things go badly because we are gonna rock this year.
