This year the Coaching Carousel starts spinning early – the first 2 HC changes in the NFL already happend in September:
On September 29th Rams HC Scott Linehan was replaced with Jim Haslett. Under Linehan the Rams were 0-4 and got outscored 43 -147, since then under Haslett the Rams are 2-0 and outscored their opponents 53 – 31. So, it seems Pat from FanIQ was wrong claiming that Haslett won’t be able to change anything…
The very next day (September 30th) the Oakland Raiders, or rather Al Davis, replaced HC Lane Kiffen with Tom Cable. Under Kiffin the Raiders were 1-3 (scoring 78-101) since then under Cable: 1-1 (19-47).
Finally this Monday (October 20th) Mike Nolan HC of the San Francisco 49ers got replaced with Mike Singletary. After a 2-1 start into the season the 49ers lost their last 4 games being now at 2-5 (158 – 196). Next game is already this years rematch vs the Seahawks (first game in Seattle the 49ers won in OT 33-30). Even though it’s the least worse case of the three – by the numbers – Craig Massei from SFI thinks it’s the right move at the right time
Thanks for the reminder go to RUWT?
In the college Ranks it’s not quiet either… but that a topic for another post…
