Mike Smith might be saved by his recent success, but only one playoff win may also work against him.

Come on, man! They paid $3M for Freeman, rushed him into his first game and he hasn't played since. What kind of dumbass move was that? If you decide he's worth the money then have a plan...

They forced Frazier's hand by making that trade. He had to play him. You don't trade for that guy and don't play him, while your season goes down the drain. The man got them to the playoffs last year with Ponder at QB.

I am not sure who wanted that trade but it seems like they didn't have a plan. And Cassel is very serviceable, there was no need to get another guy IMO.

I do think Frazier is a good coach, not sure if he will survive but if they're smart they'll keep some stability and fix the QB situation

Rex thinks he'll be fired

http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/g...g-fired-122213

"According to NFL on FOX insider Jay Glazer, Ryan told his players in a team meeting on Saturday night that word on the street is he'€™s getting fired."

I'm sure he'll find work before long. wouldn't he be great on tv?

**Ravenswintitle** · 12-24-2013, 05:14 PM

FWIW

@BillLekas: Jim Schwartz, Mike Munchak, Dennis Allen and Leslie Frazier are goners. Mike Shanahan likely done as well. TBD on Rex Ryan and Jason Garrett

SI's Don Banks; LOTS of changes coming. Bill O'Brien of Penn State seems to be a popular candidate to replace somebody.
no love for Brian Billick???

I could be wrong, but Billick has indicated he does not want to be a Head Coach again. He did make a ton of $$$ when he was Ravens HC, including some years after was let go by Bisciotti. TV analyst is a great gig for a smart guy like Billick, and he doesn't have to put in 12 hour days and put up with the BS... Bc

If Rex Ryan got canned I would love for him to come back to Baltimore. Granted Ryan doesn't seem like the kind of guy to come back to his old job, but a man can dream can't he?

**Ravenswintitle** · 12-28-2013, 06:11 PM

sounds like Rex will survive but it may be a dark day for several other coaches come Monday

I really enjoy listening to Billick on TV.

ESPN is reporting Bill O'Brien to the Houston Texans is almost a done deal

**Ravenswintitle** · 12-29-2013, 01:10 PM

Glazer is reporting fired coaches will include Schwartz, Frazier, Shanahan and a bunch of 'maybes'. Interesting because Detroit would owe Schwartz $12M if they fire him but they're apparently willing to pay it
