Norv Turner, San Diego Chargers - Reportedly needed the help of his QB to retain his gig after last season. A win or two in the playoffs or bust for Turner I'm thinking.



2. Andy Reid, Philadelphia Eagles - The dream team failed miserably last season. Reid has had a good run in Philly since 1999 and has collected a boat load of talent but maybe he's been there too long? Fans want a title and many think the Eagles have to make a serious and deep run in the playoffs for Andy to keep his job. I think they'd have to fall on their faces as bad or worse than last year for Reid to get canned. Who better could they get?


3. Jason Garrett, Dallas Cowboys - Jerry Jones like to win rings and patience isn't a quality he's known to have an abundance of. Yeah I think Jason is in trouble in Dallas if the Cowboys don't make a lot of noise this season.

Of these three I think Turner has the most heat on him and is in the biggest danger of receiving a pink slip this season. Opinions Outlaws? Any coaches under more pressure than these three?

I think Reid has the most pressure on him, but I agree that they would have to do horribly again for him to be canned. He accepts responsibility for the team which is great but if Eagles don't make the playoffs this season heads will roll and most likely it will be his. He is a great coach but I just don't think he is the right fit there anymore.
Turner as well needs to produce but I can see him staying if they don't make the playoffs.
Don't know what to say about Dallas. They are a mess. Jerry will have a hissy-fit if they don't make the playoffs.

Dallas is indeed a mess.

If Jerry would ever realize that the only thing he brings to the table is his wallet the team would prosper.

But JJ wants a yes-man, and ultimately, a fall guy.

Jones needs to declare himself coach and stop wasting the time of otherwise talented coaches.

Jerry isn't running the show in Dallas, Stephen is. Been that way for a couple years now.

Jerry's face still pops up everywhere, but this is now stephen's team

Tough question. Let me eliminate one here though Now. I have said this before, and will say it again. Reid is at NO risk. Reid will leave when Reid wants to, not due to ownership firing him. In fact, I don't think the GM could fire him, since Andy actually has player responsibility and basically runs the team. Now, I do think at some point, Reid moves up to the front office and stops coaching, but it will be his move and decision.

I personally think Turner is at the greatest risk. He has had teams that habitually under perform. They continue to be hamstrung by an idiot at GM, and always disappoint in the end. I think Turner will be fired soon, if they don't do something. Unfortunately, the division just got alot tougher with Peyton there, and that will only make it worse for Turner.

Turner, Garrett...........................................................Reid; I agree with Phic, Reid is really in no danger at all.

And you are somehow implying that Jerry's son wearing a hat that says "Executive Vice-President" somehow removes Jerry from the equation?

Sorry Mike, I don't buy it.

Stephen may be doing the leg work but Jerry is still calling the shots.
