NFL Coaches Fired on Black Monday

Black Monday, occurring after the NFL's regular season, has led to significant coaching changes across the league. Head coaches Doug Pederson (Jaguars), Antonio Pierce (Raiders), and Brian Daboll (Giants) are facing scrutiny following underwhelming seasons, particularly Pederson, who recorded a disappointing 4-13 this year after previously leading the Jaguars to the playoffs. The New England Patriots also parted ways with Jerod Mayo after a 3-14 season, marking a tumultuous transition post-Bill Belichick. Speculation surrounds several franchises, including the Jets, who have already conducted interviews with former coaches. Meanwhile, teams like the Dolphins have opted to retain their leadership despite lacking playoff success. As teams evaluate their future, the outcome of these coaching decisions will significantly shape the upcoming season.
