or will be soon, as reported by nfl.com:

http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap30...wns-owner-jimmy-haslam-will-fire-mike-pettine

because the key to achieving consistency in an NFL team is to never keep a coach more than 2 years

and to undergo a "rebuilding" phase with every new coach

is he the head coach of the SF 49'ers?
whose old head coach quit to take a lesser job as head coach of a college team? (Michigan)

and I wonder why he quit? didn't he take the 49'er to the Superbowl a couple of years ago?
must be something dysfunctional in the 49'ers front office to walk away? (ie: owner/gm)

yeah, the 49ers going 5-11 is probably worse than the browns going 3-13

AND the browns beat the 49ers. so that alone is reason enough to be fired.

Axed so far:

Pettine (Cleveland)
Tomsula (San Fran)
Kelly (Philly)
Philbin (Miami)
Whisenhunt (Tennessee)

And probably a couple more coming. Will this year be worse than most?
