Firings that have already happened:
-Steve Spagnuolo out in STL
-Raheem Morris out in TB

Firings that may happen:
-Norv Turner in SD
-Even though Jerry says Garrett is safe, who knows.
-Jim Caldwell (Thank you Riverman)

What the Colts do IRT drafting Luck and keeping or trading Peyton is going to dominate the offseason. Matt Flynn deciding to GOAT it up can guarantee some QB needy team will overpay him and be stuck with mediocre for a long time

[Riverman]

Jim Caldwell is probably gone too.

RGIII will make things interesting as well.

Draft class is pretty solid but could have been better if Barkley decided to leave. Chance that Jones from OU comes back as well now.

[kevin21]

Jeff Fisher seems to be the name being linked with the Rams.

AJ Smith also for the GM spot since Billy Devaney got the boot along with Spags.

[thedeezy]

The class of Luck, RGIII, Barkley and Jones would have been insane.

Lots of chatter in the Detroit papers that Scott Linehan may gets some HC looks this offseason, hopefully it doesn't happen.

Any free agent lists?

I know Brees is the big ticket. I can't imagine him leaving NO.

Ray Rice, Forte, Lynch are big name RB FAs.

WR have a good list Desean, Wayne, V Jackson, Welker, Bowe, Colston, Lloyd, etc.

OT: Grubbs, Nicks, Saturday.

DL: Mathis, Campbell, Abraham, Mario Williams.

LB: Lofton, Tulloch, Spencer.

DB: Grimes, Rogers, Finnegan, Carr, Landry.

Obviously some could have been signed during the season that I don't know of.

Add Cliff Avril to the DL list

No mention of the Polians out in Indy? That is huuuuuuge.

[capone0]

It's mentioned in the other thread. Lol, someone should take the off-season news from the wild card thread.

[sublime]

three chances for a dumb team to eff themselves, always nice.

this is truth

[Needle77]

Not entirely sure that signing Ray Rice would be effing themselves. The Maurice Jones-Drew contract seems fine as long as he doesn't fall off the face of the earth next year, his contract would have been fine.

I'm assuming Rice is gonna get a similar contract and is probably as valuable.

[five4suited]

I don't think signing forte would be effing yourself either.
