NFL Coaching Hot Seat: Are Carroll and Stefanski in Danger?

As the NFL season progresses, several coaches find themselves in precarious positions, with two already fired and others at risk of losing their jobs.

With December arriving, the NFL coaching landscape is as tense as ever, with several coaches facing uncertain futures. This season has seen multiple dismissals, including Giants coach Brian Daboll and Titans coach Brian Callahan, contributing to the turmoil.

  1. Pete Carroll (Raiders)

    • 2025 Record: 2-10
    • Career Record: 302-173-1
    • Previous Ranking: NR
      Carroll’s tenure with the Raiders has taken a downturn, from high expectations to mounting losses. His decision to bring in Chip Kelly as offensive coordinator was controversial, leading to his firing just weeks into the season.
      Despite being the oldest coach in NFL history, many believe his team is heading in the wrong direction. Recent reports suggest that Carroll’s job is now in jeopardy.
  2. Jonathan Gannon (Cardinals)

    • 2025 Record: 3-9
    • Career Record: 15-31
    • Previous Ranking: NR
      After an encouraging start, Gannon’s squad has faltered, leading to scrutiny over his decisions, such as the mishandling of quarterback Kyler Murray’s situation.
  3. Raheem Morris (Falcons)

    • 2025 Record: 4-8
    • Career Record: 33-55
      Morris finds himself on a falling team following a series of heartbreaking defeats.
  4. Kevin Stefanski (Browns)

    • 2025 Record: 3-9
    • Career Record: 43-53
      Stefanski’s continued struggles at the quarterback position, compounded with previous contract extensions, have raised questions about the Browns’ direction moving forward.
  5. Zac Taylor (Bengals)

    • 2025 Record: 4-8
    • Career Record: 50-60-1
      Taylor’s coaching has been under fire this season, especially with his team’s defense consistently ranked last in the league. His position seems secure, but further failure may sway the organization’s decision.
