NFL.com news: Coaching futures in question for Bucs, Chargers, Rams

Wade Phillips name is being tossed out by commentators .
WP seems better as a good defense coach. He does not seem best suited as head coach.

as long as the Buccaneers don't get Jeff Fisher, I could care less...

I'd hate to have to face Jeff Fisher x2 for the next few years

But what's so great about Fisher?

I don't get his hype. Yes, he was with the same franchise for 16 years, yes he took the Titans to the SB in 1999... but what has he done since 1999? The Titans, just like everyone else in the AFC South division, have been the whipping boys of Peyton Manning and the Colts for a decade.

If anything, Fisher should dread having to face Brees and the Saints twice a year for the next 2 years.

Fisher knows how to build a team and what's already in place in TB; I could see Jeff taking them to the playoffs his first year...

IMO, it will take a minimum of 10 wins to either win the NFC South or make it as a wild card team.

Saints have to be the front-runner to win the division next year.

If Cam Newton doesn't have a sophomore slide, the Panthers will probably improve and be a contender next year.

If the stars and moon are in alignment, the FalcAints will be in the mix.

He didn't have a say so on who got signed or drafted in TN, and when he got a QB he didn't want he threw a tantrum. As to knowing what he's got in TB, he wouldn't really know until he gets to see them in person.

Did he even won the AFC South this century? I just don't see what's so impressive about him.

I agree. He is not a head coach he has proven that time and time again.

Atlanta's DC is taking the same position at Auburn. I think they already have their scapegoat.
