NFL Next Coach Fired Odds - The Favorite: Doug Pederson (+325)
With the Jaguars losing to the New York Jets and falling to 3-11 with a putrid defensive effort, Doug Pederson is still the favorite to be the next NFL head coach fired.
The writing looks like it's on the wall for Pederson in Jacksonville as the Jaguars have failed to improve this season. Trevor Lawrence looks like he has regressed, the offensive line has failed to block anyone, and the Jags have struggled to move the football. Jacksonville has scored only 18.3 points per game and is 31st in third-down conversion percentage (33%). Despite the presence of high-profile defensive draft picks, Jacksonville is dead last in yardage allowed per game (396), and yards per pass surrendered (8.2).
An offensive-minded coordinator - Ben Johnson or perhaps Kliff Kingsbury - will likely be jumping at the chance to try and rebuild Lawrence’s confidence. However, the roster construction will need yet another retooling, and Jacksonville remains stuck in a rut of mediocrity. At this point, it’s unlikely Pederson has done enough to salvage his job.
NFL Next Coach Fired - Best Bet: Mike McCarthy (+475)
While Dallas has been competitive without Dak Prescott this season, there's only so long Jerry Jones can continue to watch his beloved Cowboys falter. He's in his 80s, and would love to see another Super Bowl victory. In order to accomplish that, Jones needs to hire a new head coach. A myriad of blunders, including muffing a block punt recovery, in front of the football world on MNF will send Jones into a tailspin. There’s no way McCarthy survives Black Monday at this point. As soon as the season is done, look for Jones to pull the trigger.
Whether he attempts to lure Ben Johnson, Lincoln Riley or another offensive genius to Big D remains to be seen. But, Jones expects his team to be a Super Bowl contender year in and year out, and McCarthy has failed to extract the necessary production out of this roster. Defensive coordinator Mike Zimmer has been a disaster. However, the nail in the coffin will be McCarthy’s inability to generate enough offense with one of the highest-paid QB-WR tandems in the game. McCarthy is my best bet to be the next NFL head coach fired.
