There isn’t a definitive, guaranteed list of “which coaches will be fired” right now, but there are clear categories: coaches already fired, and coaches widely reported to be on the hot seat or likely candidates on “Black Monday” and beyond.

Below is a forum-style Quick Scoop that matches what you described: speculative, multi‑view, but grounded in what’s publicly reported rather than wild guesses.

Which Coaches Will Be Fired? (Quick Scoop)

This is a snapshot of the current NFL “hot seat” and firings, not a crystal ball. Any future moves are possibilities, not guarantees.

Coaches Already Fired

These are not predictions; these are officially reported moves.

  • Brian Callahan – Tennessee Titans (HC)
    • Fired during the season after a rough start and poor overall record across two years.
* Titans finished with one of the worst records, triggering another reset at head coach.
  • Brian Daboll – New York Giants (HC)
    • Let go in-season after a 2–8 start and repeated blown leads; his overall record ended well below .500.
* Defensive coordinator Shane Bowen was also fired later, with the OC stepping in as interim.
  • Raheem Morris – Atlanta Falcons (HC)
    • Fired shortly after the regular season despite a late winning streak and an 8–9 finish.
* Falcons also moved on from GM Terry Fontenot, signaling a broader reset.
  • Key Coordinators Already Out
    • Raiders: OC Chip Kelly and ST coordinator Tom McMahon dismissed after a 2–9 start and special teams struggles.
* Rams: ST coordinator Chase Blackburn fired following a late‑season loss.
* Jets: DC Steve Wilks out amid a historically bad season for takeaways.

Big Names Frequently Mentioned as “Likely” or “At Risk”

These are speculative but heavily discussed names in current reporting and hot‑seat columns. Nothing here is guaranteed.

  • Kevin Stefanski – Cleveland Browns (HC)
    • Despite two playoff seasons and multiple Coach of the Year awards, recent stagnation and losing years have fueled “it might be time for a split” talk.
* Several reports frame a breakup as “expected” or “hard to envision him staying,” but no official firing has been announced.
  • Pete Carroll – Las Vegas Raiders (HC)
    • The Vegas experiment is widely described as “not working,” with conflicting philosophies and poor results; multiple outlets suggest a likely one‑and‑done.
* Some coverage frames it as a “dignified farewell” rather than a brutal firing, but the bottom line is that his job is considered very unsafe.
  • Mike McDaniel – Miami Dolphins (HC)
    • Listed on some hot‑seat and Black Monday pieces because of disappointing finishes and questions about ceiling in big games.
* Still seen as innovative and attractive; if he were let go, he’d likely be hired quickly, which complicates any decision.
  • Jonathan Gannon – Arizona Cardinals (HC)
    • Talk of ownership not wanting to pay multiple fired coaches at once has some insiders guessing he might survive, but his future is still openly questioned.
* Injury issues and a thin roster are frequently cited as mitigating factors for keeping him.

Hot Seat vs. Safe Seat: How Media Is Framing It

Reports and opinion pieces roughly sort coaches into three buckets.

  • “Very Hot Seat” (Most Talked‑About Firing Candidates)
    • Kevin Stefanski (Browns) – performance vs. expectations gap, offensive identity issues.
* Pete Carroll (Raiders) – one‑and‑done speculation, philosophical disconnect in Vegas.
  • “Could Happen, but Not a Lock”
    • Mike McDaniel (Dolphins) – upside vs. late‑season collapses being weighed.
* Jonathan Gannon (Cardinals) – roster excuses vs. fan frustration and long‑term plan.
  • “Likely Staying, but With Changes”
    • Dan Quinn (Commanders) is expected to be back, though staff changes are anticipated.
* Shane Steichen (Colts) is reported as being retained, again with likely staff or front‑office adjustments.

Why It’s Impossible to Say “Exactly Who Will Be Fired”

Even with leaks and “hot‑seat rankings,” owners sometimes pull a surprise extension, and other times they fire a coach no one thought was in danger.

  • Final decisions depend on:
    • End‑of‑season meetings, locker room sentiment, and locker‑room exit interviews.
* Contract terms and money (e.g., paying multiple fired coaches at once, as mentioned in Arizona’s case).
* The available replacement market: if there’s a preferred candidate or not in the current hiring cycle.
  • As of now:
    • Confirmed : Callahan (Titans), Daboll (Giants), Morris (Falcons) and several coordinators are already out.
* **Most rumored** : Stefanski and Carroll are the two most commonly labeled as “likely to be fired,” with McDaniel and Gannon in more “could go either way” territory.
