NFL Coaching Carousel: Who's Next on the Hot Seat?

The New Orleans Saints have fired head coach Dennis Allen after a disappointing season marked by internal discord and a seven-game losing streak, culminating in a loss to the Carolina Panthers. The decision, made by owner Gayle Benson, is notable as the Saints have historically avoided midseason firings. Special teams coordinator Darren Rizzi will serve as interim head coach. The Saints' struggles, including injuries and locker room discontent, suggest a broader organizational reset rather than a quick fix. Meanwhile, other NFL coaches like Antonio Pierce and Doug Pederson are also on the hot seat amid their teams' poor performances.
