Mike Tomlin is currently the only black coach still employed, so expect to hear the racism accusations and Rooney Rule any time now. Adam Schefter is already tweeting it.
I'm already seeing rumors that over half of the job openings will be filled by black coaches, just so we can have this same conversation four years from now.
Texans fired Culley which is kind of weird. He comes in to the job with nothing to work with since his predecessor traded that ALL away and his starting QB wrapped up in a rape beef but still managed to win 4 games. The fuck were the Texans expecting?

Barry Saunders was on GMFB this morning. He really seemed to like Dan Campbell. That's promising for the Lions. Maybe after Stupid Sexy Rodgers retires Detroit can actually do something.
30 consecutive years of HoF QB's in Green Bay tends to result in liver failure for fans of the rest of the division
Raiders Vs. Bengals = Tough call that could go either way, but I'm feeling the Raiders here. They have demonstrated a resilience this season that is pretty remarkable.
Bills Vs. Patriots = Never count Belichik out entirely, but I'm pulling for the Bills. They have made great strides the last couple of seasons and now is the time to finally get passed the Music City Miracle
Buccaneers Vs. Eagles = Tampa Bay all the way. I don't see Philly winning this. I've seen bigger upsets, but I would be shocked if Tampa lost this one.
49ers Vs. Dallas = I don't see Dallas going all the way as they are in that position of being great against weak ass teams, but then losing to above average ones. I don't see SF knocking them out though. Dallas takes this one.
Chiefs Vs. Steelers = Pittsburgh kind of limp dicked their way into the playoffs and after a sluggish start to the season, the Chiefs have found their fire again and got hot at the right time. I'm going KC on this one.
Rams Vs. Cardinals = I'm pulling for AZ as I kind of have a soft spot for them, but I think LA is taking this one.
It appears like they set him up to fail so they could wait out the fallout from the last couple years and get a more desirable candidate. The same thing the 49ers did with Tomsula.
The first game went about as I expected: close, but with a Cincy victory. Vegas should feel good about themselves after all the shit they went through this season.
I think the game coming up will be a Bills win. Isaiah Wynn is out for the Patriots at left tackle and I just don't see Mac Jones doing enough tonight to allow the Patriots to have a working balanced offensive attack; they're certainly going to need to pass more than 3 times this game. The Patriots should feel good though about this season. After a poor start they've done well and Jones looks like he's going to be a solid successor to Brady, but their dynasty days are over.
A late season surging Chiefs over the Packers for the Super Bowl title is my prediction.
It'll be interesting to see if Mac Jones and the Patriots can play an attacking game. They won in Buffalo last time by just running literally all but three plays.
Now they are down 20-0, so let's see if Mac Jones can win with his arm.
