Idk why people think firing our HC in the middle of the season would be any different or better than firing them in the offseason. The only reason is the fans get quicker gratification. Otherwise you’re stuck with an interim who is typically even worse than the original HC. We’re gonna be bad this season no matter what why bother firing people in the middle of it
Because there is a glimmer of hope that the interim HC will put players in the position to succeed and maybe see some improvement in the team. Our situation is probably impossible since our HC is also our DC.
I think this is exactly the reason why they are still here. It’s an unusual situation that would be complicated to fill. We also haven’t heard any news about a new DC all season. This might be another sign Poles is just letting this year play out so he can start fresh
For me it’s a few reasons. Personally, the season is lost but at least I don’t have to spend the next several months wondering if they’re planning on keeping this clown car on the road next season. For the team, locker room is obviously lost with this group and they still need to extend Jaylon Johnson and Sweat. Firing this group means you can openly discuss the plan for moving forward during that negotiation. Finally, some of the best head coach candidates are going to end up being hired during the playoffs. You rip the bandaid now, have several months to conduct a search, and you can get one of the better candidates before they’re off the market. Otherwise you’re stuck with the next Eberflus once all the good candidates are picked over. They hired Nagy on January 10th, they hired Eberflus on January 27th. That couple weeks can make a big difference. I know Nagy didn’t work out but he was actually THE guy that off-season.

hope isn’t a strategy

So they’re not trading away 2nd round picks hours before the trade deadline.
