Here’s every team since 2008 that has fired their coach mid-season and I’ll let you all be the judge on how many you think made a difference

2008: Rams, Raiders, 49ers
-
2009: Bills
-
2010: Cowboys, Vikings, Broncos, 49ers
-
2011: Jaguars, Chiefs (bear in mind that in 2012 they promoted Crennel to full-time HC), Dolphins
-
2012: none
-
2013: Texans

2023: so far just Raiders
Included the last few seasons mostly just for completion (obviously we don’t know the long-term effects of all of them yet) but also to highlight how few mid-season firings actually happen. There hasn’t been more than 3 since 2010
One of my favorite Bears wins of all time
