Latest next NFL coach fired odds movement

  • Dan Quinn (31%): Quinn spiked to 63% after a Week 5 time-management fiasco, but has since leveled off. However, he's still the 31% market choice.
  • Todd Bowles (30%): Bowles crept up from 23% after Tampa fell to 1-5. 
  • Nick Sirianni (16%): Sirianni's hot seat is heating up thanks to some questionable strategy calls, plus mounting injuries, including Jalen Hurts' alarming blood clot diagnosis that has sidelined him for the season.

Next NFL coach fired prediction: Todd Bowles

Things look hopeless in Tampa Bay. The Buccaneers cleaned house in the offseason, firing five assistant coaches, including OC Josh Grizzard. There's nowhere for Bowles to hide, and the Baker Mayfield thumb injury is not helping.

Pick made on 10-19.
