“NFL-Let the Interview Begin”

Almost one-quarter of the NFL head coaches have been fired, just days into the NFL off season.

And now the search begins to find the right leader.

Here comes the parade of the ‘hot’ coordinators on some other NFL team.
Or possibly going to get a veteran head coach-who washed out some place else.
Sometimes guys come out of retirement and bounce back in the NFL.
Unlikely would be a college coach, not after the Urban Meyer disaster with the Jaguars.

Here’s a quick look at teams and candidates, and what might happen, courtesy of Pro Football Talk.com
