Firing an NFL head coach after just one season can be a risky decision, often leading to instability within the team. The New England Patriots, under Jerod Mayo, are struggling with a 3-11 record, raising questions about his future. Historically, 12 coaches have been dismissed after one season since 2011, with mixed results for their franchises.
Teams like the Las Vegas Raiders and Jacksonville Jaguars have faced challenges post-firing, while the San Francisco 49ers found success after their coaching changes. The Houston Texans, however, have thrived under new leadership after consecutive firings.
Other teams, such as the Arizona Cardinals and Denver Broncos, illustrate the varied outcomes of such decisions, with the Panthers currently facing their own turmoil after parting ways with Frank Reich.
