NFL Coaches On The Hot Seat

17 Feb 2026

Transcription

Chapter 1: What coaches are on the hot seat heading into the 2026 NFL season?

0.031 - 23.015 Boomer

One of the sites I'll look at in the morning is the Big Lead, and they put out the coaches that they think heading into the season now. After all of the – I spilled water everywhere. After all of the firings this past year, the top five water is everywhere. I mean, that's a full glass of water that went absolutely everywhere. All into my bag.

0

23.035 - 23.536 Unknown

Oh, no.

0

23.676 - 31.724 Boomer

Oh, my God. What a disaster. Anyway, the top five coaches heading into this season that are on the hot seat. NFL-wise.

0

Chapter 2: What unexpected spillage incident occurs during the episode?

32.204 - 34.827 Boomer

How many do you think you could get? Like, right off the bat.

0
0

35.408 - 37.63 Boomer

Think you could get them all? Boy, yeah.

0

37.65 - 44.117 Gio

Could I get them all? No, I couldn't get them all. But Zach Taylor and Aaron Glenn are on that list. I would certainly think right to start. No?

0

44.157 - 45.158 Boomer

Yes, they are.

45.198 - 53.346 Gio

Those two would be... I would have to think through the divisions. That would be it for the... Oh, Jesus, everything going off here. Alarm's going off.

Chapter 3: Who are the top five NFL coaches mentioned as being under pressure?

53.546 - 56.11 Gio

Water's spilling. Complete nightmare.

0

56.17 - 59.896 Boomer

Look at the bag. There's just water in the bag. All right, thanks, Al.

0

60.497 - 64.043 Gio

If I look at the teams, that's the easiest way for me to do this.

0

64.323 - 66.026 Boomer

So you said Zach Taylor and Aaron Glenn?

0

66.066 - 67.889 Gio

Yeah, those come to mind immediately.

67.909 - 69.952 Boomer

So Zach Taylor's five, Aaron Glenn is one.

70.333 - 71.074 Gio

Oh, Jesus.

73.177 - 73.558

Zach Taylor's five.

76.981 - 78.643 Gio

It's a disaster in here right now.

Chapter 4: What criteria are used to determine if a coach is on the hot seat?

103.959 - 106.262 Gio

Okay. Kevin O'Connell.

0

106.428 - 107.269 Boomer

He's number seven.

0

108.27 - 109.151 Gio

Not in the top five.

0

109.171 - 110.052 Boomer

Which is just insane.

0

110.453 - 111.053 Gio

Interesting.

112.495 - 115.699 Boomer

That he would be the guy. They had a winning season last year.

115.959 - 116.6 Gio

No, I get that.

116.62 - 125.149 Boomer

He's got two 14-win seasons on his resume and a winning season last year in a terrible year. Oh, my God.

125.169 - 135.657 Gio

Look at this. The only one, I think, other than would Mike LaFleur be on that list? He just got an extension. Well, I only say it because it seemed like he was on the hot seat this year, though they did give him an extension.

Chapter 5: How do injuries impact a coach's job security in the NFL?

157.627 - 164.122 Boomer

They have Dave Canales. You're kidding. They've got Dave Canales, number four, and Todd Bowles, number three.

0

164.282 - 177.755 Gio

The Bowles one I understand because while they haven't been awful, they haven't been good. And they've got too much talent for them to go eight and nine or whatever it was this year. Canales just kind of had a home playoff game. Yeah, I guess they think.

0

177.795 - 179.317 Boomer

Let's see what they say about it.

0

179.357 - 193.035 Gio

And I know 8-9, right? They were 8-9. They weren't a great football team. I'm not saying they weren't, but they had some signature wins this year for a team year two for him, I think. Yep. And it feels like they're heading in the right direction. Him on the hot seat is weird to me.

0

193.055 - 208.731 Boomer

Yeah, I don't agree with it. That's interesting. But I think part of it is the owner is crazy. That could be. Did I miss anybody else? No. Okay. Well, I mean, you can go all the way to top ten. So, LaFleur was nine and Schottenheimer was ten. Then Quinn, eight.

Chapter 6: What insights are shared about Todd Bowles and his coaching situation?

208.791 - 220.531 Boomer

O'Connell, seven. Steichen, six. And then we did the top five. Shane Steichen is sixth. He lost his quarterback midway through the season. Hey, got to remember, how about all these openings this past year?

0

220.551 - 235.913 Gio

What I don't understand is, I get the whole no excuses thing. I feel like that's more of a tagline more than anything. And yes, from time to time, a team loses players and they still figure out a way to win games. And it makes all the other people look like losers. Fine.

0

236.213 - 246.591 Gio

But if injuries are not a big deal and it's supposed to be no excuses, then why do you ever hand out these big contracts to players? Then just go win with whoever you're given. It doesn't make sense.

0

246.651 - 257.739 Boomer

No, I agree with that. So, by the way, I always talk about this bag that I carry around that has nothing in it. So the only thing that I actually have in it are my headphones and then my own mic screen.

0

257.759 - 258.08 Eddie

Okay, yeah.

258.62 - 266.49 Boomer

So now that I've poured water, like an entire cup of water into it, I figured let's have a little fun and pull out the stuff that's in here that I don't use.

266.71 - 267.951 Gio

Oh, so you did have other stuff in it.

267.971 - 276.393 Boomer

Yeah, but I mean just stuff I've thrown in there. Okay. How about the AJ and Big Justice... Signed card.

276.593 - 277.133 Gio

Look at that.

Chapter 7: What humorous items are revealed from Gio's bag during the discussion?

277.274 - 287.422 Boomer

All right. All right. How about two Justin Jefferson cards that were given to me? How about... Let's see. Two more Justin Jefferson cards.

0

287.442 - 288.684 Gio

Signed cards or just cards?

0

288.904 - 297.491 Boomer

No, they're just cards. Okay. Two more Justin Jefferson cards. A Chick-fil-A gift card. Oh, I like that. All right. A flag and anthem shirt tag.

0

298.332 - 299.133 Gio

A shirt tag.

0

299.153 - 309.348 Boomer

Somehow just threw that in there. Okay. Yep. A Caitlin Clark... Panini something or other. It's wet.

309.368 - 312.611 Gio

Card. Yeah, but it's not because you have it protected in its casing.

313.092 - 317.196 Boomer

I got some million Justin Jefferson cards there. Someone must have given me. All right, here we go.

Chapter 8: What final thoughts are shared about the importance of coach performance?

317.956 - 320.098 Gio

You've got this in as imperfect shape as it can be.

0

320.599 - 335.813 Boomer

This is good. Army Navy coin. That's very neat. I could just put all this crap up on eBay right now. You probably could. I mean, think about all this. Some makeup stuff with a couple pens. And, oh, look at that. It's a nose hair trimmer.

0

338.273 - 340.476 Gio

Why in the world are you carrying a nose hair trimmer?

0

341.578 - 342.88 Boomer

Oh, look at that. It still kind of works.

0

343.52 - 346.224 Gio

The battery still works, yes. Yeah. Oh, it's funny.

348.307 - 349.849 Boomer

Oh, no. I got a part of my mustache.

353.014 - 353.094 Gio

Ugh.

353.114 - 359.043 Boomer

There we go. That still works. Why would you have a nose hair trimmer? I think it's pretty obvious.

359.063 - 359.964 Gio

Well, you do that at home.
