Which leads to empty seats.

How his firing would go over in NFL circles or in the court public opinion is a much smaller concern when compared with what NFL teams actually care about: profitability. The almighty dollar trumps all in the NFL. They need a team that will win.

That's the same reason though that they'll likely hang onto Rivera through year four and then make a move. They're not going to fire him with two years left on the contract. Costs too much.

After year 4 if he hasn't shown progress, and my money says he won't, he'll be gone. As he should. Because you're in this business to win and make money. Nothing else matters.

Ill plus 1 this. But I respect both opinions and i agree with Mooby. Coff should post more.
