Black Monday for NFL Coaches.
FEYERICK: Today is Black Monday for NFL coaches, where that season could end with a trip to the unemployment line. The Cleveland Browns didn't wait until today; they fired their coach yesterday. So did the San Francisco 49ers. Their coach was on the job for just a year. CNN's Coy Wire joins us now. Coy, not a good day and all eyes now on the New York Giants.</s>COY WIRE, CNN SPORTS ANCHOR: Absolutely, Deborah. The cell phones of those coaches, they're hoping they do not ring. Giants ownership is scheduled to meet this morning to discuss the status of Tom Coughlin. Coughlin wouldn't even answer any questions about his future after the Giants' loss yesterday to the Eagles, but he did have a bunch of his extended family, including 11 grandchildren, attend the game. So some speculated that this was a sign showing that he wanted his loved ones there because he knew it was it was his last game as head man of the giants. He dismissed those speculations immediately though, saying this was just a family gathering. Now, Coughlin is 69 yeas old. The Giants went only 6-10 this year and haven't been to the playoffs since 2011, when they won their second of two Super Bowls under Coughlin. There have been increasing whispers in the NFL circle that Coughlin may actually not retire but, instead, stay and force the Giants to either fire him or keep him. Either way, we're talking about a hall of fame coaching career. Having played against his teams, you always respected a Coughlin-coached team. Now the Colt's coach, Pagano, is the other big name that may be looking for employment soon. Reports out of Indy have been that if the Colts didn't make the playoffs, he was going to be gone. Well, Indy just missed out on the playoffs. Their star quarterback Andrew Luck has been injured most of the season. The team had high hopes, some experts even saying that they were Super Bowl contenders before the season started. So reports are that the Colts are going to swing for the fences on their next coach if Pagano is indeed let go. Names like Alabama's Nick Saban and the Saints' Sean Payton are being thrown out. Having a chance to coach an Andrew Luck in his prime is going to be an enticing, enticing situation for an coaching candidate out there, Deborah.</s>FEYERICK: All right, high stakes.
