And The NFL Football Firings Begin

Lovie Smith, Andy Reid, Romeo Crennel, Chan Gailey, Pat Shurmur and soon to be fired, Norv Turner all have been fired as NFL coaches today, perhaps a record number of head coaches fired in a day.  Then, throw in all the assistant coaches that were fired with the head coach and you probably have about 60 coaches out of a job today.  Several General Managers were also fired.
And there probably be more coaches fired as well.
The big question is if the replacements of these coaches will be any better than the fired coaches.
I also wonder if these coaches were fired today, New Years Eve so that their severance packages won't be as highly taxed as if they were fired say, tomorrow.
Update: The Arizona Cardinals have also fired Ken Whisenhunt, making the number of coahes fired to 7.
