We’ve hit a milestone once again in the Coach Ineptitude Rankings (CIR). For only the second time this season Detroit Loins head coach Jim Caldwell is not on the list. We have a debut this week that knocked him off. The real shocker, at least to me, is that I’m still counting down 10 coaches and not a one of these sorry, worthless bastards has been fired.
10. Rex Ryan, Buffalo Bills
A month ago Rex Ryan had the Bills on a four-game winning streak and looked like he’d not only saved his job, but could be on the way to the postseason. A month later the Bills have lost three in a row and go into their bye with the Bengals on the other side.

9. Mike McCoy, San Diego Chargers
Look at you, Mike McCoy. Making it all the way up to No. 9 on a list you and Gus Bradley have ruled for the entire season. I’m proud of you. I really am. You may make it to January yet.
8. Bill O’Brien, Houston Texans
The Texans come into this week’s game against the Jaguars as a two-point dog, even though they have a winning record and, by their schedule alone, are primed for a playoff run. That’s how shitty a coach Bill O’Brien is. No sportsbook trusts him to win two games in a row in November, even off a bye.

7. Dirk Koetter, Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Koetter actually as the offense performing fine over the last few games and, honestly, the Buccaneers’ losses have all come against teams they should have lost to with the exception of the Rams, which is enough to keep Koetter on the list for the rest of the year.
6. Mike McCarthy, Green Bay Packers
McCarthy shoots back onto the list after dropping a home game against fellow CIR veteran Chuck Pagano’s Indianapolis Colts last week. Pagano escapes the list with the big win, but once again Green Bay’s offensive incompetence has the Packers at .500 and McCarthy at No. 6.

5. Hue Jackson, Cleveland Browns
I’ll be honest. I’ve only seen the Browns’ highlights this season before Thursday night. They had put up some nice offensive numbers and if you have Terrelle Pryor on your fantasy team, you’re probably doing pretty well. On TNF I got a full face full of how Jackson is coaching this team and it is a disaster. Any goodwill or reputation Jackson was able to put together as the offensive coordinator in Cincinnati is swirling down the toilet. It was a masterpiece of shitty coaching and earned him a Top Five debut on the Coach Ineptitude List.
4. Mike Mularkey, Tennessee Titans
A few weeks ago I wrote that there was no way Mularkey would win three games in a row and, of course, he didn’t. With a 43-35 loss to the Chargers last Sunday, Mike looks like he’s on the verge of losing six in a row, which is a much more attainable goal.

3. Chip Kelly, San Francisco 49ers
There’s no change at all in our Top Three in the CIR for good reason. Kelly continues to prove that he can not evaluate personnel and has no ability to coach an NFL team. Other than that, he’s doing great.
2. Jeff Fisher, Los Angeles Rams
As Fisher’s time as an NFL coach crawls to a close, it’s important to take into account what he’s done, single-handedly served as a perfect example of every single thing a coach shouldn’t do on gameday or as preparation for the game. He’s the coaching version of Goofus.

1. Gus Bradley, Jacksonville Jaguars
Gus Bradley continues to dominate the shit coach rankings as only he, the worst head coach of the modern NFL era, can. The Jaguars have lost three straight, but somehow find themselves a two-point favorite over the Texans this week. Proving the voting results that legalized marijuana last Tuesday are already being felt at your favorite sportsbooks.
Yesterday was the four-year anniversary of Gus Bradley's first win as a head coach in the #NFL. He's got 13 more since then… #Jaguars
