Mid-Season Head Coaching Changes In The NFL

With the recent resignation of Bobby Petrino as head coach of the Atlanta Falcons (and his replacement by longtime assistant Emmitt Thomas), let’s take a look at teams that replace coaches in mid-season.

As opposed to baseball, basketball, and hockey. it is somewhat unusual for an NFL team to change coaches during the season. This is mainly due to their only being 16 regular season games in the NFL where other sports have many more than that. there are 32 teams in the NFL and since the 1970 AFL-NFL merger there has been a change of coaches mid season 59 times – that’s less than two in-season coaching changes for each team if you average it out.

So, which team has changed coaches during the season the most?

The list of teams that has changed coaches mid-season once or twice since 1970 is decent sized, but from there we move into the upper echelon of coaching instability.

NFL Teams That have Changed Head Coaches in Mid-Season Three Times Since 1970:

Arizona/St. Louis Cardinals

NFL Teams That have Changed Head Coaches in Mid-Season four Times Since 1970:

Tennessee Titans (done while still the Houston Oilers)

But, the champions of this category are.

NFL Teams That have Changed Head Coaches in Mid-Season five Times Since 1970:

Atlanta Falcons (just joined the club)

There you have it, where does your team rank in coaching stability?

A couple of interesting side notes that make great trivia:

There are eight Teams That Hadn’t Changed Coaches Mid-Season at All Since 1970:

Of these eight teams, four have a distinct advantage as they came into the league after 1995:

Carolina Panthers, Jacksonville Jaguars, Baltimore Ravens, and the Houston Texans.

But, the four longtime NFL teams that qualify:

And a nice bit of trivia on the bad side of this issue:

There are only two NFL teams since 1970 that have changed head coaches mid-season in two consecutive years:

New York Jets (1975 & 1976)

Buffalo Bills (1985 & 1986)

8-8-08 – August 8, 2008 The Next Big Wedding Date?

Before July 7, 2007 there seemed to be mass hysteria about getting married on that date. but most couples unable to find a venue to get married at are now opting for the new lucky day August 8, 2008. so start planning now and don’t miss out on the rush that is most likely to happen once again.

August 8, 2008 will fall on a Friday. so most likely will not be quite as popular as July 7, 2007 but it will surely be a day that will go down in history. since eight to the Chinese culture is a very lucky number watch out for the huge numbers of Chinese getting married on this day.

Most people in the wedding industry will surely capitalize off this day. Due to the high demand, that August 8, 2008 will bring. but it will not be just the Chinese that will be getting married on this day. Couples nowadays, like dates that are very memorable or have a special meaning to them. although Friday weddings are less popular. sometimes that is not a bad thing. if you can find vendors not trying to capitalize off this day. you might be able to get one of those Friday deals.

Since August 8, 2008 falls on Friday, and if you find vendors that are not out to get your money then you will probably save money due to the lack of high demand for Friday weddings.
