The coaching carousel keeps spinning—and somehow it keeps getting weirder.

In Episode 92, the Comanagers open with one of the most surprising headlines of the offseason: Bill Belichick failing to make the Hall of Fame on the first ballot. Is it Spygate? Deflategate? North Carolina? The Jordan Hudson saga? Or just the league being petty? The guys unpack what this actually says about Belichick’s legacy—and whether the voters got it right.

They also take a moment to appreciate how absurd it is that Shedeur Sanders made the Pro Bowl, because if you told us that a year ago, we’d assume you were lying.

From there, it’s a full coaching hires update, breaking down the latest moves across the league:

• Jesse Minter landing in Baltimore
• Buffalo’s controversial internal promotion of Joe Brady
• Mike McCarthy heading home to Pittsburgh
• Cleveland’s bizarre, Harvard-style interview process ending with Todd Monken—and the fallout with Jim Schwartz

Finally, John and Justin rank the best head coaching hires so far, debating which teams nailed it, which teams played it safe, and which hires feel like ticking time bombs. If you’re trying to make sense of this offseason’s coaching chaos, this episode connects all the dots.

In this episode, the Comanagers break down the final head coaching jobs to be filled and debate what each franchise actually needs right now: a culture builder, an offensive mind, or a defensive stabilizer. From Pittsburgh and Baltimore to Buffalo, Cleveland, Vegas, and Arizona, John and Justin argue which coaching archetype gives each team the best chance to win—and which paths could blow up fast.

The guys also react to a wave of offensive coordinator changes around the league, including Detroit moving on from John Morton, Kansas City bringing back Eric Bieniemy, Washington promoting David Blough, and several high-profile firings in Philly, Tampa Bay, and Los Angeles. Some hires feel inspired. Others feel… familiar.

Finally, they run through the best available coaching candidates, weighing upside vs. risk for names like Mike McDaniel, Sean McDermott, Brian Flores, Klint Kubiak, Jesse Minter, and, yes, Arthur Smith (boooo). If you’re trying to figure out where the league is heading philosophically, this episode connects the dots.

The Comanagers continue their deep dive into the NFL’s chaotic coaching hiring cycle by answering one deceptively simple question: which head coaching jobs are actually good?

John and Justin rank every open head coach position from this cycle, breaking down roster talent, quarterback outlooks, cap flexibility, ownership patience, and realistic expectations. Buffalo sits at the top for both hosts, but after that, the lists diverge quickly. Is New York quietly set up for success? Is Miami trying to build a house using two completely different LEGO sets? And is Pittsburgh secretly the hardest job in football now?

After ranking the jobs, the guys react to the new hires already on the board, including Kevin Stefanski landing in Atlanta, Jeff Hafley inheriting a messy Miami situation, John Harbaugh’s massive deal with the Giants, and Robert Saleh taking on a Titans rebuild that may hinge entirely on Cam Ward.

If you’re wondering which teams are primed for a turnaround—and which ones are walking into a buzzsaw—this episode breaks it all down.
