Is there any reason why the NFL allows teams to make big movements and signings while the playoffs are still going? Wouldn't some teams still playing possibly be a little ticked that they don't get a fair shot at all the pickings and sort of get punished for winning??
Well if you made it to the conference championship game chances are you're probably not looking for a new coach.

NFL is a big time systems based game and the coach in the NFL has huge input in personell descisions. Head coaches in football are more like managers because a lot of them delgage the specifics of the games to their assistants and as a result the coach needs to know the systems, know his assistants so he can help get the right personnel in place. So it's not really a game where you can go too long without a head coach in place. Because without a head coach a team can't really be doing much of anything.
