[Senator Clay Davis]

Dungy was in Tampa six years before he got canned, Stefanski is in year two. Situations aren't even close to the same. What top coach is going to come into a situation with a wildly uncertain QB situation, where a coach who is easily the franchise's most successful coach....ever (New Browns only) got canned in a year where his QB, who this time last year was a lock to get a long term extension, went out and delivered well below replacement level performance? It might have been fine to think Baker was maybe overrated this time last year, but no one could have expected him to be one of the worst QBs in the league this year, injured or not.

And if you can't get a clear upgrade at coach, why make the change? Makes way more sense to fire him after next year if they disappoint, because then Baker is done and the new coach can choose his QB going forward. Firing him now is what bad teams do (i.e. the new Browns most of their existence).
