Black Monday NFL Coaching Changes

It’s Black Monday in the NFL.

With the regular season coming to an end last night, non-playoff teams (including the Steelers) have moved on to their post-season (not postseason) plans. This usually involves a lot of coaches getting fired and today is no exception.

Here’s what we have so far.

Arizona Cardinals head coach Steve Wilks is out after just one year.
