I assume you meant Grigson?

I am pleased with the Colts dysfunction, anything which cracks the door open a bit wider for the Steelers for one last longshot run is great. Already a steep hill to climb with the Pats, Bengals, and one/some/all of the AFCW contenders looking potent.

Plus Jacksonville - Division Leader is a great thing to see again.

Eh, the Jaguars are tied with the Titans (who?!?) and are going to lose to the Patriots next week.

Alright you nerds I have a new ranking to argue over this week.

Moved Jason Garrett to "zero danger" since nobody will blame him if/when the Cowboys sink with no Romo or Dez. McCarthy is in 100% safety after a convincing win over Seattle. Andy Reid and Chip Kelly ... gently caress, we'll get to them.

ZERO DANGER

Bill Belichick, New England Patriots
John Harbaugh, Baltimore Ravens
Mike Tomlin, Pittsburgh Steelers
Mike McCoy, San Diego Chargers
Jason Garrett, Dallas Cowboys
Mike McCarthy, Green Bay Packers
Mike Zimmer, Minnesota Vikings
Pete Carroll, Seattle Seahawks
Bruce Arians, Arizona Cardinals

FIRST-YEAR GRACE PERIOD

Rex Ryan, Buffalo Bills
Todd Bowles, New York Jets
Gary Kubiak, Denver Broncos
Jack Del Rio, Oakland Raiders
John Fox, Chicago Bears
Dan Quinn, Atlanta Falcons
Jim Tomsula, San Francisco 49ers

MILD

Marvin Lewis, Cincinnati Bengals: The 2-0 start is cool and good. Still want to see that playoff win before I put him in "zero danger."

Bill O'Brien, Houston Texans: Turns out that taking on Belichick's sloppy seconds at QB isn't a sound strategy. Who knew? The Texans' offense is DOA until Arian Foster comes back.

Gus Bradley, Jacksonville Jaguars: Gutted out a win over Miami with Blake Bortles looking more than competent. There's hope for this team yet, so I'll bump Bradley down to the "mild" section for now.

Andy Reid, Kansas City Chiefs: Chiefs posters convinced me that Reid was safe, and then he goes on to have the most Peak Andy Reid game ever. He will never not get in his own way, so I'm sticking him here and y'all will have to deal.

Jim Caldwell, Detroit Lions: The Lions have had an uninspiring start to the season, but I've seen nothing to indicate that Caldwell is in real danger. OC Joe Lombardi could be the sacrificial lamb, though.

Sean Payton, New Orleans Saints: Payton is a tough one for me to grade. There's no doubt that the Saints are in real trouble right now, and if Brees' shoulder injury is significant their 2015 season could go up in smoke. The question for me is, how much rope does Payton have for dragging the Saints to relevance, and how much rope will he have left when their contention window closes? I'll be monitoring this one closely.

MODERATE

Ken Whisenhunt, Tennessee Titans: If this ends up being a repeat of last season (Titans have big Week 1 win, poo poo the bed the rest of the way) then someone else will be mentoring Mariota soon.

Jay Gruden, Washington: Bumped him down from HOTTTT for now. While his position is as tenuous as Kirk Cousins' competence, Washington pulled off an impressive win and the NFC East looks wide open this year. We'll see how this plays out.

Tom Coughlin, New York Giants: Another week, another baffling game management gaffe that costs them the win. Blowing two double-digit leads in two straight games does absolutely nothing to help Coughlin's cause.

Ron Rivera, Carolina Panthers: He's got nothing to work with at WR or OL, but Rivera has made chicken salad out of chicken poo poo in the past. A win over a reeling Texans team doesn't move the needle either way.

Lovie Smith, Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Winston looked a lot better in Week 2, but I think that win said a lot more about the Saints than the Bucs. We'll learn more about this team (and its coach) in the next month or so.

Jeff Fisher, St. Louis Rams: Same ol' sorry-rear end Rams. I tried to warn you guys when you kept saying "this time they're for real!"

HOTTTT

Joe Philbin, Miami Dolphins: Ehud and Crazy deserve better. If the Fins don't make the playoffs he'll be gone.

Chuck Pagano, Indianapolis Colts: Pagano's fate may have been decided by front-office shenanigans, but if he delivered on the field all that chatter would shut up quick. Instead, it's just gotten louder and with no contract next year, Pagano is as good as gone. Time to start fantasizing about his replacement before Irsay lets you down again, Colts posters.

Chip Kelly, Philadelphia Eagles: :psyduck: :psyduck: :psyduck: It's me, I was the fool for hopping on Chip's Wild Ride.

Mike Pettine, Cleveland Browns: It's the Jimmy Haslam Browns. Every coach is on the hot seat until proven otherwise.

Yeah, first-year coaches are always safe unless there's an absolute collapse. Jim Tomsula could get there yet, but I'm playing it safe for now.

Marvin Lewis took over a crap team that hadn't had a winning season in over a decade, has been pretty consistently successful as a coach, is long tenured and doesn't really cost very much. The Cincy fanbase may be out for blood, but that's a move that doesn't make a whole lot of sense for an owner who's never really shown that he's interested in blowing everything up and trying to win now.

Andy Reid's danger is nearly non-existent.

It would take a disaster season that would make even Romeo Crennel say god drat and even than he would still probably get a mulligan.

Clark Hunt spent a lot to get rid of Todd Haley, Scott Pioli and Romeo Crennel. He's not going to pay even more money for dudes to ride the couch again this soon.

I have to say I'm really impressed with how the defense is playing. Julio Jones excluded they have locked down the other team's passing game. Give a lot of credit to Bill Davis. If he keeps this up he could be a coaching candidate himself.

I feel the need to concur, having watched more than 1 eagles game this season. That defense is p loving good, and it is absolutely keeping you in games.

God willing. Every time a talking head says "He's the grandson of Vince Lombardi!" I just picture some random accountant in Ohio who is also Lombardi's grandson, but doesn't have the name because it's on his mom's side, and that Lombardi son is the one who got all of Vince's football genius but was never given a chance because his last name is Smith or something boring.

Meanwhile Joe gets a seven-figure salary off of his last name alone. Good living if you can get it, I suppose.

Lombardi was a "defensive assistant" with Atlanta before joining the Saints as an "offensive assistant". He's a jack of all trades!
