NFL Week 15 Hot Seat Rankings: Could Playoff-Eliminating Loss End Cam Newton As Starter?

Former Las Vegas Raiders defensive coordinator Paul Guenther has entered the group previously led by Bill O’Brien, Dan Quinn and Gregg Williams.

Guenther was the latest NFL coach to be fired Monday after his Raiders defense allowed 44 points to the Indianapolis Colts in Week 14 defeat. The verdict dropped Las Vegas out of the current playoff picture, and was not exactly an outlier this season. The Raiders have allowed more points than 29 NFL teams (only Jets, Cowboys are worse) and they rank 30th in yards-per-rush allowed, as well. It was time.

Guenther, though, could be joined by others who find Week 15 ends their time, as well.
