Players get coaches fired in the NFL all the time.
That team started out what 5-0 and will now be lucky to be .500.
I've read a lot about his coaching there. It seems he backed off some of his fire and forcing guys to be accountable. He's mellow at times. There was also speculation that he's good at getting a bunch of underdogs to perform on defense, but if you give him talent it underperforms.
I do like Zimmer as a coach...but our defense melted down in playoff games with him here. THAT was a big reason for some of our playoff losses just as much as Dalton turning the ball over was.
