The Facts:
Following up on a
previous item. ... Lovie Smith was one of seven NFL head coaches fired today. He’s also a candidate to replace four of the other six fired coaches.Smith has already been contacted by four teams about their head-coaching vacancies, ESPN reported on SportsCenter. The report did not say which of the six other teams that fired their coaches — the Chiefs, Chargers, Browns, Cardinals, Bills and Eagles — are interested in Smith. But if Smith is interested, he’ll be a very busy man over the next couple of weeks.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Although Smith was fired after his team collapsed over the second half of back-to-back seasons, PFT's Michael David Smith believes it’s easy to see why other teams would be interested: Smith won three division titles with the Bears, reached the Super Bowl and was the NFL’s coach of the year for the 2005 season. Whatever the case, Smith was also a well-regarded defensive assistant, first with the Buccaneers and then with the Rams, before becoming a head coach. So if Smith wants to work in 2013, he’ll find a job quickly.
