ARE THREE AFC NORTH COACHES ON THE HOT SEAT?

It’s no secret that Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski is on the hot seat.

But he may not be the only head coach in the AFC North whose job security is iffy at best. There could be two others as well.

Bengals head coach Zac Taylor also might be on shaky ground. This team is fading fast after the injury to quarterback Joe Burrow, and another Joe — Flacco — was acquired in a trade with the Browns on Sunday to try to right the ship. But it may be too tall of a task, for it appears that other than Burrow and wide receivers Jamar Chase and Tee Higgins, the team is almost avoid of any quality players.

Burrow might not be in Taylor’s corner, if you can believe the rumblings coming out of Cincinnati. And Burrow gets what he wants. The Bengals can’t afford to tick off Burrow. So if he wants Taylor gone, then he will be gone..

And in Baltimore, where the Ravens are crashing and burning without their quarterback, Lamar Jackson, who is injured, there are whispers that the team and head coach John Harbaugh, after numerous failed attempts to get to the Super Bowl, could mutually agree to part ways so as to give both sides a fresh start.

And Mike Tomlin of the Pittsburgh Steelers? He’s not going anywhere anytime soon, unless he chooses to do so. The Steelers will win the division with ease and could make a real run at the Super Bowl on the strength of Aaron Rodgers’ ability and experience. What happens at the end of this season, after which Rodgers will supposedly retire, remains to be seen, but right now, the Steelers are all in on doing some big things.
