With the final week of the 2024-25 NFL season upon us, several franchises are now considering the fate of their current head coach. This scenario has prompted a series of NFL prop bets for HC’s that are potentially on the chopping block.
How Many NFL Head Coaches will be fired between now and the Super Bowl?
- Over 3.5 -135
- Under 3.5 -105
If the above NFL odds are accurate, at least four head coaches will be relieved of duty prior to February 9th, the date of Super Bowl LIX.
Will Doug Pederson be the Jacksonville Jaguars Head Coach Week 1 of the 2025 NFL Season?
- Yes +300
- No -500
Coach Pederson has gone 22-28 with one playoff appearance during his three-year tenure with the Jaguars. Those results are normally fireworthy, but the Khan family may show loyalty to Pederson following the debacle that was Urban Meyer.
Will Antonio Pierce be the Las Vegas Raiders Head Coach for Week 1 of the 2025 NFL Season?
- Yes +250
- No -400
Pierce became the interim head coach of the Raiders last season after Josh McDaniels was terminated and compiled a 5-4 record to finish the year. Most franchises negate the opportunity to hire the interim coach as a full-time solution, but Vegas gave Pierce a shot in 2024-25.
Unfortunately, this experiment has failed and teams will use Pierce as the example as why not to elevate the interim coach to full time status.
Will Brian Daboll be the New York Giants Head Coach for Week 1 of the 2025 NFL Season?
- Yes +125
- No -165
After three seasons with the Giants, Brian Daboll has compiled a record of 18-31-1. His fate was largely tied to quarterback Daniel Jones, who he benched, then cut this season.
The odds imply he’ll keep his job, despite how fireable he appears at the moment. Perhaps the front office is willing to give him one more chance with a rookie QB. There is also the potential for Daboll to waste the first year their rookie quarterback’s career.
Will Jerod Mayo be the New England Patriots Head Coach for Week 1 of the 2025 NFL Season?
- Yes -400
- No +250
Mayo has only had this gig for one season, so he is likely safe, but we’re betting the New England Patriots will regret keeping him onboard for another campaign.
Will Mike McCarthy be the Dallas Cowboys Head Coach for Week 1 of the 2025 NFL Season?
- Yes -155
- No +115
Critics have been projecting McCarthy’s termination since the moment he was hired, but he defied their expectations and went 12-5 for three seasons in a row.
This year, the Dallas Cowboys have only mustered 7 wins, but with Dak Prescott and CeeDee Lamb on IR, McCarthy deserves another shot.
Will Shane Steichen be the Indianapolis Colts Head Coach for Week 1 of the 2025 NFL Season?
- Yes -250
- No +170
After two mediocre years with the Colts, Shane Steichen is on the hot seat, but prop bets suggest there is a strong likelihood he returns for another go in Indianapolis.
Will Zac Taylor be the Cincinnati Bengals Head Coach for Week 1 of the 2025 NFL Season?
- Yes -280
- No +185
The Cincinnati Bengals have underachieved this season, even though their key players are healthy. The outlook is good for Taylor to return to Cincinnati in 2024-25, but he is unlikely to survive another mediocre effort, regardless of his roster’s injury status.
