2011 NFL Coaching Turnover

While it's been a slow off-season in terms of player movement, there has been plenty of movement on NFL coaching staffs. After only 3 Head Coaching changes before last season, plenty of coaches found themselves on the hot seat in 2010. This ultimately resulted in 8 Head Coaching changes heading into 2011. In addition, we have some new faces at the all-important Offensive Coordinator position.

When all was said & done the Panthers, Browns, Broncos, Raiders, 49ers & Titans all chose to go in new directions at Head Coach while the Cowboys & Vikings removed the interim tags from their guys.

To help get you back up to speed, here's a quick review by team. These changes are vitally important to fantasy football owners and lay a solid foundation in prepping for the 2011 Fantasy Football season.
