Some, like Dick Jauron of the Chicago Bears, Dave McGinnis of the Arizona Cardinals and Gregg Williams of the Buffalo Bills, were taking the fall for teams with a recent history of woes. But several started the season with good reason for optimism and expected to be working on play-off game plans, not their resumes, this month. Here's a look at some of the most...
