This episode of Purple Insider is presented by Fanduel.

So I want to talk about something else a little curious to me.

Let me give you that Fandual question of the day again.

The Fandual question of the day was, excuse me, that the Ravens are three and a half point favorites against Pittsburgh on Sunday.

Loser of the game may have serious consequences.

Do you think that Flores is a candidate for the Ravens or Steelers job should someone lose their gig for losing that job?

I tend to think the answer would be yes, that he would be for the Steelers.

For the Ravens, I'm not as convinced, but if the Ravens lose and Lamar plays, it seems like a

real possibility that they could move on from Lamar Jackson. I just don't think that that makes

any sense at all, but the tension there is really interesting and pretty bizarre.

Now, let me get to something that I saw today. It was kind of buried in a pro football talk

article about how many open head coaching positions there would be and making the case for

different ones. But there was something shoehorned in there. I don't think any of us believe that Kevin O'Connell should be fired or there should be a hot seat discussion for him. It's really, there's a lot of pressure for next year. I think we all agree on that. When you take your big swing and you miss like this, even if you finish with a nine and eight record, we know that you were once

four and eight. We know how the season actually went. You started winning after the pressure was

completely off and you played the worst teams and like whatever, right? I mean, all the criticisms

that we've made throughout the year, they still stand. Plus, the other guy that you should have

had as your quarterback is playing

for the number one seed again this year. All of that. Like, that doesn't go away if you get to

nine and eight, okay? But I've never thought that firing the head coach was the solution here

or a good idea. I think when you reach a certain level of head coaching, I had this discussion, well,

actually, you'll hear it later with Grant Bills. We recorded a little earlier today about Matt LaFleur.

Green Bay Packers want him fired fans, a lot of them. And I think you get to a certain level with
