The Seat Isn't Hot

Writers try to invent controversy. Someone came up with a list of five coaches who are on the "hot seat" for 2013. They might be right, but we haven't even started training camp. Teams will evolve over time. Camp tells a lot about the team for the season, but it's not inclusive.

As a fan of the Pats, we have become spoiled by never having a coaching issue since 1993. Bill Parcells left after the 1996 under bad circumstances, but nobody has ever been on the "hot seat" in the time of the Kraft family ownership. That means a lot to the stability of the franchise.
