The Tennessee Titans sent Brian Callahan packing on Monday after a 1-5 start to the season. His firing was proof of just how quickly a franchise's patience can run out.
That said, let's look at some other candidates who run the risk of being fired this season:

5) Kellen Moore (NO)
Kellen Moore landed the New Orleans Saints head coaching gig thanks to his accomplished run with the Philadelphia Eagles, where he put together one of the most feared offenses in the NFL that won Super Bowl LIX.
However, he's struggled to get the Saints up to that standard, sitting at 1-5 entering Week 7. If he doesn't quickly show signs that he is the one who can turn the franchise around, he could be out of town by season's end.
4) Kevin Stefanski (CLE)
Kevin Stefanski has struggled as the Cleveland Browns' head coach for the last five years, with little success. Many have wondered why he's kept his job this long.
The Browns are 1-5 this season and look set for another year without playoff football. The quarterback situation is also a big problem for Stefanski, who is attempting to redeem himself with two rookies in Dillon Gabriel and Shedeur Sanders at the top of the depth chart.
3) Mike McDaniel (MIA)
Mike McDaniel built the Miami Dolphins' offense into an exciting spectacle at the start of his run with the team. However, the team has generally been underperforming lately, especially given the talent on the roster, including Tyreek Hill, De'Von Achane, and Jaylen Waddle.
Miami is third in the AFC East at 1-5, having shown no signs of improvement from last season, where it finished 8-9 and missed the playoffs.
2) Brian Daboll (NYG)
Similar to Stefanski, New York Giants coach Brian Daboll has been struggling along for a few years now. He took to the Big Apple after coaching up an electric offense in Buffalo as offensive coordinator. However, his head coaching success hasn't measured up to his time with the Bills.
With a 2-4 record, Daboll has to show the ownership that he can build something with rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart and running back Cam Skattebo, or he could be out the door.
1) Aaron Glenn (NYJ)
Everything is falling apart around New York Jets coach Aaron Glenn. Discontent and frustration are growing within the team, fueled by questionable in-game calls and a sour locker room atmosphere.
Having yet to win a game this year, there's little reason to believe that Glenn will see the regular season finale.
