For struggling NFL teams the end of the regular season triggers an annual exercise in bloodletting known around the league as Black Monday and this year proved no exception as a number of head coaches were fired.

After failing to ?make the 14-team playoff tournament that will culminate with the February 8 Super Bowl, the ?Cleveland ?Browns, Las Vegas Raiders and Arizona Cardinals showed their coaches the door ?in hopes a change will turn things around.

The Browns parted ways with Kevin Stefanski after six seasons, one day after the team put the finishing touches on a 5-12 campaign that left them in last place in the AFC North division for a second consecutive year.
