NFL Game Picks: Week 12

Absorb as much action as you can folks, because the NFL regular season is somehow almost three quarters of the way done. For some teams, that's probably going to be a relief, like the Vikings, Texans, Falcons and Redskins, each of which may need to make wholesale changes this offseason to move their organizations forward. The Vikings and the Texans almost certainly will be looking for new head coaches next year, while the growing rift between Mike Shanahan and Robert Griffin III may lead to the head coach's removal from Washington. Most people think Mike Smith is safe, but really, should he be? Smith boasts an incredible regular season resume, but as many people know he hasn't been able to find success in January. Smith has also had plenty of talent under his disposal throughout the years, so it may be hard to tell how much he has really added to the roster's potential. It's unlikely that Smith will get the boot, but expect a few coordinator changes with the way his team is flailing. Hot seat watch won't full ignite for a few weeks, but front offices are already scouting the ideal candidates they're looking for. Last year seven NFL head coaches were fired on the infamous "Black Monday" and it's very possible, with the way some teams are heading, the NFL can match that total this year.
