5. Hue Jackson

Two more losses and the Cleveland Browns will find themselves on the wrong side of NFL history by becoming the second team to finish an entire season without winning a single game. Unfortunately, with upcoming games against the San Diego Chargers and Pittsburgh Steelers, there’s a good chance the Browns are going to end up making history, especially since the offense has scored 13 points or less in six-straight games.

Injuries at quarterback have been one of the key factors behind Cleveland’s struggles this season as Robert Griffin III made just his third start in Week 15 against the Buffalo Bills. While the argument can be made the Browns would have won a few close games with Griffin in the lineup, it still doesn’t take away from the lack of weapons the Browns’ offense has provided their quarterbacks throughout the season.

Most head coaches expect to struggle during their first year or two with a new team, but not even Hue Jackson expected this season to turn out this bad in Cleveland. Jackson certainly deserves another chance to prove he’s capable of handling the job, but a fresh start may be the best option for both parties heading into 2017.
