Gus Bradley was probably a lame duck coach since about the halfway point of this season, but that still didn't make his firing any less awkward.

Bradley was fired immediately following his Jacksonville Jaguars lost 21-20 at the Houston Texans, and Bradley had to ride the team plane home after being fired.
That's a tough thing for anyone to handle, and the Jaguars probably could've handled the situation more tactfully. Bradley deserved to be fired — he was 14-48 in just under four season after all — but that was a brutal way to be fired.
