I'm with a lot of people who believe Kubiak got canned because of that embarrassing loss on national TV (technically we had a national TV game, doubt that there was in fact a "national audience" viewing the game) to the Jags, the second loss to them this season and a game which featured a massive breakdown in team discipline as demonstrated by gobs of penalties and rookie Swearington making a total jerk out of himself in an incident that also drew a penalty and was in full view of the cameras.
