[NFL] 2008 Offseason

I know 12 teams are still playing but today was the start of the offseason for 20 other teams. Here are the current headlines:

Ravens fire head coach Billick after 5-11 season

The Brian Billick era in Baltimore came to end on Monday as he was fired by the Ravens, NFL Network's Adam Schefter is reporting.

The Ravens will hold a press conference at 3:30 p.m. ET Monday at the team's Owings Mills facility to announce their decision to let Billick go.

The news comes one day after the Ravens finished their disappointing season by snapping a nine-game losing streak with a 27-21 victory over the Steelers. Baltimore finished the season 5-11, the worst finish in Billick's eight years as head coach.

Billick, who led the Ravens to the Super Bowl XXXV title in 2000, took over as head coach in 1999.

Dolphins GM Mueller fired as Parcells begins shakeup

DAVIE, Fla. -- Bill Parcells' shakeup of the Miami Dolphins began Monday with the firing of general manager Randy Mueller.

Assistant director of player personnel Mike Baugh and college scouting coordinator Rick Thompson also departed.

Also at risk of being fired was coach Cam Cameron, who said he would discuss his future with Parcells this week. On Sunday, the Dolphins became only the eighth team to finish 1-15.

Parcells began work Thursday as executive vice president of football operations.

Mueller was the Dolphins' general manager for three seasons but was in charge of personnel decisions only since coach Nick Saban left a year ago.

Mueller received mixed reviews for his moves in 2007, which included the acquisition of free-agent linebacker Joey Porter and the selection of receiver Ted Ginn Jr. and quarterback John Beck in the draft.

Mueller was general manager of the New Orleans Saints in 2000-01.

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- Marv Levy stepped down as the Buffalo Bills general manager Monday, confident he has the team headed in the right direction despite a second consecutive 7-9 finish.
