Sincere question: are there examples of when firing a staff, of a bottom-tier team, mid-season helped accelerate a turn-around? (alien.top)

I’m struggling with this one. Obviously I want this coaching staff gone, but what benefit does letting them go now bring? Would love to hear about past successes if anyone has any.

There are examples of teams having winning records after letting a coach go, but i dont think you fire a coach midseason to try to save the current season. It is more to see if the issue truly was the coaches or the players. I believe it allows you to have a new way of looking at the roster and evaluating players heading into the offseason that you may not get while keeping a bad coach around.
