Has any coach been fired even after making the playoffs the previous year? (alien.top)

Google wasn't much help and I was curious. There's a loud contingent calling for Arthur Smith's job. If the Falcons win the south but lose handedly in the first round of the playoffs, could he still be fired in the off season?

Jim Caldwell made the playoffs with Detroit in 2016 and was fired at the end of the 2017 season when they missed the playoffs.

TBF, Matt Stafford was pulling wins out of his ass on that 2016 team.
