Breaking - McCoy Fired - 10.19.18

[overseascardfan]

And where's Wilkes firing? I'm not happy yet.

If they fire Wilks, they have to fire entire defensive staff as they are his guys. That will come in offseason as you can’t replace an entire staff mid season.

I’m glad McCoy is gone but man I’ma be really pissed if he ends up the only scapegoat in this BS.

I'm aware that it's not likely it will happen but it needs to happen. What's the worst that can happen? We are already 1 & 6.

Glad it happened...just wish it was 7 games ago.

Yes, it's too early to rejoice. Unfortunately, this is just a symptom and cure situation where in the big picture, this is just another scapegoat move until proven otherwise. As I have mentioned before, there are too many Jeff Fisher similarities going on with this team and firing the OC for "their" failures is S.O.P. It never solves anything and it isn't what the real problem is.

Scary. He had all off-season to prep and this is the best playcalling he could imagine? The firing is more than warranted, he's going to probably not be an OC again with his past 2 season combined of 1 & 12 as an OC. Despicable that our front office would allow for this disaster to be hired by our organization.

This is his 3rd firing in less than two years from 3 different NFL teams. I'm sure he'll have another job soon.

NOW. Fire and replace this O Line cause it didnt work last year either.

 

[DemsMyBoys]

It's a start...

About damn time. I have faith in leftwich for some reason.

me too and I don’t know why.

He's the Sam Bradford of OCs.

I think with a better scheme the OL can be serviceable. Need to be zone blocking, not power blocking. They have a couple good athletic guys that can move, they just can't bully defenders 1 on 1.

McCoy now has plenty of time to spend with his family in San Diego.

This goes with the theme of the team, though....trying to fit square players into round positions. Just ain't working!

I agree but I wrote this several times yesterday that with this Oline A. Peterson looked old, washed up & finished trying to run behind it last year. He looks like a different player with Washington with already 3 100 yrs games. This line is even worse this year thus making DJ look like hot garbage. Major ungrades are needed.

Next? Please oh please let more heads roll

He should be the first

 

[Totally_Red]

Preview of coming attractions come January.

 

[Covert Rain]

He was horrible.

DC next. Defense looks as bad as offense constantly playing zone.

If we fire Halcomb, we might as well fire Wilks. I don't really see what Wilks offers without his DC. What does Wilks even do during the game other than look around in befuddlement?

Unfortunately, it's only a band-aid until proven otherwise.

Good. Needed to happen.
