jgcrawfish 232 Posted October 19, 2018 Hefty Leftwich to take over as OC. McCoy not announced as fired but "relieved". I'm sure it's the AZ fans who are actually relieved. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jimaveli 119 Posted October 19, 2018 As long as Leftwich doesnt have to throw anything quickly, things should improve at least slightly. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Frozenbeernuts 1,652 Posted October 19, 2018 I had no idea Leftwich was a coach. I am going to be very interested to see how this plays out Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brutal Brutus 182 Posted October 19, 2018 Leftwich is a product and a left over coach of Arians era. With a rookie QB, I don't see a lot of changes to the scheme taking place. He'll probably implement a few more vertical routes for the WR's and should know how utilize DJ a bit better. I could see DJ getting a bit of a bump in production, but this team is still garbage.

dcgangstas 41 Posted October 19, 2018 Rotoworld now reporting McCoy is gone...fired. The admin staff was probably working on the termination papers at half-time. Don't know if I've ever seen a team take a timeout on the 2nd play of the game, and then immediately throw a pick-six. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ray_T 587 Posted October 19, 2018 Actually I'm somewhat excited about this. While Leftwich didnt make it work in the NFL, it wasnt because of his lack of knowledge or leadership. it was that slow release on the throws. This could, potentially be a good move.

Kopy 489 Posted October 19, 2018 WOW. That's a blast from the past. Oh, the man crush I had on lefty coming out of college. Never panned out like I thought it would. But hopefully this is the start of a successful coordinator/coaching career in phase 2 of his life. Except against Seattle of course. Good luck lord byron. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tanatastic 2,061 Posted October 19, 2018 I’m shocked that a guy who was fired midseason last year wasnt good enough this year. How can GMs be this bad? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jgcrawfish 232 Posted October 19, 2018 I’m shocked that a guy who was fired midseason last year wasnt good enough this year. How can GMs be this bad? So many teams/owners/GM's are terribly afraid of "new". They think it's safer to recycle old, used up trash. Fortune favors the bold. McVay in LA is a prime example. Bring in the guy, let him do it his way and get out of the way. Conversely, I liked what the Cowboys did years ago with Jason Garrett. The problem is that now, years later, he's proven that it wasn't the right choice, but that's in large part because he is just a puppet to Jerry Jones. I'll take my chances all day long on an innovative forward thinker over a Jeff Fisher clone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

frank 2,143 Posted October 20, 2018 I will never forget the game where he played on a broken leg, and his linemen carried him down the field on the winning drive. Or maybe he was being a big baby and someone else wouldn't have needed to be carried. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
