Except it wasn't, when the following year he went 6-10. 34-30 over 3 seasons. *0* playoff victories.
Or maybe McCarthy diligently took the play calling reins over when he felt he finally had enough individual player capability insight and fire power and also Dak finally willing to conquer his foot work issues. I am not a fan of Jerry the GM, besides that he has been a figurehead in that role by many accounts.
Sure, but he wasn’t the OC and he wasn’t the QB coach. It seems obvious that he felt Dak could benefit from his more direct guidance.
Coaching matters...something Jerry never understood.
This is the Dak Prescott I told you was in him all along. I didn't know when it would manifest itself but I have always been confident that Dak has the ABILITY to play at this level. I have always blamed his shortcomings coming out of college on the crap training he received in college and the continued shortcomings on the crap coaching he was getting in Dallas. I could always see the talent. I just didn't know what it would take to bring it out. Now I know.. It took Mike McCarthy to bring it out.
Same guy he always was. Now he has a plan.
It sure made it very difficult on us fans knowing that we would be out coached most weeks and we had no chance in big games
Results are inarguable for sure. No question in my mind. I remember what all the narratives were as the last few season ended and coach Mac was a big part of that. I refuse to fully blame KM because coach Mac and above had every opportunity to move on from him prior.
Bet you the chargers would give him back to us lolB b but we'll miss Kellen Moore
Sure but he was saddled with Kellen Moore from the Garret era. When you are a head coach and don’t get to hire your staff, the team becomes compartmentalized. Moore was a Jerry staff pick and Mike couldn’t just walk in take over the offense.
McCarthy is a damn fine coach. He has a long history on excellent Staffs with elite QBs and the WCO. Credit Dak for making the transition and putting Mike's tutelage to work.
but essentially Moore was shoved onto MM. now that MM is gone we can see the offense's growth
He could/should but I think the HC is even on a "hotter" seat than KM
From what we were told, MM kept his distance and let KM do his thing.
1. Garrett is/was not a coach in the sense of coaching players.
You have two teams that are clearly better without Kellen than with him. In SD, they might fire the whole coaching staff. I suspect Kellen might get one more shot after this but the shine has come off him real fast.
