Is Zimm or Harris the interim Head Coach when McCarthy is fired?

Everyone assumes it’s Jerry’s Boy Zimm but the defense hasn’t exactly done wonders this year either and Harris was named Asst Coach to keep him from bailing with DQ. (I bet he regrets that!)

Unless a miraculous turnaround happens next week, I believe Jerry will cut the cord somewhere. He did it to Wade Phillips in his lame duck year. Garrett didn’t lose the team like this his last contract year and stayed to the end.

Only other option would be something like Campo’s last year where news was already leaking before the season was over about Jerry flying Parcells around. Maybe something like that if Jerry goes for a splash signing again?

funny how nobody considers our offensive coordinator for interim duty, and rightly so

I'm not feeling the Harris love. His group is very complicit in this disaster.
What's a CB to do when there's no pressure on the QB? Carson not ready, and Diggs doesn't tackle. Al Harris will be in Washington next year and can't wait.

WR's are running wide open all over the field, our safeties play flat-footed, our entire secondary take horrible angles, our secondary looks confused all the time....... I could go on and on.

I agree that the lack of pressure doesn't help, but WR's are running around with nobody within 5 yards of them on a regular basis. How many times have we seen broken coverages?

True....but that would be on Zimm's scheme too. This roster is not good enough to compete and I do question some of the CB's heart & fight. Al Harris in Washington next year.

Harris should be the guy. He doesn’t coordinate anything and can concentrate on motivating. They need a young spark that is relatable. It won’t happen though.

Thought about throwing in Schotty as the token offense choice, but yeah… worst offense in some time. Addition by subtraction at this point taking Big Mac out as OC.

jerry said he wont fire a HC in season again.
He felt it was a mistake to fire wade, in retrospect.

Get the Special Teams coach to be head coach. Thats the only halfway decent unit on the team

Does it matter at this point?
Heck, make Rowdy the HC the same results.
