RB Coach Duce Staley and QB Coach Josh McCown fired

Just now, Mr. Scot said:

I don't believe this was Tepper's decision.

Mind you, that doesn't necessarily mean it's a good decision.

I just find it interesting how people are trying to make it a “they wanted stroud” thing. 
 

Wilks did the same thing last year with staff so it’s not surprising.

Re-watching some of these pressers, it’s insane how much the coaches talk about the pre-draft evaluations.  It’s all about questions, understanding, learning, knowledge, processing, follow-up questions.

Like football is a physical sport.  What about THROWING at the actual combine?

I remember Gruden interviewing Cam and he didn’t know s**t when it came to Pro NFL X’s and O’s…but dude was a monster.

Here’s a presser from McCown from the preseason.  In hindsight it reads a little different.

of course it was his decision.  Just the way it was "leaked" that it was a tabor caldwell move is suspicious, tepper knows owners cannot get involved in firing staff so he outsourced the work

I think it's fairly safe to say McCown wanted Stroud, but I don't know if that has anything to do with his firing.

Staley? No idea who he wanted, or if he even had a preference.

Agreed, I will argue that Staley is the reason we went after Miles Sanders more than anyone If you wanted to give him some negative ticks.

If you watch that interview, McCown refers to Bryce “downloading” their new system at least 8 times.  He says “processing” a million times.  They talk “footwork” once, but glance over it.  

NFL quarterbacking is not a test, when do we throw the actual football?

I don’t even know what to think, this is a mess.

Always believed that was Staley and Reich both...

Hopefully burns gets a bunch of garbage stats and buffs his trade value. Otherwise there isn’t much on the roster worth a damn.

Our QBs couldn't play and our running backs couldn't run. Seems like the coaches for those two rightfully lost their jobs.
