The coordinators

I said I think both coordinators should return next year, but I'd hope to see a drastic improvement in the red zone. Touchdowns and defense win championships.

There are always coaches available, including people we probably haven't heard about.

On defense the logical choice would be Perry Fewell....on offense the Redskins could have Gruden call the plays... it's too much of a gamble for both of these idiots to return in 2017...., there's no guarantee the red zone offense would be better.

Keep Barry until we see what he can do with a tad bit of talent

I feel that regardless if you keep Barry or bring in someone new, you need a significant upgrade in team speed. It was awful on Thanksgiving watch Dak run into the endzone while having Preston Smith and Will Compton chase him only to gain no ground on him. Also with increased team speed, it would allow players to make mistakes, but the ability to recover. I believe playing Cravens at safety, over Donte Whitner, these next four games would be a step in the right direction. It might not be a long term solution but would at least help the next four games, in my opinion.

Yea that would work.
Or we could have the ability to collapse the pocket and lay a slobberknocker on him for a 10 yard loss.

Yeah as just give them time to really catch their act together. It starts with the Kirk Cousins and if the team lets him leave in FA, it would be a huge blow. But really think it is about trying to get to the next level and beyond.

I don't think I can take another year of Barry. It comes down to the struggles on 3rd down. Last week was the back breaker. He should have came off the bus blitzing Palmer. And although he did blitz more, he wasn't really doing it on 3rd down, when it mattered most. He should have had the same game plan the Cardinals did and make Palmer uncomfortable. Watch this week, he'll let Wentz sit back in the pocket on 3rd down and only rush 4. It looks like he coaches scared on 3rd down. There is no reason why he shouldn't be getting after a rookie QB with shit wr's this week. He won't do it. He has to go.

I don't have a huge problem with the Red Zone issues at the moment. We are still top 10 in points per drive in the NFL.

Biggest issues is we are LAST IN DRIVES PER GAME. Which means our defense NEVER gets off the field. So every drive must result in points.

I don't think people understand how great our offense has been this year. It's remarkable

If our defense was halfway decent we are 10-2 at least.

Agreed. Only game we really didn't have a chance to win was week 1 against Pittsburg. Other than that, all our losses are a few "coulda shoulda woulda" away from being wins...

What really bothers me with our defense is that in each and every single game, there is a moment when they seem to all be on fire and make some key stops... only to collapse a few minutes later on crucial drives!

That's frustrating but would tend to show this defense is only a few pieces away from being just good enough to allow this offense to make this team a really scary one.

For starters, I can care less what our coordinators names are...I just want to see this team win.

But for argument's sake, if we're condemning Barry because he hasn't raised mediocre players to another level, can't the very same argument be made against McVay?

Prove to me that McVay has "schemed" his mediocre run blocking line in order to improve Red Zone scoring? Heck, we rarely call a running play down there & when we do, it's usually just stuffed.

I realize defending Barry gets a lot tougher & my main point on that is the talent drop off between offense & defense. To be honest, Scott McL's moves on that side of the ball just haven't panned out this year. Outside of CB, most areas are down.

Team speed is a big issue, especially at ILB and S.

In Barry's defense though, even though he gets ripped for not blitzing enough, this team is 7th in sacks and just one sack from tying for 4th place.

If Barry is the one who told McL to avoid Defense in the draft and sign Ziggy and Bruton, then I'm in agreement...time for him to go.

But, if he's playing the talent that he is handed, I'm not sure many DC's besides the top 2-3 coordinators would really have much of an improvement.

Again, I won't lose sleep on who our coordinators are, but I think trashing Barry is a little unfair.
