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.
