What's funny to me..... maybe interesting to me, or just a conversational point.... I don't know how to word it... but here I go... when people talk about bad coaches, firing coaches...... And I find it interesting that a guy like McCarthy, as long as he's been in the game, as much as he's tied to football, and as much as he (presumably) studies the game, and is around the game, and just.... football is such a huge part of his life, it's amazing to me that he's so, so, so bad at understanding situational football. You could nab a guy off of a message board who'd understand the situationals 5 times better than Big Mike. I don't even think that's hyperbole. I'm not saying this hypothetical person would be better at designing plays, motivating players, running an offense, and all the other football "stuff", but... as far as understanding situations and time management, it's just something McCarthy has never grasped, and it's a big enough deal that it should, and probably will cost him his job.
