McDermott is on more stable ground than Whaley and, to use a wrestling term, has leverage. It's on GM to play nice with new coach.

@john_wawrow What if McDermott has final say over the 53? What could they hang on Whaley? He didn't have final say on the coach or players?
I'm willing to get on board the McDermott train but if Taylor is not retained and a talented and/or experienced OC (either Lynn or Turner) is not hired then he's going to fail.
That's just reality.
I have not seen one report saying that McCoy is nearly a "done deal."
All I've read is that McDermott wants to bring him aboard.
Newsflash: every team with a staff opening wants McCoy as their OC.
I'm just saying it will be a horrible press conference. My belief that it will be a failed hire is separate from that observation.
Like I said in another thread - I can get behind Dick Jauron Jr. as long as (a) Tyrod is retained, AND (b) Lynn OR McCoy is offensive coordinator.
Anything less will be doomed for failure.
