Mike is starting to chop a few heads on the offensive side of the football. Other changes still to come?

Curious that both fired coaches were in charge of positions that had starters that looked overweight all season

I'd have to think split time at WR and QB coach will be next on the list of things to fix from 1265.

I wish them the best. I approve of the changes.

I'm surprised he didn't just promote them to "Assistant Head Coach" and then hire someone else to do their jobs for them.

Hard to be happy about someone being fired but changes are needed to get the O back to the top of the league and not the bottom. I wish these coaches the best of luck.

If we're truly cleaning house based on employees being overweight, Ted Thompson is going to have to fire MM.
