Oh, Todd Wash needs to go, as well.

The most damning evidence against him may be how poor that D looked in the first half. These guys can't just rely on underwear practices to get their reps. That's a decision made by the coach(es), and they should be accountable. The defense is young, and lets emotion get the best of them too often. You don't have swagger when the opposition is running a track meet on you.

I don't think the youth on the team would listen to Coughlin - you'd see more of the Antonio Brown type of reaction - disobedience, disrespect, complaining in public forums (social media, tv camera), and requests to be traded somewhere more "fun".

This is going to have to happen from within - the players are going to have to be the ones to hold each other accountable - no stupid penalties, tell the coaches when you need to be on the field, or, if someone like TC does come in, full buy-in of the system.
