Maybe Ty saved him from a fourth game with his fumble. Throw in the Seahawks game and it is just been a season of finding brutal ways to lose and then watching no one run away with the playoffs has led to so many "what ifs." I dont blame McCarthy for all the losses but we saw this week and we have seen in other sports a coaching change can spark a team just a bit. I wonder if that 3 game stretch of Seattle, Minnesota, Arizona would have played out differently if McCarthy would have been fired earlier. I guess it couldnt have played out any worse</blockquote>
