I don’t know, is there? McKee kind of underperformed this year and QB recruiting has been rather underwhelming. That could all be laid at Shaw’s doorstep, but it hardly qualifies as evidence that Pritchard “has done at least a pretty good job as QB coach.”

McKee underperformed this year b/c the slo-mo-RPO was absolutely the wrong offense for him. He probably did as well as he could with the tools he was given. One could argue it was the only option given our relatively sieve-like OL. What we saw was what we got -- a relatively inexperienced guy with a cannon arm who couldn't really run well and took a lot of hits due to a bad scheme, bad line and relatively poor pocket awareness. And once the injuries piled up for WR and RB there really wasn't anything left in the larder. Having said that, he has a shot at the next level.
When Tavita wasn't let go immediately, I started to wonder. But I don't recall any announcements being made about current staff leaving, just new hires coming in. I'm skeptical but let's hope this doesn't turn out to be a case of someone's entire career being framed by one great game on the field.
