artisteer/iStock/Thinkstock(PHOENIX) — After their offense sputtered through the first seven weeks of the season, the Arizona Cardinals have decided to make a change.
The Cardinals fired offensive coordinator Mike McCoy on Friday, one day after a 45-10 loss to the Denver Broncos dropped Arizona to 1-6. Nearing the halfway point of the season, Arizona has not yet gained 300 yards in a single game, and hasn’t had a 100-yard rusher. That despite drafting highly touted quarterback Josh Rosen in the spring, and returning running back David Johnson.
This is the second consecutive year that McCoy has been fired during the season.
