ESPN’s Pat McAfee teed off on an NFL head coach and accused him of throwing his quarterback under the boss following a tough Week 8 loss.
Pat McAfee donned a panda costume for today’s edition of his hit show. He was joined by former Indianapolis Colts head coach Chuck Pagano, who also served as defensive coordinator for the Chicago Bears and Baltimore Ravens.
So Pagano, who was highly regarded among his guys in Indy, has first-hand knowledge of the importance in not publicly criticizing your players too harshly.
It’s understandable that Pagano and McAfee took issue with what New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll said about quarterback Daniel Jones after Monday night’s 26-18 road loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Speaking to reporters after the game, Daboll said that Jones felt “terrible” about a costly turnover in the fourth quarter and that he owned up to the mistake. Some folks ripped Daboll for seemingly blaming his quarterback.
