I am surprised at all the support for Cortez all of a sudden. I seem to remember the fans and media saying that he sucked and had no imagination when he was the Offensive Coordinator a few seasons back.
I think that Matt will take over as OC for the rest of the season and just modify Jenkin's system to incorporate the running game more. If a new OC was hired, he would want to put in a whole different system and that would set the team back to training camp. We would be throwing the season away.

I for one always liked cortez - yea, he did the whole "run on first down, pass on second" strategy all the time, but he was also the guy in 2001 that brought in the 6 pack that basically got us over the Smos and into the Grey Cup. I think an experienced guy with success is better than giving Dunnigan another title under his name (yes, I know Jenkins was an experienced guy with success, but he was showing that the talented players he coached made him look good - I think Cortez can do more with Crandell and Jones).
