SAN DIEGO -- The scowl was gone for San Diego Chargers head coach Mike McCoy during the AFC coaches breakfast at the NFL owners meetings last week, replaced by a more relaxed smile.
McCoy looked reporters in the eye when they asked questions, taking his time to offer an informed response.
And even though McCoy’s table was one of the most sparsely attended among reporters there last week -- a 4-12 record will do that -- he stayed for the entire session.
After three years of on-the-job training that has led to awkward confrontations at times, McCoy is working harder to find his comfort zone with the media.
