Let’s do it the other way, since it’s a debate I’ve already had a thousand times on this site in 2014 and again in 2016. You think we lost those playoff games because of the head coach? Beyond the routine second guessing of plays, what is it that you point to?
The team got off to an incredibly slow start against the Packers in 2016. They were not ready to play from the opening snap. I do think that goes on coaching.
I’m not trying to nitpick Garret. And any call that doesn’t work can be second guessed.
The difference in my perspective is that, ultimately, it’s his job for the team to win games. That’s the same for every head coach across the league. It’s a results oriented league. Nobody cares about the means, as long as the ends are what they are supposed to be.
So at the end of the day, without nitpicking individual plays. Garret hasn’t done enough for the team to get past a divisional round to this point.
Obviously it’s a difference in perspective. You clearly think the head coach isn’t that responsible for wins and losses. Which is your right to feel that way.
I feel differently.
