In game management, not just time management. It should be his decision on whether or not to go for it on 4th down, with the offense or special teams, or if we are going to onside, squib, go for touchback or try to pin the opposing team inside the 20.

Also he gives speeches to get the team hyped and ready to play.

He does what all the other coaches that don't call plays does.

This is why it is hard to hold him accountable for overall success of the team beyond specific in-game decisions.
For all we know some of those are even being dictated to him.

If it's not his philosophy, his game plan and he has no power to makes any real changes then how can he be blamed for the direction of the team?

The players seem to do their best to finish the fight for him.

This reminds me of employees who think the CEO doesn't "do" anything. Head coach oversees the entire staff and roster.

Granted, in Dallas the HC is neutered but that's a Jerry thing. JG's eventual replacement will do the same if he wants to keep his job.
