In my opinion that’s even more of an indictment on the coaching staff, because the majority of their job is instilling fundamentals and ensuring the position coaches under them are meeting their expectations. It’s not a coincidence we have so many penalties, blown coverages and miscues every week. Top-Bottom the coaching staff is completely inept, they aren’t properly teaching good and sound foundational techniques and fundamental mindsets into these young players.
I think at times the coaches do get more hate than they deserve, but that doesn’t mean the coaches are vindicated from responsibility in this mess. I know many are quick to say “well, they are only as good as the players they have to work with” but I think that’s just an excuse for average coaches when they don’t elevate others. Great coaches still find a way to get the most out of the roster they lead, and at the very least the ensure their guys aren’t in a position to beat themselves. You might lose, but it won’t be because you dropped the ball. There’s been tons of games in which I feel like we just beat ourselves, and there is no effort by the staff to implement changes or hold those who are undisciplined accountable. Flus and Getsy have no fire, and no confidence to lead a group of grown men correctly.

Agreed.
I don’t care about the playcalling complaints. That’s a meaningless fan bitching that every team gets when they lose.
But the sloppy execution errors and constant penalties are a coaching issue.
Can’t disagree with any of that. I still think the coaching staff needs to go. Just trying to justify the pass heavy play calling.
