Yeah, the coaching gap deserves more run/credit.
Nathaniel Hackett is what, like the 14th guy down from Shanahan in that tree (OK, an exaggeration, but still…) and he’s not an original member of that tree. His main accomplishment before the Packers was being really good at getting jobs from Doug Marrone.
Brandon Staley sounds great in interviews and speaks openly, which makes him popular in the media. He also exhibited a LOT of issues that would indicate he’s in over his head:
1) heavily penalized team
2) poor understanding/feel of when to stick to analytics and when to take a simple play (like getting points)
3) second-half of season collapse that included big upset losses
And Josh McDaniels? This dude was an absolute DISASTER as a head coach the first time around, and what New England assistant has ever nailed it outside of New England? The best fruit from that tree is Bill O’Brien or Brian Flores.
When a tree is that diseased, it usually is cut down…
