The McDermott Problem: Blame Game

[Megatron96]

Yeah, sounds about right. I always kind of liked McDermott in the early days, but as his HC tenure has gone on, it's pretty easy to see him freak out at the end of close big games. Him and Todd Bowles seem to react in similar ways in those big situations.

I read somewhere a couple years ago that McD "was a solid defensive coach but lacks nuance in his play-calling." I wasn't sure what that meant at the time, but now I think I do, and I have to agree with that sentiment.
