The blame goes all around, though, it's not just him. Players gotta execute and we need better players in certain positions......

It didn't help that Watson had a bad game. I'm afraid when he's not at his best, we have no chance....
We got outcoached and outplayed badly. It has zero to do with what positions the HCs played and where they played them.

The top 5 offenses in the NFL this year were led by a BYU OL, a Miami of Ohio WR, a backup QB from University of Idaho, a defensive back from Purdue, and a WR from D3 John Carroll.

The idea that what and where you played football determines your coaching ability is absurd. There are 7 former HOF players who have coached and only one was good at it (Ditka), and only Munchak coached in the modern era. Most NFL football coaches these days were middling players at small colleges who were obsessive football nerds.
