Of course you did! As I pointed out the other day, for every 1 thing you’re happy with, there’s 99 you’re unhappy with. Labeling Flus a bad head coach two months into his rookie season was not a fair evaluation. There were things I didn’t like early on (like the acronyms), but I was willing to give him a fair shot. He’s had it now. Miss the playoffs and he’s done. Then we give our 3rd QB in a row a new coach in his 2nd season. Wash, rinse, repeat.
You win with good players. A head coach has a couple of key influences
Getting the players jacked up to perform
Not making basic strategic mistakes
You could be 4-13 but the coach could get a good evaluation because the players - however bad they are - are playing as hard as they can for the coach and you can see that the team strategy portion is executed properly. Clock management, down and distance calling, throwing in wrinkles when they make sense but not doing utterly head scratching Les Miles type shit. Correct player substitution and management.
3 extremely major fuckups towards the end of one game. That's pretty bad.
