There just seems to be a very deeply rooted problem here that leads to dozens of great players and college heroes suddenly shitting themselves when the bright lights are on. 26 years without a playoff win and constant prime-time struggles that span 15 years.
Maybe it's the lack of a practice facility. Maybe our schemes are too easy to figure out for good coaches. Maybe we don't throw in enough wrinkles. Maybe we get too conservative. Maybe we have weak spots (that we don't address in FA) that get exposed under the intense playoff spotlight. Maybe a combo of everything. I do know that it's been going on for way too long for us to be pinning it on one guy.
That won't stop some from making the red head the face of our playoff failures.
Agreed. I think at the root is an organization that tolerates and even exudes acceptance for mediocrity.
