Coaching definitely matters.
Player attitude and mindset and field awareness also definitely matter.
People who say that Ross had bad coaches before this year are ignoring the huge success Marvin Lewis has had with WRs while HC of the Bengals. In fact, I'm trying to remember if there was a top 3 round WR bust drafted under Marvin and I can't think of one off the top of my head, other than maybe Ross, but I'm not ready to call him a bust-bust at this point.
From what I can tell, Ross' problems are in the field awareness area and he gets lost. But I could be wrong about that, although it does explain his consistent out-of-positionness and inconsistent play.
