I disagree because Tomlin has nothing to do with the performance of the players. It's the players performance that loses the game, not the coach. I can say, that Tomlin should have made better decisions when keeping players and letting go players.
I cannot agree with what you say here. Yes he does have everything to do how his players perform. It’s coaching your players up as soon as they arrive upon being drafted. Putting all players in the best position to succeed. Discipline when needed and benching when needed and not enabling them. Bringing in free agents who fit your scheme and not just because you like his pedigree.
Look at what Belicheck did with virtual no names for years at a lot of positions. He drafted and brought in guys that he could coach up and that fit his plan. Guys like Brushi, Vrabel, a host of lesser known running backs like Deon Lewis and White, Edelman and Amendola, and lots of no name receivers who just fit into what he wanted to do.
No Tomlin likes their Pedigree. Just look at some of the guys he’s brought in through free agency and stupid trades. Nick Vannet are you out there! Vance McDonald who had a handful of good games but was nothing special. Derrick Watt a true FB he refuses to utilize. Butterfingers Moncrief who couldn’t catch a cold. I could go on and on.
Tomlin is very much responsible for his player’s performance, otherwise why even have a coach if he’s not held accountable for what gets put in the field.
One last example of Tomlin’s incompetence is the recent story of Kendrick Green finally figuring out what was causing his high snaps.He had been wearing gloves since he began his illustrious career as our center causing high snaps. Tomlin and one his lackeys Klemm never ever considered that? Are you kidding me! Tomlin never considers that could be an issue. I could go on and on but it makes me to depressed what this bafoon has done to the image of this once proud organization.
