Even with Pagano, how is it possible this team is so poorly coached?

Anything less is basically saying, "um, you know" you gave it a shot. Better luck next time. Pagano should be ripping the Asst. Coaches when their charges fuck up and they in turn should be ripping the players. Mental errors can happen, but repeated mental errors are a coaching problem.

I don't believe he was a coach with the ability to make game time adjustments. Players loved him and most would give their all for him, but come playoff time, so did all players from all teams. It was Peyton Manning that put Dungy over the top.

Bottom line, I was not a big fan of Dungy AS A COACH. My idea of a quality HC is not a cheerleader, but a coach who gets the most from his players by demanding it. A "nobody is more important than the team" type of coach. Respect isn't given, it's earned.
