I need to preface what I'm about to say by first explaining that I cannot stand Collin Cowherd.  

 

The guy is a bloviating narcissist that speaks mainly straight out of his own over-priveledged and clearly hyper-entitled shallow concept of a reality that exists nowhere but in his mind.

 

However, he mentioned something that got me thinking.  In today's NFL, you need a coaches that can out think and out game plan you.  The rah rah coaches can only take a team so far.  An example...  Mike Tomlin of the squeelers...  He seems like a players coach, a coach that brings 100% intensity, but relies on others to figure out how best to strategize and create a game plan.  

 

While that type of coach is great when you have a hot team with alot of talent on it.  But it just doesn't get the job done when your talent isn't elite in key areas anymore.

 

I fear this is how our coaches are...  

 

I will say, I give much credit to Babich this week.  His game plan was far more aggressive and helped protect our secondary.  

 

Fish just seems a bit out of his element.  It just seems like his concepts change from drive to drive.  There's no cohesion to his game plan.

 

And I honestly don't think of Bradley as offensive or defensive mastermind.  I could be wrong, but I just don't see it.

 

And in the modern NFL that we live in now, you need that type of coach.  The Mike Ditka type coaches aren't gonna get things done.
