He actually makes decent trades lately, I think he has improved in that regard. The current state of the roster is because of the talent Coughlin ran off. If we didn’t have all our actual pro-bowl level players on other teams we would be better. The fact that Caldwell has drafted multiple pro-bowl level players and found many starting level players actually makes me think he is good. We couldn’t get any receivers for years before Caldwell. I would tend to agree with you. Are some coaches better than others? Sure, but to a smaller degree than is perceived by the fans. Every NFL coach knows the X's and O's to a depth most fans cannot comprehend. They all know what tactical scheme is strong or weak against a given play. The best coaches can: a) anticipate what their opponent will call in a given situation slightly better than their counterparts, b) know their own personnel's strengths and weaknesses and try to take advantage of the former while minimizing the latter, and c) attack the tactical and personnel weaknesses of their opponents while simultaneously hiding their own flaws. But all of these differences are marginal and not as significant as perceived by fans. Talent plays a far bigger role, imo. You can have a play on paper where you say "ok, the DT is double teamed here, so we should be good" but that DT is Aaron Donald and he still blows up the play. Or "we have this receiver doubled here so we are good" but that receiver is DeAndre Hopkins and he still catches the ball. Do coaches play a role? Sure. But again, its not as big as people think. Its the Jimmy's and the Joe's more than the X's and the O's. That's why I am a guy who is beating the drum so loud to get Caldwell out... his record here is BRUTAL. His lack of leadership has created a culture where no one wants to stay here, and you can only blame the X's and O's to a marginal degree. At some point, you have to see HE is the problem. Black Monday can't get here soon enough!
This is a results-oriented business. There are no trophies or titles given for "moral victories" or for "winning the draft". Our record with DC is 37-86. 6-10 is our 2nd best season in 8 years of Caldwell leadership. These are the FACTS.
