The Lass Word: Blaming Coaches Is Valid

The buck stops at the office door.

I have never coached a football team at any level, much less a team at the elite level of the National Football League. I am not present at Green Bay Packers practices every day, observing the players and how they go about their business. I am not there in the locker room to get a feel for the chemistry and relationship between coaches and players. I have never pored over game film of an upcoming opponent to put together a game plan.

I can’t tell whether the coach called a bad play, or whether he called a good play that the players just messed up.
