Having faith in oneself certainly can go a long way to success. It can also lead to destruction. One thing that former Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll has seemingly always had is the belief that his approach to football is one of the best ways. It isn't anymore.
It stopped before Seattle relieved Carroll of his coaching duties after the 2023 season. He should have made changes to his coaching staff and defensive philosophy well before he was, for all intents and purposes, fired by the Seahawks. He didn't.
This past offseason, Carroll was hired to be the coach of the Las Vegas Raiders.
