I basically have the same thought about Tomlin. You hear former players talk about the accountability demanded from Tomlin and I think it’s a specific personality thing where he can get guys to play their best for him.
It’s different from guys like McVeigh where the protégés are valuable because of the offensive schemes they learn from these coaches (I’m sure this is oversimplifying).
Ultimately the skill set of a good CEO style coach probably isn’t easy to cascade to the other coaches compared to the offensive minded coaches.
