    It starts with McDermott; NFL teams are a reflection of their head coach. As much as McDermott’s sideline demeanor would suggest otherwise, this coaching staff is an unserious operation.

    I have a hard time getting too angry with the players when they are saddled with uninspired and predictable schemes, all while the coaching staff makes the kind of amateur game management blunders that an 11-year-old playing Madden would have gotten correct.
