I have watched just about every snap of every game. Doesn't help me betting-wise, as I am about .500. These coaches I will list in no particular order as the worst coaches in the NFL. Any arguments against or additions are welcome. I am going to keep this kind of short.
Cliff Kingsbury- Arizona Cardinals
Many were surprised when he was initially hired as he didn't have a great college coaching resume. This guy coaches a little too recklessly. He continually goes for it on 4th down. A couple of weeks ago he went for it on 4th and more than 1 FOUR times inside the RedZone and failed all 4 times. Not only that but Seattle brought pressure all 4 times disrupting the plays. There was no adjustment as the game progressed. LAST WEEK they were up double digits midway through the fourth quarter and continually throwing the football and stopping the clock. It is nice to be aggressive at times but they were inside their own 15. They gave the Saints the ball back in good field position and didn't take much time off the clock. Seem like an idiot head coach to me.
Mat LaFleur - Green Bay Packers
I know many will label me a hater but this guy is going to be out of a job shortly after Rodgers retires. I know he has a great regular season record but they have been FAVORED in almost every game they have played. The first red flag for me was when they traded up for QB Jordan Love. I know LaFail isn't the GM but it's widely known that he and Gute were planning the replacement of Rodgers and well that has backfired and they are feeling the effects of it now. Imagine had they moved up just a little more and drafted Justin Jefferson? We would be talking about back to back champs but thank God that didn't happen Regardless they spent the 2020 draft by getting Rodgers a potential replacement, a complimentary RB in DIllion and a third-round tight end who has done very little that was projected 5th round. Fairly dumb for a team who couldn't stop the run in the NFC Champ game against the Niners and well still can't stop the run to this day. Oh and they also needed a complimentary receiver opposite Davante Adams. No trade up for JJ and they let WR Tee Higgins slip. Much like this season they let WR Pickens slip for Watson.. Hooray!! The Second flag was when they lost to the Buccaneers in the NFC Champ game. Down 8 late he decides to kick a FG instead of go for the TD. I think they were at the 8-yard line but regardless they never got the ball back and anyone who makes that decision should have their coaching ability questioned. Third red flag was the offensive game plan against the Niners in last year's playoff game. I know Rodgers took some heat but they lost to a blocked punt. that was it. The coach should take some major criticism for that. Now lastly this season is almost lost for them but they refuse to give their best offensive weapon the touches he deserves and that's RB Aaron Jones. Well they have been doing their running backs dirty there for a long time now by padding Rodgers stats with 1-2 yard TD passes but they continually throw the football on third and short and I thought they brought in Dillon for short yardages. At any rate, Jones is a dynamic runner but has only 30 carries in the last 3 games combined. Once Rodgers is gone, well maybe even before, this team has dark
Frank Reich - Indianapolis Colts
he makes a lot of goofy moves. Game plan seems to be off and now this mess at qb he has fling is bizarre.
Kevin Stefanski - Cleveland Browns
passes when they are effective running. Runs when they are passing well. Loses the close games and his teams make big mistakes late
Nathaniel Hackett - Denver Broncos
Hackett is probably going to be a one and done coach. The opening night loss was totally on him. I know Russell Wilson hasn't done him any favors but the game plan is really pass-happy right. and when he had running back Javonte Williams healthy he had no clue how to use him. the team often looks like a disorganized mess.
Dan Campbell - Detroit Lions
I really like Dan Campbell, players seem to like them and I like his rah-rah attitude but be fair he costs in the game in Minnesota with his constantly going for it on fourth down. I know Detroit is in the process of rebuilding so he should get some slack. he needs to figure out his time management and just short up the little things a little bit better.
Doug Pederson - Jacksonville Jaguars
It's amazing that Doug Peterson won a Super Bowl for the Philadelphia Eagles and was fired shortly after. it's been widely known that they have won the Super Bowl in spite of Peterson's coaching. Jaguars have lost four in a row and the last three I put a lot on the coaching. He abandons the run way too early and his team is undisciplined.
Brandon Staley - LA Chargers
Not only did Staley call a timeout to end the season last year when the Raiders were simply going to run the clock out. He is another coach who continually goes forward on fourth down and misses. The team has too much talent to be where they're at. they should have been an easy playoff team last year and should be one this year but they're going to struggle.
Mike McDaniel - Miami Dolphins
Two weeks ago against the Vikings the Dolphins had the ball inside their own 15 with less than a minute left in the first half. only down seven to three they try to get into field goal range and throw an interception. The Vikings add a field goal before halftime. Now last week against the Steelers he has a chance to kick a field goal to go up two scores but decides to go for it and get stuffed. I always question coaches who decide not to go up by the two scores
