Maybe. But he had a horrific game on Saturday. Inexcusable.

Why did he not insist that his best RB get more than 5 carries? And why did he let Ash do his soft zone coverage that has never worked? And why did he let Denbrock keep screwing the pooch with fade passes to tight ends that can't catch?

He had a job to do Saturday to overrule his coordinators in obvious situations and he didn't. That's on him. And it's also on him if his team doesn't play with their hair on fire. He just stood there looking stoic, you know, like Ty Willingham. This reflected on the players who also played without any fire or passion. Look on the opposite sideline and you will see and feel the fire and determination in Sitake's face. Good news is that Freeman knows how to get him and his team to rebound after such a loss. Still a very good HC, imo.
