Why has the Bill Belichick coaching tree produced such imperfect fruit? (theathletic.com)

I’d assume he doesn’t mentor these guys. He just tells them to focus on their job and leave him the F alone. Big difference between coordinator and coach, also. Mcdaniels is a terrible coach but good coordinator. There’s half a dozen of these genius’ out there who can’t control/coach an entire team.

Are we sure this is true? I agree with you in principle, that you could be a good coordinator but a bad coach, but I don't know when McDaniels has ever really succeeded without Brady. And when he left to the Broncos, they went 10-6, 14-2 and 13-3 without him.

I’m pretty sure he got the job in Denver after the 2008 season when he made a Matt Cassel offense look half decent lol

McDaniels ... good coordinator

Not really true.
