Most of the time, coaches take more blame than is appropriate. After all, coaches don’t block, tackle, fumble or grab facemasks. The players do that, so they’re ultimately more responsible than guys with headsets, bad comb-overs and beer guts. Most of the time. Sunday afternoon in Atlanta, Georgia was not one of those times.
