I wasn't trying to evaluate which one was worse, rather that they happened for different reasons. In 2013 the team just gave up. I didn't get that in 2015 ... it was more like the team was coached into failure.
After 2013 a more experienced GM may have realized that it was on the players and that a major change to the roster had to happen, rather than it being simply a matter of it being all on the Coach.
People questioned the coaching in 13 as well. I think the idea that its all the coaches fault is misplaced on here. Just like 2013 it was all av's fault (playing schneider coming off an injury in the final two games over roberto was a huge talking point on this forum), and this year it was willies fault.
They made mistakes people disagree with and that's fair, people often can make good cases regarding coaching decisions made by av and now willie, but in both scenarios i think people are in denial about some of the players as well, imo this core has failed time and time again in recent years and they need to take more of the blame as well.
