Right, because coaches have no effect on their players....
What exactly do coaches do, again?
If your theory is correct we should just put a scarecrow behind the bench and save money.
Personally it is when I saw how little we were getting out of Jones and other supposedly elite talents, that's when I knew that Torts was doing a shit job.
Yeah, the only ones on that list that definitely aren't on Torts at all are the Z and Gus injuries. The rest you could at least a small bit attribute to Torts.
I'm going to go out on a limb and say that a young, pretty skilled F going 47 games without a goal has at least a little bit to do with the head coach - either not developing him, not putting him in the right positions to succeed, not helping his confidence or any or all of the three - just to pick one of those 11 examples.
And I love Torts and am very thankful for him, but it's pretty clear a large portion of this trainwreck of a season was on him.
