[QUOTE="Magooch, post: 1085266, member: 17987"] Yeah, it's a tough call. I get that Bisaccia isn't the one who bobbled the kick...but at the same time at this point I'm not sure he really deserves the benefit of the doubt. In the same way... it wasn't Joe Barry who was out there missing tackles or assignments or blowing coverages, but ultimately he's still responsible for the on-field product. If we're not going to hold our couches accountable for the things the players under their charge are doing, why even bother having coaches in the first place? And it'd be one thing if we'd had generally good special teams all year long and just had a guy come up short in an extremely high-pressure moment. Players are human, it happens. But when special teams is repeatedly a problem week-in and week-out I have to think it goes deeper than just simple player error. By extension then my general feeling is that if Bisaccia should be held to account for his units' players...then LaFleur should similarly be held accountable for the coaching staff beneath him. When Matt gives Joe Barry chance after chance after chance, he's saying "I am satisfied with my defense's performances". When Matt hears all season long that Drayton is a liability on ST and doesn't do anything about it until special teams are a huge factor in playoff elimination, he's saying "You have to be directly responsible for a loss in the biggest game of the year before I will take action". When Matt continues with Bisaccia AND promotes him to an assistant head coach role, he's saying "Your performances have been so outstanding that you deserve to be rewarded for them". Once again, I think Matt does a lot of good things, but I can't get on board with any of that. I said it months ago - the company he keeps around him and his unwillingness to make hard decisions regarding his colleagues are an anchor that will prevent him from reaching the next level as a coach.
