I am a huge LR fan, but wondering if he is in a difficult situation as OC, but with head coach duties.
Let me illustrate: Head Coach: "Come on defense, the offense is doing all they can. You coaches and players are going to have to get your crap together!" Offensive Coordinator: "It's OK, defense. There's some series that we are not taking advantage of the situation. We are going to work harder to have your back."
It's like some coaches who have their own kids on a team. They have higher expectations of their own and may ride them harder. It seems like in his press conferences he has a higher standard for the offense than the defense. Do any of you see this and do you think it is also the same at practices? I don't want to see him give up OC duties, but I think he has a higher standard of expectations for "his" side of the ball and it can't be that way.
