What do you guys think will be Kyles biggest weakness as a head coach this year?
I personally think we will see random little simple mistakes. Things like poor clock management or situational football that is something a veteran coach always does.
Kyle hasn't had a delay of game all of last year.
The only weakness is the players we currently have
Being a coordinator and being a head coach and a coordinator are two different things. Just cause he excelled at being a coordinator doesn't necessarily that same management will come when the entire team is looking to him.
I expect his delay of game penalties to be very low but when I said poor clock management, I meant more along the lines of situational football. Just ways to run out the clock at the end of game to not give the team the ball back, how to let another team score quickly so we get a chance to score again or anything. 2 minute drills on offense and defense.
Just those little scheming things that typically come with experience.
I expect him to be really good at everything, and eventually great at it all, but I think a lot of that comes with experience. So i don't think if he has these issues that it will be because of incompetence or stubborn. Just lack of experience since he is a rookie head coach.
The perceived weakness with most offensive minded coaches is not knowing enough about the defense, but that's not true in most cases. They have to know defenses entirely to attack it.
What I think the weakness in regards to Mike Shanahan is that he may have a tendency to put the emphasis on reloading the offensive personnel before the defense. You can have a good offense and try to make it great, but it may be at the cost of your defense.
I think John Lynch is the perfect flip side to Kyle. He went into FA this year and got some offensive guys for Kyle. Kyle knows enough to let Lynch have the early rounds on his defensive crushes. Then took over what he can get in the second day of the draft.
Seems symbiosis so far between the two guys.
