Originally posted by AXEGRINDER:Originally posted by Niners_D:Matt Lafleur is a bright young coaching mind, but does he have what it takes to be a head coach? His comments were interesting, he blames the players lack of fire, he blames the coaching on the defensive side of the ball, but I don't see him taking any responsibility for his play-calling. A good tactician can be brilliant in the booth, but you have to also be a leader when you are the HC. I can't see this lasting long if it continues.
