...and this team is losing at the details. They aren't consistently getting flat whipped. They're consistently losing by way of details.
* Punt block assignment miscues (eg who to block and when to release) - DETAILS
* Coverage misreads and/or misprioritizing progressions post coverage read - DETAILS
* Failure at opportunity cost eval at the QB position (pushing the ball down the field into coverage rather than being willing to go to the low risk, low/medium reward underneath eligible) - DETAILS
* Not staying play-side long enough on Outside Zone runs before looking backside - DETAILS
* Missing blocking assignments in the running game (both 1st level and 2nd level) - DETAILS
* Failure to maintain technique on blocking assignments (like crippling hands to the face for no reason) - DETAILS
* Failure in ball security - DETAILS
* Pattern match coverage misreads in Quarters - DETAILS
* Failure to maintain gap integrity (either by being out of your gap or having your alignment wrong or your shoulder position misleveraged) - DETAILS
* Failure to consider down and distance, recognize threats, and get appropriate depth by the underneath coverage in Zone defense - DETAILS
* Failure in run fits overall by the front 7 - DETAILS
* Poor angles of pursuit and failure to breakdown on tackles - DETAILS
This falls on positional coaches/coordinators teaching...and falls on the players being receptive and steadfast. And ultimately, all of that falls on the HC.
