But not all players have the same abilities. For example asking a TE who struggles in pass protection to pass protect or asking a blocking TE who isn't a good receiver to get open and catch 10+ times a game are coaching mistakes.
An old coaching mantra I believe in: you're either coaching it OR allowing it to happen. Its up to the coaches to put players in positions where they'll have success.
We can agree to disagree. I thought it was going to be an issue going into the game and that's how it turned out.
