I think there's a 'micro' and a 'macro' level for looking at issues like this. On the micro level, no, the coaches aren't on the field commiting false starts or contacting receivers illegally after five yards.
But in the overall grand scheme of things, the 'macro' level, the coaches are responsible for creating an environment of fundamentals, of a killer instinct and winning attitude, and of fostering the mentality of players who do the things necessary to finish off opponents, of closing out a victory, of holding a lead, of making in-game adjustments -- we've seen none of that recently.
The blame goes everywhere. There really isn't any other way to look at it.
