Over the long grind of a regular season, I would agree that a coach who lacks an attention to detail would decrease his team's chances to win.

In the playoffs though (a pretty short span), that kind of factor is nullified by the increased energy level of the players. I think SD is a relatively safe pick to be a final 4 team next year, and maybe the SB champ.

Then again, it's the NFL and no team--regardless of talent--has a better than 60-65% chance to even win their division. I wouldn't give any team a better than 20% chance to win the SB preseason.
