I think he does a great job of striking the correct balance between "I am the coach" but "I am also one of you"
The team seems to respect him as a leader him but also really likes him as a friend

I am not sure that "full time officials" will make a difference - what will they do with the extra time to get better at making split second decisions in a live action games at a packed stadium?
I think some sort of replay / review / challenge system would fix a lot of the egregious mistakes - e.g, the two non face mask charges last night against Burrow
To make it fair, in the playoffs, if the receiving team in OT scores a TD, the other team gets a chance as well
So why is this not the rule in the regular season?
