If the obvious stuff Gailey does is bad--how bad is the rest?

[Casey D]

The obvious mistakes Gailey makes, as on Sunday, are well recognized-- poor clock management, risk aversion and the wrong time, taking needless risks at the wrong time, underutilizing Spiller, etc. But if as, relatively speaking, we can all see this as casual observers, how bad must he be at the fundamentals of football game planning and coaching that is at a level that we cannot really discern at any detailed level. In other words, if he can't even manage a clock, how can he possibly be matching wits on more subtle and important football things with coaches who are good. He's like having a small town country doctor performing brain surgery. What chance does the patient really have. It just seems to me if he can't do relatively simple things an average fan would do, how bad are his decisions faring at a more granular level versus other professionals who are good at what they do. When I think about it that way, there really is no hope unless we find at least someone who can make basic decisions, and hopefully a little brain surgery too.
