Steichen got worse this year.
I don't believe at this point he has the ability to establish/build a culture. He is not personable nor impressive in the way a guy like Dungy was. Pagano was personable, you knew the players liked him.
Steichen looks like an asshole and assholes are only okay when you're winning. I appreciate his sense of urgency after watching Reich's helpless facial expressions but I do not think it resonates with the players.
If Steichen isn't a schematic genius, which he does not appear to be, I'm not sure what the plan is here.
