Don’t disagree here, but his response is to scream at assistant coaches and throw them under the bus to the media in the name of “accountability” which is total BS coming from him. 

Really?  Sitting over here in enemy land, I guess that I have missed a lot of that interaction.

I have noticed some of that.  LEO, eh?

While it may seem to be somewhat out of place...to me it indicates that the coach is emphasizing the need to focus on the next play.  Get pumped up for it.

The previous play may have been awful or a player really goofed up. Learn from it.  But, onward and upward.  Let's go.

Would it be better to demean a player or curse the hell out of them?

A manager has a lot of tools to use.  One I had to keep repeating to myself is 'Listen, and respond with empathy'.  It does not mean to agree.  I needed to remind myself to not respond immediately in a way that would stop any positive motivation on the part of others.

 

 

Well considering being undisciplined seems to be a theme under Allen... maybe ripping into them would help.
