Exactly. Or any number of other reasons.
The bottom line is that a single player's stats, in and of themselves, do not shed any significant light on the coach. Literally every coach ever, from Bowman to Gilbert, has had players blossom under them, and players struggle under them. Sometimes it is because of the coach, or partially because of the coach, and usually it is not about the coach at all.
Building an argument on a singular example like this, and hammering away on it as if it is some nugget of wisdom that others are missing, so it should be repeated over and over, is beyond weak. And screams of propping up an agenda.
