You might have a point if Dungy didn't have a long history of under coaching in the playoffs. Their playoff loss this year wasn't significantly different in their performance than their playoff loss last year, or the year before, or for the Bucs while Dungy was in Tampa. Some coaches just aren't playoff coaches ................. And that really used to be the knock on Cowher, as well -- that his coaching style didn't work in the playoffs. He was more flexible this year, and the results showed. Hopefully, Dungy will learnTalk about inflexible...... look up inflexible in the dictionary and there's a picture of Marty Schottenheimer.

Actually the poster child for the "coach it likes it's a regular game" playoff loss mentality is Levy. Marty suffers from it, Dungy suffers from it, Cowher suffered from it until this year, but among the wonks it's generally called "Levy ball". And it leads to a general lack of league bought jewelry on your dresser.
