Franklin's Strengths & Weaknesses

1. He didn't fully grasp the importance of LOS dominance.
2. He wasn't an Xs & Os scheming/gaming guy.
3. He threw darts when hiring OCs.
4. Large inconguence between QB styles and offensive schemes.
5. Pensonality-wise, he was salesman and was defensive.
6. For being an explosive play guy, why ignore the WR room?
7. Not sure about his relationship with the troops or what style motivated them, but the post-tackle dancing and the personal fouls indicated to me that he was not a disciplinarian.

Lack of mental toughness with his teams which goes to not being a disciplinarian. This all manifested itself in losing close games with poor execution in the clutch.
 
I feel like he always felt he was the underdog. The teams had no swagger. And if he got up on the scoreboard, he puckered up and played not to lose. The USC Rose Bowl, almost every game against tOSU, and most other big games all come to mind when we blew leads. The B1G championship vs Wisconsin was probably gifted to us when Wiscy got up big to start the game.
