Yeah, I hear that a lot. That he's too soft on players, but I don't see it...
I will say he has a laid back demeanor. He's not "Chucky," but what Redskins coach has been more critical of their players?
He called out RG3
Matt Jones . . . You fumble and don't improve year over year, you are cut in favor of Mack Brown.
Doctson. You don't practice you don't play.
Sua - figure your shit out . . . Next man up.
He blew up a D line that had some talent but wasn't performing. . . How's that working out?
Compton is a coach favorite, but with two more talented players he's become backup, and even Spaight is getting playing time over him.
Anyways, I respect your perspective and like I said, he doesn't have that fire on the sidelines, but do you have any examples of him being easy on his players?

Good assessment. He sees the team as a meritocracy in the best sense of the word. He's not a sentimental guy; he wants results. And he also values leadership and hard work (hence, his tendency to be pretty patient with folks who seem to be working hard and have ability -- e.g., Ryan Grant).
Personally, I like the fact that he seems like a straight shooter and that he tends to be pretty succinct with his responses (but not monosyllabic or disdainful in an evasive Bellichick-speak kind of way). I also like the fact that he seems to have a sense of humor and isn't afraid to show it here and there.
Moreover, his hires of Tomsula, Callahan, Gray, and Manusky seem very solid and so he seems to have a knack for surrounding himself with some good people. (I am still smiling over the images of Tomsula stalking the sidelines during the Raiders game.)
I'm cool with Jay Gruden as coach. He seems like a genuinely good guy and I think the players play hard for him and each other.
