Jim Mora didn’t like Rizzi chewing out Matthew Hayball

Yeah, I didn't see him all red faced, throwing down his headset and yelling in AK's face when he dropped a sure TD pass against the Falcons a few weeks ago that could have cost us the game.

But AK isn't in "his unit". Some coaches legitimately expect the best out of their group- and when something like technique and protocol breaks down due to someone abandoning their responsibility on a given play, the guys who are all about "protocol" are gonna lose their minds lol

I'm not saying he didn't lose his mind a little too much (on the surface), but i don't think it's a fair comparison when he clearly still considers the ST to be his unit that he's fully responsible for, even moreso than the rest of the team. TBH- to Rizzi, I'm sure a punter like Hayball is the perfect guy to blow up on if you're trying to demonstrate that you're capable of showing some emotion and getting on someone's tail when they mess up like he did. It probably takes a while for a coach to change how they hold "their guys" accountable or confront them when an in-season elevation happens like this year.
