There is one undeniable NFL coaching commandment: You cannot hide from your own shortcomings. You can deny them. You can ignore them. You can redirect them toward others or even lie about them. But eventually, the on-field product and the culture off it get chiseled into the epitaph hanging above your permanent record.
