Part 6/10:
Glenn hinted at the possibility of starting veteran Tyrod Taylor, who is recovering from injury, but did not definitively confirm the decision. The crux is whether this decision is genuinely Glenn’s or if it’s being pressured by Johnson’s public criticisms. The analogy of show hosts choosing a segment—who does what is ultimately influenced by the “architect” or owner—illustrates how external forces can sway managerial choices.
If Glenn were to start Tyrod Taylor, it might be perceived as a directive from Johnson, potentially undermining Glenn’s authority and muddling the team’s strategic direction.
This situation raises the critical question: Are coaching staff making independent decisions, or are their choices being dictated by management’s external pressures?
