it's crazy how often coaches blow the simplest playcalling. why would you run some elaborate pass route down the field on 3rd & 2? and then again on 4th when the running game has been so solid? it's just nuts

They all try to get too cute. I remember one year, in either the Capital One Bowl or Outback Bowl, Arkansas was in the red zone going in for the win, as a dog. They had McFadden, Felix Jones, and Peyton Hillis. Houston Nutt, who was otherwise a genius that year, threw the ball four straight times.

Coaches will fall in love with a play that's effective in practice. Then they call it in a game without considering whether it applies to the down, distance and formation that they're facing.

 

Then they're shocked when it gets destroyed in a game.

 

Most coaches favorite play is the run up the middle for no gain.
