So coaches rate the other wing official lower because they are paying much attention to them and don't really care what their duties are. That would lead me to believe that coaches ratings have little meaning in part because, (a) they appear not to understand the differences between what the wing guys do, (b) they seem to only pay attention to stuff that is directly affecting them, and (c) their general inclination seems to be, "if I'm not watching someone they must not be doing as good as a job."
