So basically Schiano did something that those same people, in this case, don't like so now he is wrong or a dirty coach.

That's not just the Ravens' choice...that's what 31 other teams in the NFL do. There's nothing supposed about this unwritten rule. In literally every game this year where the V-formation/kneel down was used at the end of the game, everyone in attendance knew what to do. It's the understood protocol understood by players and coaches. There's a reason that a first year coach straight from college tried this stunt rather than a coach who's been established in the NFL.
