You don't want drivers that are useless without a coach telling them every single move to make - they can work but there's a lot to lose doing that.
The Coach should always have final say over what happens - but if the Coach has to watch the team's robot for more than a little at a time there's wasted potential. You want your two drivers to be able to intuitively work together and execute basic tasks - i.e. if they're told to "score that tube" they can effortlessly get in position, grab it, raise it, release. This way the Coach can focus on the clock and the rest of the field to figure out the next moves without having to micromanage a drive team.
