They say that some of the folks who are truly outstanding and special in their fields are so ultra devoted to that endeavor that they fail to see the minor details swirling outside of it.  I think the movie did a good job showing that he may have been so laser focused on the football team that he just didn't put two and two together sometimes.  Like when JoePa's wife asked him about the time she asked him to go in the pool with their boys but Joe was too focused on the upcoming bowl game that he didn't and Sandusky did.  God I hope that conversation actually happened and Joe realized that his inattention to anything but football exposed his sons to someone he knew shouldn't have that kind of contact.

I'm not giving him a pass at all, just in case my post reads that way.  He should have and could have stopped it decades before it was stopped by someone else.  Joe and his family know what he did.  The scene with the daughter at the table asking about what the boy said was fantastic as well.
