Maybe he should hire a real offensive coordinator to run his offense.
We had one, the Jets just hired him.
That's the really maddening thing though. Mullinz is CAPABLE of being aggressive and being close to elite. Early last year and 2007 are examples of that. He usually only does it when he thinks he's a big underdog and has to play this way to win.
He just isn't aggressive naturally. When he sees a play that works he just abandons it, or allegedly circles it to ise again in the 4th quarter. SOS with score 48 in the first half when he found a corner or safety he could pick on.
We'll find a guy that's outmatched then we may not even throw at him the rest of the game, regardless of whether the defense adapts or not.
I'm convinced we just make a game plan and refuse to diverge from it. Second half is usually better, the sign of a pretty good coach, bit the in-game adjustments arent there.
He never deviates from the ball control option even with Trash. He has to try to "establish his run game" almost 50% of the time. We just can't get the Notre Dame out of him. How many drives did he kill by switching to option, option, option, punt even last year with Trash?
