I can already hear the "retread" groans, but you're absolutely right... i could get behind him as an OC.
The only caveat i would have to add with him, is that i would want a top flight QB coach to work hand in glove with him.
He's a solid schemer, but i have doubts about how well he can communicate those ideas to his QB... yes, he made thiggy look atleast competitive, but aikman was known to have hated working with him and he didnt exactly make fitzpatrick shine - like weis did with cassel to an extent - either.
He's good, but needs a great HC to keep an eye on things and a quarterback coach to keep his guy focused and on the right track.
