Give must coaches a qality QB, a top notch offensive line, a future HOF TE, and another TE who is an excellent blocker, a FB who excells at blocking, an all-pro RB, a second RB that looks to have the potential to do who knows what, and a decent (though not-great) WR, and they'll look pretty good at their job...
Yes, the OC does play a role in the success of that group, but the group itself has just as much if not more to do with it (as we saw earlier this season with Roaf being out).
I don't think Saunder's problem is being too cute. I think he has the same problem the rest of the coaches seem to have: he can't adjust worth a squat. He's a one-trick pony. It's part of the reason why this O could only muster 3 points against a team like buffalo. If cute works, then hey, be cute all you want... but if what you're doing fails, then you have to adjust--figure out the opponant's weakness and attack.
We need a coach who will do that in-game. I don't know if Saunders just doesn't see it or is just that stubborn, but I want him as the HC as much as I want DV to return... and that's about the desire of having a plague of boils upon my butt.
