So what does that tell you? Trust me don't let yourself by fooled into thinking that if we changed OC it would make a difference. Herm does have an influence and say in terms of personnel and scheme. This is just the way he coaches and it's his approach to the game. That how he believes he could win by playing a strong defensive game, and just barely managing to grind it out by running the ball and playing ball control on offense. good enough to sqeak out a win. Play it safe, dont turn the ball over etc. Let your defense give you that chance to win. Believe me nothing is gonna change on offense. This is Herm. This is who he is. He still lives in the 90's. That his mentality as a coach. The only way our offense changes is if he is gone.
*And I wanna get back to what you said earlier, you said you called him about every name in the book for not going and at least trying to score some points just before closing the first half. And this is what bothers me about this team. They don't compete well enough. That pissed me off yesterday, not trying to at least give your team a chance to win. And he plays to win the game? At least show it.

His pal Tony Dungy saw the light. That's way the TB teams of the 90s played. I remember TB lost to the Rams 11-6 in the playoffs. 1 TD and the Bucs advance. Their D ground the GSoT down to 11 points!
Dungy gets to Indy and discovers all these weapons and liked it. Maybe that's Herm's challenge: he's never had a really potent offense (unless you count the one that took the fiel vs Cincy in September 2006)...
