If that were the case, then he never would have tried something different in the first place. He wouldn't have let Chan run the spread at all if he were indeed as stubborn as you say. He would have went down in flames clinging to over-conservative offense with a team that couldn't run it. Most Herm critics said he'd never run anything but the R2P2 offense, and they've been proven wrong.

You could make the case that at the point that Tyler became the full-time starter the season was lost. They were 1-5 going to NY to play the Jets so they really had nothing to lose by changing it up.
If you look at how they ran the offense prior to the Jets game they ran R2P2.
But if anyone was going to get credit I would give it to Chan because this has his fingerprints all over it. When he was in Pittsburgh he did alot of different things to help Kordell.
