Many of the same issues. Although Buddy had superior talent on defense and had a disdain for offenses including his own. DC hubris runs deep with the Ryans. I’d imagine many confident defensive minded coaches feel their defense can win games for them just as long as the offense doesn’t screw it up. But as a head coach, it is essential that you understand the importance of both sides of the LOS and how they impact the other. Not to say they are ignorant to that fact, but the Ryans over-value their ability to affect the game. That being said, I’d love to have RR on a team with an equally confident (if not arrogant) OC.

My question is – which coaches do you think would have done better? Even Andy Reid couldn’t “save” Mike Vick. I don’t think there’s any coach who could make the hide the secondary any better.

Frankly, I’ve seen many coaches get undermined by poor offense and terrible qb play. Until someone shows me conclusively that RR is specifically sabotaging the offense, I’ll assume RR is suffering the same disease, a lack of a competent nfl quarterback.
