The fundamental issue with the "defense or special teams minded HC, paired with a strong OC" is that when you go that route, it's the offensive coordinator that gets thrown to the wolves to save the HC if the playoffs don't happen in year one or two. And the strong OC desire doesn't change that reality.

If the DC gets thrown out after a year or two, you can live with that. Coaching on that side of the ball is pretty fungible. Like, who are the great defensive coordinators in the league? Zimmer...and who, exactly.
