I think I tend to be in between. I think football is about toughness and not finesse so much. I like offenses who run the ball down the defense's throat and once the defense is on the ropes, you hit them with the knock out punch ---- big play action pass to your WR on a go pattern! I like offenses who can chew up 8 or 9 minutes of the clock. To be honest, I wouldn't mind us winning 3-0 in every ball game as long as we win.

So tell me about your favorite offense?

I like offenses that have a rep as a throwing team, maybe 65% passing, but quietly have one of the most efficient running games in the NFL. So you have your back averaging 5.0+ YPC, getting all those big plays while its the passing game that moves the chains. I think that's the way to go in todays game.

As a coordinator, I could see myself doing the opposite of conventional logic as much as possible. I'd probably throw on most first down plays and run on 3rd and mediums. Anything to get that first down, and I wouldn't worry about being a goat in the media for a "questionable call" when I baffle defenses so often.
