I think I agree with this, honestly. I don't see Gruden or Manusky as having any competitive advantage in the strategy department.

The fact that Gruden's formations exhibit such tendencies, and that plays aren't designed to look alike, pretty much tells you that he knows how to scheme a play, but he doesn't know how to put a defense in a difficult position.

It just seems like a coaching staff that can get 9-7 performance out of 9-7 talent. This will definitely be the season of judgment day for Gruden. You either make the playoffs or you don't.
