Well, that sounds like a targeted, superstar offense? That is the mentality that we have, without the superstars. I prefer what McDaniels does, what Norv does, and get production out of everyone, including no names. The Robin Hood offense because it distributes to everybody.
A Targeted Superstar Offense? Is that an actual system or did you just make that up? Doesn't that contradict the above claim that the Lions have tons of weapons?
What I meant was that Linehan does a great job of recognizing the talent he has to work with, and designs multiple ways to suit their strengths. His Situational prowess is top-notch (Red Zone%, 3rd Down%, Yards Per Play, Time Of Possession....areas we have lacked)
Norv does a good job and so does McDaniels, but I would prefer Linehan because:
A) His system isn't digit-based (ours isn't either..not trying to stunt Kap's growth like Alex), Norv's is.
B) McDaniels has personality issues that I don't think will work well here.
C) Linehan has been the most consistent of the above mentioned coaches
