Absurd conservatism. Do I really need to give you examples? He rarely goes for it on 4th and short despite having the best qb in the league. Is terrible at balancing run vs pass selection on first and second down. Kicks a field goal to go down 4 instead of going for it. His clock management is also god awful. That isn't to say he's a terrible coach, just not a great one.
Don't need examples, but not having them to back up an opinion does not make for a strong opinion.
I can think of many examples of not being conservative during recent weeks. Went for it on 4th and 1 yesterday. Throwing on 3 and 1 to Adams for a TD against the Vikings. Throwing the ball on 3rd down instead of running to pick up the first against the Jets and seal the game. Trusting the defense yesterday by not going for it was actually very aggressive. He was going for two scores and the win instead of one and a tie. Consistently, they throw deeper than needed to pick up a first on third down and score or pick up big yardage: two TDs vs. the Bears doing that.
Against the Vikings went run, run on 1st and second 9/22 series and did 6/29 yesterday. (I break the 6/29 further in the Studs vs. Duds post.) Clock management yesterday also was 3 seconds away from being perfect.
