He absolutely strikes me as being the guy that doesn't believe in the "It's the Jimmies and Joes not the X's and O's" mantra. To me he just seems very confident that he can beat everyone with his schemes regardless of the competition he is facing, and would seem to be overly thrilled to win with an underdog squad where he can pat himself on the back. To me, there's way too much Reich ethos with him.
I hate Jimmy Johnson, I don't think he was a great coach, but Jimmy Johnson was the absolute pinnacle of just leaning into the skills and talents of the guys on the roster by recognizing it is a simple game if you just let the talent do the work for you. It was so fucking simple and so damn frustrating to watch.
