The ability to make adjustments during a game and the ability to fit the offensive and defensive schemes to the abilities of the players is what makes a good coach.Shula was good at it.He first won couple of SBs using a ball control offense and then went to the passing game to utilize Marinos abilities.
On the other hand Dave tries to fit square pegs into round holes playerwise and underutilizes several players such as Konrad,Minor and the TEs.Dave has not shown an ability to make adjustments during a game and is throughly predictable for other teams to anticipate.Remember his philosophy is to keep the game close until the 4th qtr.(That system only works if you dont make mistakes and dont comit penalties).
Due to rules changes this year many teams are going to the 4,5 WR sets.With all the DBs we have in camp we should be able to defend against it.However nothing has been done to take advantage of these rule changes on offense.
I am not saying Dave is a bad coach.Its just that he is too predictable and conservative for todays game.
