Even if Fangio is hired as the DC, his responsibility would be to run the defense. I don’t see McDaniel changing the way he runs the offense.Fangio would be an excellent addition to this coaching staff. We need a veteran coach around to balance our HC. Time management was ignored in some very important instances. I was yelling run the ball to eat clock but McD called a flanker screen and it was incomplete stopping the clock and doing the other team a huge favor. This was late in the 2nd quarter against the Bills. We gave Buffalo the ball back with a minute on the clock. There was no earthly reason not to use all the clock and end the half with us scoring for a change. When we gave them a minute I was thinking that Don Shula would be losing it!! I was also thinking no way we hold the Bills to no points here!
While clock management was an issue in some games during the season. I suspect McDaniel realizes this is an area he needs to work on, no matter who the next DC is.
Fangio if he is hired will by hired by McDaniel because he believes Fangio will come in and improve the play of the defense. Not because he wants to hire Fangio to tell him how to run the offensive side of the game.
