Is he a guy who will change the team's strategy based on our talent, or will he continue down the path of a smash-mouth, run-first football team?

As of this moment, we are most certainly a high-percentage pass-first offense.

The Cards were a better pass blocking team than smashmouth running team. Maybe he's adjusting to his personnell.

It's been documented that after Leinart went down the Cardinals starter slinging more, to adjust to Warner's style of play.

I think Leinart's youth will benefit from a strong running game.

Were we really a smash mouthed, run first team last year? I don't think so. Whiz has shown he is very flexible to the personnel on board.

I think the moral of the thread is that Whiz adjusted his tendencies based on his team's talent and abilities. That is what good coaches do. Denny Green's tend to keep trying the same thing and expect a different result.

What was Denny's "system," again?
Keep running against eight man fronts all game long no matter what.

Or only run the ball 3 times in one game.


Depends on the situation. Have to be flexible.
