I'd rather have a defensive-centric coach with a good OC, but the problem is that you continually have to replace that OC as he gets tabbed for HC jobs. First they have to find a guy then they have no real hope of keeping him long term. That's why an offensive-minded coach is probably the better play, you don't lose the system when the assistants move on. But you still have to find high quality assistants, especially on the other side of the ball. I'd like Glenn or Flores, but for the OC problem. I'd like Brady if we're doing the unknown, McCarthy if it's a retread.

I agree with the part in bold as I think defensive guys value the importance of dominating the line of scrimmage and playing physical football moreso than offensive guys do. However if we hired an offensive guy with the same mindset I'd be happy with that as well.  Ultimately I just want a guy who wants to build the lines and prioritizes always being the more physical team.

No idea if Liam Coen fits that. Looks like the Bucs became a great rushing team so hopefully that is a sign he does.
