He was smarter about how he used those personnel groupings even if you saw the run or pass coming. The pass plays he did call (regardless of formation) were able to milk more production from Bortles while mitigating his mistakes. They moved AR15 around in the formation to create more mismatches and they utilized the TE underneath more often. The spark generated in the run game by clever use of Grant situationally should also not be ignored as something different from Hackett post-Gus.

Anyway -- I don't see any of these "stats" as any indication of what we'll see from Hackett and Wash in 2017. And that's all that matters to me now. 

2016 is long gone and I'm happy to leave it behind.

There were myriad questionable coaching issues last year. It seems like over the final two weeks, the remaining staff was at least aware of a handful and took steps towards addressing them. 

I have no clue for sure, but I'm skeptical they could change that much in week 15 even if they wanted to. They probably picked a few of the biggest issues to concentrate on and went to work.
