It certainly felt to me that as the season went along he became far less predictable and abandoned the run-first mentality that has so often typified him.I think most coaches that keep their jobs attempt to do so by featuring what their team does best. Sometimes, it takes a while to figure out what that is. For years, Shaw ran the ball and pounded into the line because it worked. When it stopped working, it took a bit of experimentation to determine we could pass lots better than we could run. Next year, I expect Shaw will try to return to type a bit. I hope we have the OL to do so.
