Perseveration and hyperfocus aare two sides of the same coin and it's a frontal lobe construction, not a mindset, issue.
McVay is at once a seer of the forest AND the trees allatonce, and prone to fixating on one pinecone in the process.
When he gets the pinecone figured out he'll incorporate it into his more global view. But certain things have to be done in an order that only he may understand. It may be a slow process but it'll be there and when it is, it'll work as part of the whole. Look at the run game f'rinstance... it's more than handing the ball off X% of the time. In his mind all the pieces have to be working.
