It seems like there are 2 trains of thought when it comes to coaches.

1. We are going to do what we do, and what we do best, and if you beat us, you beat us.

then theres:

2. We are going to adapt and evolve and adjust and actively change, giving us the best chance to beat you.

Phillips was a #1 type personality, McVay and his stubbornness to evolve off the 11 personnel makes him seem like a type 1, but he wanted a type 2 DC.

I personally like type 2s. personal preference obviously. I love the flexibility it gives you, because I think for the most part, teams will eventually figure you out if all you do is the same thing over and over.
