Bill Belichick Playcalling
Hear me out before you downvote.
I'm not saying that we hire BB. In fact, he wasn't even an "offensive minded" head coach and was a defensive coordinator throughout his career before he was the HC of the Pats.
One thing that Belichick did was make playcalling a collaborative effort throughout his career with the Pats. I've heard stories of him walking up to random junior assistants with a play sheet and letting them call a few plays. Maybe this team would benefit from a similar approach. Pass the play sheet between Bobby Slowik, Bill Lazor, Jarrod Johnson, Ben McDaniels, Danny Barrett, and whoever else you feel could give you a different perspective and approach to the offense. Let Bobby continue to handle the day to day and the scripting for the beginning of the game and give the position coaches an opportunity to call plays that emphasize the strengths of their players. Mixon can't get going? Let Barrett call the next few runs. Need a big play from Nico? McDaniels or Lazor get to call a few plays.
I feel that using this approach would be a solid alternative to not only would prevent our playcalling from stagnating but set up our team for life after Bobby by providing future playcallers with valuable in game experience.
