I don't follow it either.  And I'll add that playing a 4 down lineman  
defense wouldn't have resulted in any more yards or points and maybe  
would have given us some semblance of a pass rush.  So there are two  
things he could have done differently.

Heck, mix in the 3 down lineman look if you want. I'm a firm believer  
that defense is all about disguising what you are doing, changing  
looks, getting in the head of the QB a bit.  We did none of that  
Saturday and haven't done it in any of the other games, either.

Stubborn, as described by Daniel is a good description.  Stubborn to  
the point of being "un-sound".
