Kubiak's system is largely Shanahan's system and both use smaller, more mobile ZBS OL which means they tend to get blown out by very physical defenses. But there are things they also do very well like taking very mediocre running backs and turning them into stars.
Kubiak, like Shanahan, is also not a defensive coach and so they lean heavily on the DC to cover that part of the game.
So, let's say we dump Kubiak and bring in a guy from the Patriots braintrust. Oh, that's right, look at how Charlie Weis and Josh McDaniels have turned out. Okay, then let's say we dump Kubiak and bring in a guy who really knows defense. Oh, that's right. We had Dom Capers and we saw how that turned out.
So, I say we cool our jets and enjoy the ride a bit longer and, if needed, go get a better DC for 2011. And maybe also get serious about finding a secondary. That would be a big help.
