Mediocre NFL coaches are always interested in copying the “next hot thing” that innovative coaches are doing around the league in order to try and keep up with the trends. This, of course, ignores the fact that the innovative coaches are continuously innovating and will always be better than the coaches that are a few years behind in the times.
But, hey, mediocre teams stay mediocre for a reason.
And this year, coaches will be watching just two innovative offenses, according to Sports Illustrated’s Andy Benoit: the San Francisco 49ers and the Los Angeles Rams.
