Not like he has done in these two weeks but he may have a very good reason for doing it. He may trust his offense a lot more to convert a 4h down or execute a fake punt than he does his defense to get a stop.
Like a QB with a desperation mode like Romo had, they think they have to score every time because they do not trust the defense. McC might have that. And he's got that TOP in LA to remind him of that.
The other issue is that he doesn't know his team well yet and how they will respond. Some offenses turn it up a notch when the HC puts that kind of faith in them and execute even better but so far, that has not been the case with this offense. It is more of an execution issue than the call.
The call in LA was a bad one, the circumstances warranted tying the game and not firing up the opposition. However, this was different yesterday as he knew he had to increase the possessions for his offense because ATL was answering whenever DAL closed the gap.
We question it, the media question it but it is not a problem until the players start to question it. He is trying to get his team is a position to win and as long as that's happening, they will have his back.
That Riverboat moniker was first used on Rivera, Riverboat Ron, and his team loved his willingness to go for it. We do not know if this is a good or bad thing for this team yet
I think McC fears his own D more than going for it with his O and I can't blame him. The D is giving up an average of 29.5 a game, that might make any HC go for it a lot.
