I've been a Phinatic for many a year, and cannot recall an OC who fans liked overall. I remember the complaints with "Dan The Man" needing to run more, Tuna & Company needing adapt to throwing more, and everything before, in between, and after.
Any OC tries to do what is best for his O. He has info that would make most fan's head spin with coaches breaking down miles of tape on every game. He game plans on that info, which sometimes works and other times does not. Understand that there are other opposing coaches on D doing the same thing. From what I have heard and seen, all teams know what the play is going to be on 3 of 4 plays from extensive research on what teams do.
Stat wise, we are about the same as with Lazor last year but, Miller is better (receiver), as our our WR's are better. Tannehill has taken a step backwards.
Unless the OC has great talent, he has to take what the D is giving. If there are 6 or 7 in the box, it's gonna be tuff to run and better to pass and if there are 5 in the box, running is a good idea. Then there are are also player match ups where the numbers do not matter as much. They do consider this.

Most fans have a simple way of evaluating play calls. If it works, good call. If not, bad call. There are not many who go past that before forming an opinion.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Players are the key to success or failure, as they have to execute the play call. To do this they need to block, run, pass, and catch, along with being where they are supposed to be. Sounds simple but, seldom seems to be. How many times this year has Tannehill made the wrong throw? Miller the wrong run lane? All receivers running the right routes and being where they are supposed to be? Don't know, wish I did.
All in all, from what I have seen this year, I have to fault Tannehill and players more than Lazor. JMO
