What does in game coaching actually come down to?

Half time adjustments

A few calls per game on 4th down situations.

I believe that most games are won before the kickoff.  Game planning and preparation trump in game decisions by a long shot.  The OC and DC in my opinion are the keys to success.  If they are solid and our talent level is adequate, we can win every game on the schedule.  Poor talent and i don't care how good a play caller is we won't be able to execute. Dino wasn't good on game days. I doubt his in game coaching won many games. Last year the preparation with Dan at QB did win us a game or two. It was a brilliant job by the staff with their backs against the wall. Maybe the best coaching job of his tenure.  
Fran is going to win games now. By bringing in talent, creating a tough culture, and surrounding himself with talented coaches.  He is training his players so that games are easier physically than camp. I believe he is going to do the same thing in preparing for our opponents.
