Just play our game and we'll win. That may be a good base philosophy, but when you're faced with a mismatch that's preventing you from playing your game, in-game adaptations must be made and quickly. I suspect I'm preaching to the choir on these boards.
How about a military history analogy or two--Consider the battlefield general: this is our plan, it was well-developed by some really smart guys, and we're sticking to it regardless of how the battle actually unfolds on the field. That's Burnside at Sharpsburg and Fredericksburg. That's France's mighty Maginot Line. Military (and sports) history is littered with such examples.
The real world includes some fluidity. You've got to think on your feet.
Despite all this, I'm still glad we have Herman as our head coach.
