He undoubtedly understand the need for it, but apparently has no clue how to achieve it.
That's what seems so painfully obvious.

I assume most of the "Fan Panic" is due to the glut of skill position talent

My opinion is that fans can critique scheme and play calling all they want. Keep it about football. Never get personal.

Fans have gotten countless coaches fired. So your theory is pretty bad.
