What does this all mean?
Is he a good defensive mind who had terrible personnel at times? Or is a mediocre coach who needs great players to produce?

It could be that he's a Romeo guy. Terrible at managing players (too nice of a guy) but can do fine if a quality head coach keeps the locker room together. Can't blame him for the bountygate disaster in New Orleans. Don't think you can blame him for mcadoo losing the entire locker room in 2017. He seems to me like a good defensive mind, average scheme, good at coaching players but terrible at managing them.
