With the way the NFL currently operates, I think looking at a defensive head coach is putting yourself at a disadvantage in most cases.

Possibly. But there's also a lot to be said about offensive coordinators being notorious micromanagers. Seems teams are trend chasing. Ron Rivera, Joe Judge, Brian Flores turned out pretty good. Mcdermott, Vrabel, Harbaugh have been pretty good. I actually think a defensive head coach is a real good idea for the many teams who don't have an easy path to an elite qb.
