It's not that he can't take the underneath or intermediate stuff. He is fully capable. It is a matter of preference.
However, I expect to see Russ adapting and evolving this year. Efficiently moving the chains > hero ball.
the question is it is just a Russ tendency or the fact that PC himself has said he wants to run the ball and throw long and get chunk plays in the passing game. OR maybe both. I suspect both, n PCs part because that is what he wants. on Wilson's part because that is what has been drilled into him. Now the questions is can they adapt. We know Wilson can, he has done it his whole career and in college. The question is will PC let them continue to adapt or fall back into his pattern of having a short lease and at the first sign of trouble shorten it even more. With a new system will come hiccups will PC let them work through them or revert back to same old same old. W will see.
Yes PC has been about toxic differential.
And yes Russ has been about GAP plays.
I suspect both will adapt this year and we will be happy with this new offense.
