I just read this dude Spag's bio. Jesus, I'm older than he is! He's been first, and he's been last in defense, and he actually HAS a Super Bowl ring, so maybe he can show guys what it is they're working for. He was a wide receiver in college, so maybe he has a clue how to stop a ****ING SLANT PLAY on third and eight! Everytime I say "Things can't get worse" somebody on the Chiefs grabs a shovel, so I guess we'll see. My pals over in St. Louis hate this guy, because he was the Rams HC and sucked big time. I guess we'll see. If he comes in and sucks, we whack him and go on to bachelor #2.

You’re absolutely right. But we have the best offense in the nfl and Sutton has his guys out there looking confused sometimes on all 3 levels looking like they’re thinking too hard rather than just playing ball. We can be aggressive on D because of our offense. We aren’t a ground and pound time management team like the ravens. They’ve also dumped a ton of resources into their defense.

Vikings had the best d, champ

Do not mistake my frustration with Spags as an endorsement of Sutton.

That was 10 years ago. This is 2019. You don’t have a “set defense” anymore. It’s a lot of mixing and matching to the new NFL that favors offense.

A DC that has his players understanding what they are supposed to be doing would go a hell of a long way.

Well that completely renders my point useless.

Well I agree with your final sentence.

1 Tech-Nnadi
3 Tech-Jones
5 Tech-Kpassagnon/Speaks?
If you keep Ford put him out wide at RDE
Houston at SAM
Hitchens at MIKE
ODaniel at WILL

That's just with the guys we have right now.

No effing way

We'll see how it all plays out, but as of right now this is all shaping up into what Eagles fans were warning us about 6 years ago. I'm just not very confident about the decision making on the Defense by a guy that hired an OL coach as his coordinator once.

The team was dee Ford hand away from the Super Bowl with a historically awful defense. We don't need a risky assistant learning how to be a coordinator. This gives us a competent nfl defensive coordinator. We don't need the 85 Bears defense.

Chris Jones is not a 2-gap player. Seems like he got tired of waiting around because of the gaps requirements and just attacked the QB. His sacks skyrocketed but he was a liability against the run.

Exactly...

The 4-3 under isn’t even all that different from the 3-4 in a lot of ways. But it is a better fit for much of the personnel currently on the roster.

I’m just saying it should be easy to see Reid’s logic. Spag stopped brady. Only one to do it twice. Bringing in a college DC, an NFL position coach or a wildcard personality like Rex would have its growing pains and he wants to win now with no distractions like that. The list that fits that was short. I do think del rio should’ve been considered tho. Didn’t even hear his name and bengals can’t hire him til the rams are done with the Sb

Am I crazy for thinking Dee Ford could be Chris Avril esque for us?
