Not at all a fan of Pettine. Sutton can run the Ryan scheme as well as anybody. The problem is the scheme, not the coordinator. The best defenses in the league are aggressive and Pettine's will give us more of the same. For the same reason we should avoid an unaggressive zone like Sean McDermott's.
If we're going after a defense, it should be more like Pittsburgh, Carolina, or Minnesota. I actually think Carolina is realistic because it's a lot like Jim Johnson scheme. Don't see why it couldn't also be run with a 3-4 front.
