People always view this stuff with homer glasses. One week ago, all the talk around here was how the Chiefs' defense was actually good at home. Rather than looking at what QBs they had faced at home (almost all shit), they ignored the warning signs.
Steve Spagnuolo is a guy that had a couple of good defenses a decade ago when he had DE's like Strahan (HOF'er) Tuck, Osi Umenyiora, and JPP.
In 2007, his three best DE's combined for over 300 career sacks.
In 2011, his three best DE's combined for over 210 career sacks.
No shit he had good defenses back then. Christ, Greg Robinson could have coordinated a great unit with that talent.
The best thing you can say about him is that when he had the best DL of the last generation he didn't **** it up, but that's damning with faint praise.
Even in 2016 he had two good-great ends and three All-Pro DBs. No one could **** that up.
