Lol, look at that defense the year before the LVII SB. They were around 25th. The following year they're top-10. And look at the beginning of that season and the stats, W/L, and tell me that anyone thought that was a top-10 defense. Because no one thought that. But they kept working, and by the end of the season they were a top-10 unit. that beat the best offense in NFL history. They allowed just two TDs in that SB.
Look at the STL defense when he got there. 30th, iirc. The following season, top 12.
Then he goes back to NYG, after one season with NOR, and takes that bottom third defense and makes them a top-third defense.
And so on.
I'm not saying he's the greatest ever, because he obviously has some flaws, but to say he isn't a top 10 DC is kind of ignorant. History is pretty clear about that.
