[QUOTE="boisenjm, post: 238980, member: 1502"] When people bring up last year, the record, the defense being atrocious and even put weight on it is crazy. Last year cannot be used as any sort of measuring stick to where the defense can and hopefully will be. People tend to forget that we lost an integral part of our defense on every level through injury. Jenkins- arguably the best DL next to Kampman Barnett- by far and away our best LB Bigby- one of the few guys on our D that intimidates and can really bring the thunder (does anyone remember how he started to come on in the playoffs last year) Couple these huge injuries with Sanders' ineffective coaching and scheme and the defense had exactly the amount of success I would imagine. Yes TT could have had more depth at key spots like D-line but there were some guys on that line that looked like they had some skill and just didn't show it. Whether it was underachieving or the result of bad coaching I don't know. All I have to say is that with a better scheme (the 3-4) as well as much better coaching (Capers, Trgovac, and what-the-heck, Greene) coupled with hopefully a healthy Jenkins, Barnett and Bigby; in addition to a significant FA signing or two and a top notch Draft pick this defense should be humming in no time.
