[QUOTE="Sunshinepacker, post: 538427, member: 9033"] Many of your points actually indicate failing on TT's part, not Capers. If guys aren't progressing then TT chose poor players. Capers defense has developed Matthews, Daniels, Shields (let's remember he only played ONE year at corner in college), etc. It's apparent that the coaches know how to get guys to play. I don't understand the Jones comment. The guy is the prototype for a 3-4 DE. The only reason we played the 2-4-5 so often is because our pass rushers on the dline are so ineffective that it makes more sense to leave a linebacker in than put in a dline guy that won't accomplish anything. Only time we went to 2-4-5 was in nickel. With a healthy, performing roster of Daniels, Worthy, Jones and Boyd I would expect we'll see more 3-3-5 going forward, if not some occcasional 4-2-5 looks with Perry having his hand in the dirst on obvious passing downs. Confusion on defense has been covered before, there was actually a really good article from Silverstein (I think?) on JSOnline regarding the number of first year guys we have starting on defense. Again, that falls on TT. Just to clarify, I'm not absolving Capers of all blame, the guy is the coach after all. However, I would put the majority of the blame on the front office. Just saying we spent a bunch of picks on defensive players is an empty statement. The Lions spent a bunch of first rounders on WRs a few years ago, did they automatically get an awe-inspiring WR group? [/QUOTE]
