I'm sure it wasn't TT's decision to have only 4 DL active for the Seattle game - that was Capers. Last year he ran the 2-4 nickel as his base most of the time, only running a 3-4 20% of the time... his commitment to stopping the run consisted of the "jumbo nickel", which was the worst of both worlds - clearly that didn't work against either the run or the pass. Surely Capers had a lot of say in who to keep, and who to jettison... and he doesn't seem to be too panicked about Jones and Hawk as his ILB's. TT shares a lot of the blame, but Capers could be making better use of the personnel he does have available to him, and that is why he needs to go.</blockquote>
