In 2022 the Eagles were #2 in yards allowed, trailing only SF by less than 1 yard per game.  They were #1 in sacks and it wasn't even close and they were #3 in turnover differential.  So if it's not Jim Leonhard (who would have gotten a pass from you on being unfairly criticized just because MLF might have hired him) then anyone else has to have a track record of absolute perfection.  Got it.There's no question Gannon has done more than Leonhard in the NFL to prove himself a good NFL DC.  Jim has only managed the defensive passing game in Denver, and while the results have been good, you can't pretend he hasn't benefited greatly from the fact that the Broncos have the best pass rush and opposing QBs barely have time to scan the field.  I'm not saying he won't be a good DC at some point.  But for you to pretend that Gannon isn't just because he didn't play for the Badgers isn't supported by the evidence.</blockquote>
